Photographing Finger Monsters Helps Me Heal My Childhood Trauma

August 20, 2021
Photographing Finger Monsters Helps Me Heal My Childhood Trauma I visited the eye doctor more frequently than most children because I was born with strabismus. My eyes did not look in the same direction. At two years old, I had surgery on my left eye. For many years after, I patched my right eye to help train the left. My ophthalmologist gave me f...

Marketing for Abundant Earth Herbals

November 15, 2020
Pivoting from a physical service space to a virtual product shop is hard. This fall, I supported a small business owner on her transformation from an in-person massage business to an online product platform. COVID-19 threw our local small business economy up in the air, forcing many owners to journey into the unknown. Abundant Earth Herbals took...

Thank you, Canon L Series 100mm lens, pockets of Seattle sun, and families willing to follow CDC protocols....

A Week in Iceland

March 01, 2020
This time last year I was editing photographs from my Iceland trip. Things have slowed down so much due to the pandemic I am finally able to post those photos. Sometimes blessings come in very scary packages. I have a complicated relationship with traveling. On one hand, air travel is terrible for the environment. On the other hand, I try my best...

Seattle Needle Knits Love

November 29, 2018
Long live love in Seattle! Tricia said yes at the top of the Needle to Zachariah. It was just as you'd expect it to be, thrilling, romantic, and full of laughter and love. These two gave me the giggles all evening. They could not stop smiling at each other. Zachariah maintained his cool while asking Tricia to marry him, but after she let out a shr...

Pioneer Square Seattle

January 09, 2018
I've only begun to 'pic' at the surface of Pioneer Square while shooting for hire and personally. This historic neighborhood has shown me the right amount of grit and familiarity to keep me entranced. It's wonky and charming, it's old-world Europe meets new world PNW, and it's worthy of a deeper dive. The active small business shops snuggle comfort...

The Real Down Dog

June 26, 2017
I can not say enough wonderful things about SunstoneFit and its abilities to teach yoga with a foundational perspective. A pose like down dog is not a resting station or just an easy place to start a sequence. It's quite complex and rather hard work, especially if you're activating your body. Their instructors will help you to push, pull, and feel...
