New York City was crazy. But it made me, and so I'll always love it, and I'm certainly permitted to slander it.

True rumor: it's breakneck. I've since slowed down. A lot. And it's my hope that you all will benefit from this slower pace the same way that I have in these recent years.

I won't give you anything fast. I'm nearly guaranteed to not accommodate anyone last minute. And it's mostly with you kept in mind.

I want you to have more nuanced context for your collection of images. I want you to receive the highest quality possible, at every stage of my career, because I don't know everything and I'm never not learning something. I want you to benefit from how I'll outdo myself after the previously completed project.

If you're cool with all that, then I'd love to work with you.

But let me know if you're allergic to cats. I am, but mine is a shorthair, so I'm fine, for whatever that's worth.
