Oiselle

Oiselle is a fierce tribe of women comprised of runners and athletes of all stripes. It’s a Seattle-based retail company with global reach and impact, and I was so lucky to get to do a lifestyle shoot with them recently. Our original plan was scrapped entirely by one of Seattle’s classic snow storms, so we […]

If you live in LA or Denver just do yourself a favor and click here and book yourself a mani or a pedi at Base Coat Nails.  I went to the location in the LA Arts District with my sister last month and had a wonderful experience from start to finish.  I sipped on a […]

Thankful for Thanksgiving

I had the most wonderful time in LA last weekend at my sister & brother-in-law’s house.  They threw an all day shindig with a gorgeous patio dinner that just melted away all my stress.  For the whole day, I didn’t worry about what was going on at work, or on my Facebook, or in email, […]

I had my passport before I had even turned 1.  Before I was eighteen I had moved 5 times. Since then, it has been a move almost every single year.  That’s a lot of packing tape and trips to Home Depot.  For all intents and purposes, I am a modern nomad, endlessly searching for a […]

Happy long weekend everybody!  We had a rainy weekend here in Seattle and I’ve taken to organizing around my apartment.  This culminated in an impromptu gallery wall project which only took about 30 minutes to pull together.  It was much easier than I anticipated.  Over the years I’ve been slowly building a collection of poster […]

Fun with lenses: Canon 50mm 1.8

When I’m tossing and turning about something I look for a few comforts.  Typically it’s flowers, music, and wine.  You can’t really go wrong there.  Thankfully this time my little lens project is on tap so I played with backgrounds, styling, and time of day to see how things would pan out at 50mm 1.8. […]

Back on the smoothie train and loving it!  Here’s another spicy one to really get you going in the morning!  Thanks to the Free People Blog for sharing this one.  Great challenge for me to really start seeing what I have to work with around the apartment (light, plates, backgrounds, surfaces) and where I can […]

Morning Coffee

So this documentation thing is is kind of addicting.  I’m having a great time with it though so the experimentation continues.  Again, with my 50mm at 1.4.  I suppose the more I test the more comfortable I’ll feel with every option.  Today I played with some different backgrounds for the same subject (coffee beans!) and […]
