Friends this was quite a week.  Emotional and trying.  I’ve been more grateful than ever for friends and family to commiserate with.  It has been a time for love and understanding and a desire to move on and lean into hope.  With that I say cheers and positive kind thoughts to you wherever you are.

Weekend Cocktail

It’s funny how with time, you learn so many more interesting things about yourself.  For instance, I really really like time on my own and I freaking hate being over-scheduled.  But when things are more spontaneous and the mood strikes I apparently like to do lots and lots of things. I had a jammed packed […]

This past week I hopped over to the Seattle Art Museum with some pals and was treated to the most glorious exhibit of Kehinde Wiley’s work.   For weeks I’ve seen friends posting about it on my Instagram feeds but nothing could have prepared me for the beauty of his work, the scale of his […]

Spring Spaces

I cannot believe Spring is finally here!  Winter was a long haul this year.  For the first time I was actually effected by the lack of sun.  Apparently it was the wettest winter on record for the Seattle area so I suppose I had a reason.  Anyway, as I emerge out of the cozy, reset […]

He’s 11 […]

Star Wars Day

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 […]

I am so lucky to have such amazing sisters.  I am truly so grateful for them and the special time we have when we’re together.   Thanks to a work trip this week, I got to spend time with my sister Marie in San Francisco.  Not only did we have a good catch up but […]

Happy Canon Day!

In what might amount to one of the biggest leaps forward in my photo career I have upgraded to a full frame camera.  I’m so excited and I can’t wait to get started.  The difference from my previous crop frame 7D to the 5d Mark III is tremendous.  My lenses will now be reflective of […]
