Fun Stuff
It’s the weekend!!! That means I have a little more headroom to edit photos, shoot more photos, and then edit some more! I have to say, with all the snapping I’ve been doing I’m starting to really get into a rhythm. I just bring my camera and if anything happens while I’m out, great. I’ve […]
A couple of weeks ago when I was wandering around Portland with my sister we were on our way to the bus stop and I veered off to take this picture. I think it took me 5 solid minutes to compose it just so and of course – we missed our bus. But the more […]
I refuse to call myself a coffee snob but I do know a damn good cup of coffee when I taste one. On the suggestion of a friend I zipped through Portland with my sis to check out Coava Coffee Roasters on Grand. There’s something undeniably spectacular about a truly well crafted cup. It’s art. […]
And for some completely unknown reason my cute co-workers decided to sport their Star Wars tees today. Now, being a big fan of the series and an even bigger fan of these great people I had to document it. Used the phone which is by no means the best option – but hey it was […]
What a night! I got to celebrate the birthday of my lovely and awesome sister Marie. She’s honestly the best and I’m so glad she’s in my life!

Another batch from New York! This set is in color. Honestly, I don’t know how we squeezed so much into 2 and a half days but I had the best time. I hit up the U.S.Open, American Museum of Natural History, Central Park, a Harlem jazz club, and many other spots around Manhattan.
I used to be pretty irritated with selfies. They seemed so self indulgent. Then at some point I warmed up to them and I stopped putting so much judgement around them. There’s something about facing yourself and capturing that moment and saying ‘I am here.’ ‘I exist.’ Really it’s just like self-portraiture, which through the […]
New York can be an intimidating and overwhelming place. For someone like me who needs a lot of wide open spaces and fresh air the city can sometimes push in on me. Thankfully, I’m also a wanderer and that takes over when I’m there. This past week I stumbled upon Petite Shell, a delicious pastry […]
I’m slowly but surely getting into the habit of bringing my camera everywhere. It’s starting to get more familiar and less uncomfortable or embarrassing to pull out. Tonight I brought it along to movie night. SIFF is featuring women in cinema right now so it seemed like the perfect opportunity to get together for some […]
