Lara & Charles’s Engagement Session
Thursday, November 18th, 2010Had a great session with future doctors Lara & Charles a few weeks ago. Its always wonderful to work with a couple that is fun and spontaneous: they needed very little direction. Mom says that Lara looks a bit like a young Meg Ryan, and I totally see that. We got just about the last of the fall color at Percy Warner Park, and then did a quick set of photos on Vanderbilt’s campus after dark.
Thanks for a fun session guys!
Congratulations Andrew!
Tuesday, November 16th, 2010My big brother Andrew is Executive Chef of Sepia Restaurant in Chicago, IL. We got some HUGE news today. Andrew’s restaurant was awarded a star by the renowned Michelin Guide. The Michelin Guide is by FAR the most important guide for people serious about cuisine worldwide. The guide rates restaurants on a scale of 1-3 stars, which correspond to the original purpose of the guide to promote auto travel (and thereby sell tires) when it was founded in the early 1900′s.
* Worth a stop
** Worth a detour
*** Worth a special journey
In modern terms, getting a Michelin star is a HUGE achievement. Only 23 restaurants in all of Chicago received a star or more from the Guide. Getting a single Michelin star is generally considered to be a much bigger deal than getting 4 or 5 stars from any American publication. You can see a full list of Chicago honorees here.
Congratulations Andrew! We are hugely proud of you!
