andrea & ryan (beloved)

wonderful friends,

it never ceases to amaze me,,, the unique and diverse depth i find in the connections between the lovely people i work with.


pause for a moment, if you will, and think of the 5 people you love most in the world,,,

you'd probably say you 'love' each of them, right? but each differently, yes?

and the gift they are to you, that's different too. as in, they each give you something no one else in the world could give you in just exactly that way.


i believe that who we are, that preciousness at the core of us, and the way we share it is has its own signature, as rare and perfect as a fingerprint.

my work with Beloved is very much about exploring that invisible signature, and expressing it in a way it will be seen again and again for the supreme preciousness it is.


my work is not about making people look beautiful. they were born far more beautiful than anything i could ever make.

all i do is create an honest space for them to share that beauty, a clear stage, for the symphony of who they are to play.

it is not my song, it is their own. i'm just a conductor. a conductor, and a stunned audience of one, time and time again, brought to a very real awe at the miracle that life is, and this ability we have to give it.


i had the opportunity to do a brief session with Andrea & Ryan when i was last in my home state of indiana. the energy released during the session had a tangible affect on the three of us, surely, and, i wouldn't doubt, anyone nearby, whether or not they were even aware of it.

the mind has a tendency to ignore what it cannot see. there are entire worlds we have missed because of this, my friends.

i go to find them.
