When I returned home from my brief trip to New Jersey earlier this week, it was like leaving Summer at the Shore behind me in my rearview and finally entering the true ‘New England Autumn’ aesthetic head-on as soon as I crossed state lines. While my time in Asbury Park had been filled with sunshine, […]
With my dear friend/neighbor/photographer/mixologist, Dan (he’s a man of many titles and talents!) recovering from a recent illness and myself having been traveling all over New England over the past few days- we haven’t had time to get together recently for any outings or photo shoot adventures.
