forge | red bank, nj interior lifestyle photography

The newly opened shop Forge in Red Bank, NJ was one of the first projects I shot once things loosened up and I was able to get back to work. It is a gorgeous home decor and personal goods store that believes in only selling items that are made individually or in small batches handcrafted by skilled and passionate makers who have developed their talents through hours, days and years of honest dedication to the craft. Each and every item is handpicked by the shop owner Alex. It is a beautiful addition to the NJ shore area.

a beautiful west coast seaside home | lifestyle photographer

Last week had me back in Vancouver for two polar opposite events. One was to say goodbye to an old childhood friend who passed away suddenly, the other was to attend a workshop with a photographer and stylist who I’ve admired for years. Tracey Ayton is one of those talented people who is always the photographer in my favorite glossy Canadian interior design magazines. Timing was on my side and it allowed me to spend a fabulous day with her and two other creatives in her beautiful west coast seaside home. As you can see, every detail in her home is thought out to precision. The only regret is that I didn’t meet her insta-famous dog, Frankie!
