SAINT JAMES PHOTO is named after and dedicated to my dear grandfather, James Petit. He was a kind, gentle soul and a great photographer. His deeply cherished and quick-witted wife, my nana, would lovingly and sarcastically tease him with the name "Saint James," implying he was not always the sweet and considerate man that everyone perceived him to be (though he really was). He left behind a legacy of living an intentional life, always being fully present, and finding (and capturing) beauty in all things, all people and in every moment, This is the legacy I carry with me in my own photography and throughout my life.
