Best of 2016
Music, weddings, races and my cute kids once again filled the frame in 2016. My first Indian baby shower, two bat mitzvahs and several new corporate event opportunities were also big highlights. Looking forward to what lies in store for 2017! Enjoy, and thank you for taking interest in my work. Photos are listed in chronological order.
