Shari Franke's book "The House of my Mother" is a NY Times Best Seller

Wow, this is pretty incredible. I had the honor of photographing the cover image for Shari’s book “The House of My Mother.” We just learned it debuted at number 1 on the NY Times Best Seller list! Some of the images from the shoot have found their way onto multiple news and editorial outlets. It feels incredible to be part of something this meaningful. Shari was an absolute pleasure to work with. She came into the session knowing exactly the feeling she wanted to portray, and luckily, it was exactly what I was envisioning as well. Rarely are the subject and the photographer fully aligned; sometimes, you need to spend some time getting there. Shari carries her story inside and did a masterful job of emoting it through her eyes and expression. Thank you so much, Rebecca Lima, for styling Shari for the shoot and Paula Dahlberg for not only doing the hair & makeup but also being a calming presence and a great listener.
