Through a stroke of luck, I met Madelyn while I was working at a performing arts center to help supplement my college tuition, and the theater happened to be hosting an a capella competition for high school students from the neighboring states. At this time, I was just starting out in photography and was looking for new faces to put in front of my lens. Madelyn was competing in the event and when I ran into her, I asked her if she was interested in collaborating in a shoot. Little did I know, she wasn’t from the area, but she would be moving to New York for college next Fall. I was so excited when Fall came around and we got to shoot together. Madelyn is such a wonderful woman with so much talent.
