Philadelphia Documentary Photographer | Pop-Pop

This blog has become a place where I can share both personal and professional work. My hope is that it will be a way for me to look back upon my adventures with photography in years to come and reflect.

There are days where I struggle with finding a balance. How do I ensure I remain true while also representing my business in the way I wish it to be seen?  I may not ever find the answer, but what I do know is that documenting my everyday can only help me refine my skills and ultimately translate into better work for my clients.

So I guess what I’m trying to say is… here is another personal post!

“If you want to know what someone fears losing, watch what they photograph. ”

This quote couldn’t sum up this set of photos any better.  I took these almost 2 years ago on a random Saturday afternoon. All I wanted to do was document my Grandfather at home—the home that I grew up in.  These photos show a snippet of his morning rituals, love of crossword puzzles, and the kitchen table (it’s had 5 generations gather around it over the last 20 years!) where he spends a lot of his down time. This man sacrificed so much to help raise me and I truly hope he knows how much he means to me. These photos will always tell the story of a kind, generous, loving soul.
