Clayspace and Josh Copus
We spent a day with Josh Copus in Asheville, NC at Clayspace, the co-op he started. Josh does beautiful things with clay and we enjoyed spending time with him. We especially enjoyed our lunch break down the street at 12 Bones -- amazing BBQ! We look forward to seeing the feature on Josh in the February issue of OUR STATE magazine.
Kathryn + Joseph
One of my favorite chefs, Chef Joseph Lenn of Blackberry Farm is getting married! He's found a wonderful and beautiful partner, Kathryn. We are so excited to photograph their wedding next May. In October, we captured some engagement pics for them. It was a perfect fall day. All the best to you Joseph and Kathryn. Enjoy your engagement!
