Celebrating conscious design, local talent, and the movement shaping a more mindful fashion future.

I recently had the pleasure of photographing the Hudson Valley Sustainable Fashion Show at Rose Hill Farm in Red Hook, NY. I attended this event last year as a guest, but this year I had the unique opportunity to experience it from behind the scenes—capturing the designers and models both backstage and out on the runway.

It was so special to be part of their big day, especially because I believe deeply in their mission to educate the community about fashion’s impact on the planet. Hudson Valley Sustainable Fashion Week celebrates local artisans, conscious creators, and the movement toward a more mindful approach to style—reminding us all that sustainability is sexy.

HVSFW is organized by Kaitlyn of Après L’amour, Joanne Louis-Paul, and Annie of So Vicki Fashion. Hosted at Rose Hill Farm in Red Hook, New York.
