So if you’re gay, Malmö, Sweden is the place to visit. Strange way to open a blog post? It shouldn’t be. We arrived in Malmö after a crazy long day of traveling from Rothenburg ob der Tauber (26 hours, 8 connections), and many of those trains had a pretty decent WIFI connection, which meant I…
Rothenburg ob der Tauber (Rothenburg “on the Tauber River”) is a tiny medieval town in Germany, situated at the top of the “Romantic Road”. It took us several connections from Switzerland to get there, and when we finally did we arrived late at night straight from our 3 day stop in Switzerland (because of course we…
Here it is, my Paris Walking Guide! Paris has so much to do and so much to see, you don’t want to waste time sitting on your phone searching for things to do. And I don’t know about you, but I hate going to a new city and wasting money or time on attractions and food…
As the week of SNAP Retreat was drawing to a close (see Bahamas Part I), I was on the hunt for one last thing. With all the storms taking place all week (something every local described as a very odd occurrence), I hadn’t gotten a chance to shoot underwater hardly at all. When Katie Storr…
Last month Rachelle Kathleen and I picked Lowe’s as our unconventional photo spot for my “ugly places/pretty photos” challenge (which I updated to ‘ugly spots, pretty shots’ because it just sounds better). Remember, the whole point of this is to shoot on the fly, in an ‘ugly’ spot, photographically speaking. This month, we gave LP…
A few weeks ago, a model friend of mine, Rachelle Kathleen, and I were planning to meet for a fun little photo shoot. Instead of searching out the usual beautiful locations around where we live, I had the idea to do just the opposite. I wanted to go somewhere “ugly” by all conventional photography standards,…
Fair warning: this is not going to be a happy post. I’m really not even sure how to start this. Even as I’m writing I’m not even sure I’m going to publish it. I’m just awake in my bed, desperately trying to make any sense of this weekend, and so often the only way I…
I love double exposures. They’re like a puzzle that has a million different ways of fitting together. Find that perfect combination and you’re rewarded with something extra special. This last winter was pretty rough, and I definitely needed something a little extra special. I won’t get into details here, but like so many others I found…
Today was my wedding day. It wasn’t a very big wedding. We’d actually been planning to get married in August, but after we found out I was pregnant (yay!), a very simple fact was staring us right in the face – I needed insurance. Now. Plus I’d be about 8 months pregnant in August, and…
I have had a shitty, shitty week. Not like the kind of week, where you have a flat tire, an overdraft fee and get gum stuck in your hair, but the kind that makes you question everything about who you even are in the first place. The kind that leaves you feeling lost, confused and hopeless….
