The title explains it all. This band of artists/beauty seekers is PUBLISHING an ANTHOLOGY! We’re calling it “A Cultivated Life,” inspired by none other than Sarah. The whole idea spurted forth one day in Sarah’s kitchen, as sunlight bounced off all the copper and bathed the Pavoni in a warm afternoon dappled glow. Sarah, we […]
One of my last summer strolls in the city before whisking away to Provence and then the flurry of goodbyes. This was just a few weeks after I arrived back in the city, as I hungrily scurried the streets for beauty that only Paris does well. From the 7th to the 18th arrondissements, this is […]
If you’ve been hanging with me on Instagram, you know that I’ve been talking about a print shop for a looooong time. Like, six months. So, I’m super happy to finally say that the print shop is LAUNCHING on August 20th! There will be a limited number of digital downloads and fine art prints available. […]
Download the Free Provence Travel Guide This post is the last in a series of three covering the things to do in Provence. Welcome to Verdon, France. “Bonjour,” I said. “Vous êtes Franck?” With a reply in the affirmative, I continued, “We’re going to arrive in five minutes or so.” Bert the Bullet was bumping […]
Download the Free Provence Travel Guide This post covers things to do in le Luberon region of Provence. While all three mountain ranges are iconic, I think it’s the Luberon that springs to my mind when I think of Provence. Hilltop towns of Bonnieux and Gordes provide lookout to the valley below, and the intensity […]
On my list of things to do in 2020: Stand in a field of flowers. Not on my list: Survive a pandemic. I can’t even say I’ve survived, yet, because we’re still in the throes of it. So what does that mean for portrait sessions? If you’re thinking about scheduling a portrait session, do so […]
I am a film photographer whose artistic focus is the female portrait. But, I also love my couples and my families! As an artist, these are the things that give me heart eyes, star eyes, and everything eyes. Hopefully this helps you figure out what to wear for your session! You can also peep my […]
At this point, I will not judge you if you think I’m crazy and that I permanently live in a spring state of mind. Currently, I am meandering, skipping, squealing, and photographing (some of us are skinny-dipping) my way through Provence with my artist troupe — a last hurrah before two of us head back […]
[Written in quarantine but published now. I wonder if my questions have been answered?] It was a bight, strong, mid-morning spring sunshine that had me squinting. He was running into the field, zeal punctuating each footfall, after a butterfly. I didn’t bother crawling under the barbed wire to follow; he was already a hundred meters […]
It was supposed to be a Vanity (Af)fair. A perfect picnic under a lone cherry blossom tree at the height of the season; a colour-coordinated garden party to celebrate the beginning of spring. There are so many “it was supposed to be”s, for me and many others. Mostly, this year I was looking forward to […]
Paris & California strolls; plenty of flowers; stories; and looking for the beauty in the everyday. I hope you'll come along as I take the year to document the entirety of my home state!
