My mother is an amazing seamstress. Her mother was an amazing seamstress. I feel as if it runs in my blood. So, a few months ago, my friend Jess & I took a sewing class and I fell in love. We learned how to make pillow cases and I’ve probably made, oh, 395 pillows since [...]

Palm Springs 2010
July 22nd, 2010 · 6 Comments
One of the hardest things about working for yourself from home is the lack of human interaction. There’s no one to talk to. To swap stories with. To lean on. I didn’t realize how hard it would be. Chris would come home from work, after spending two hours in traffic, and I would be bouncing [...]

Happy Birthday BooBooBear
June 29th, 2010 · 3 Comments
We’re not really sure when his birthday is. The East Valley Animal Shelter thought he was about 1.5 years, but, who knows for sure. Sometimes, while I’m rubbing his ears, I think about where he came from. Who his family was. What life was like before escaped, got hit by a car and ended up [...]

Shooting For Myself
June 14th, 2010 · 2 Comments
I used to shoot for myself all the time. Pictures of, well, everything I was doing, everywhere I went, everyone I saw. I am BEYOND blessed to be able to shoot for a living now. But I think that when you shoot for others, the shooting for yourself takes a bit of a backseat. I [...]

A Basil Update
February 25th, 2010 · 5 Comments
I realized today that I hadn’t blogged. For way too long. I’ve been busy busy busy, but nothing to interesting for the blog yet! Really, it’s just been editing & album designing & shooting ladies that are entirely too sexy for the blog!
So, we’ve been relaxing and hanging out with Mr. Basil. Getting to know [...]

Sonoma via Instax
January 21st, 2010 · 5 Comments
A few weeks ago my friends Chris & Allie of The Reason were in town and they introduced me to my newest obsession… The Instax. I absolutely loved the camera and the images it created. I NEEDED to have it for our trip to Sonoma. So much so that when it didn’t arrive in time, [...]

The Project House
December 11th, 2009 · 1 Comment
Last September Chris & I became the proud owners of a project house. The place was in shambles… it was a dirty, gross, disgusting disaster area that only a parent could love. And we did. We loved every single thing about it. It’s old, built in 1929 and has so much character. Not all of [...]

It’s Fall
October 1st, 2009 · 3 Comments
When did that happen!? We’ve been going back and forth a few times thus far and I keep thinking that it’s fall. Like after we installed central Air Conditioning in the house and then it suddenly got very cool. At the time I was so upset that we wouldn’t get to put it to good [...]

I’m Out
July 14th, 2009 · No Comments
I’m going to be out of the office from Tuesday thru Saturday. My bestie is becoming a DOCTAH! I’m so wicked excited for her that I’m flying to Nashville to watch her defend her thesis. I’ve been told that I will only understand about, well, likely none of it. Something about malaria and microscopes and [...]

Kitties
June 5th, 2009 · 5 Comments
I am OBSESSED with my cats. Seriously, I don’t think I could love my boys anymore. If I could take them out with me, without looking like a crazy cat lady, I totally would. I once bought leashes for them (bordering on crazy cat lady, I know) but they didn’t really appreciate the feel of [...]
