derek viveiros

derek viveiros is an actor in los angeles. he is also the first friend i made when i moved to LA six years ago. aside from being so darn pretty to look at, derek is such a blast to hang out with. i had a great time just playing around while getting some promotional images for him to use.

verve magazine

last fall i shot this photo for asheville's highland brewery brochure (a class assignment). 

in the january issue of VERVE, a magazine celebrating female professionals, my photo was used to represent women in the alcohol industry. in the photo is erica nelson, who is in charge of quality analysis and quality control at highland brewery, one of asheville, north carolina's oldest craft beer makers.

(apologies for the wrinkle in the scan of the magazine!)
