A Brooklyn in Brooklyn

Yesterday I had the fantastic pleasure of photographing Sean Crowley, neckwear designer, and Meredith Modzelewski at their home in Brooklyn.  We made lots of pictures for my personal book project, The Dandy Portraits.  Watch for the full post coming soon!  In the meantime, here is a tasty tidbit...Mr. Crowley expertly mixed up these exquisite little Brooklyn cocktails, which tasted as good as they look.
