Thoughts – September 7, 2022

Things that run through my mind as I gaze at my two week old daughter: //35mm photo of ceramics and peppercorns from Heath Ceramics in Sausalito, CA. Many years ago – maybe 2017?

Airports

The last time I was in an airport, it was November of last year, when we flew back East for Thanksgiving. Going from traveling nearly every month, much of it international, to zero travel is a lot like running at full speed and then trying to stop, skidding, screeching, screaming. I think those last three […]

Sunsets

I realized a couple days ago that I haven’t seen a sunset in a while. What was even more startling was realizing that I probably won’t be seeing any sunsets for a while. I gave birth to my son earlier this year, right as governments realized that the pandemic wasn’t, as the President claimed, going […]

Hello, again.

Hello, it’s been a hot minute. I don’t know that I will start writing again with any sort of regularity, but given the rigors this year has put us through to date, it might be a place to start regaining my sanity. It’s been three years since my last entry here. I kept this website […]

Meet me in Miami

Those are my toes. You can barely see them in the black and white photo, but they’re there, lacquered toes camouflaged against the pale stones in the clear blue of the Atlantic Ocean. The water was warm, and, even at 8 a.m. in the morning, the sun was beating down on my head, reminding me […]

A day of art and museums (NYC)

In the waning twilight days of the year, I will try to push a few entries out to capture some of the wanderings that have occupied most of my life this year. While my blog (as infrequently as it is updated), is primarily photography-based, my hope is that some of what is taken away is […]

I am terrible at blogging | Japan in Black and White (October 2016)

I will be first to admit that I am terrible at updating my blog. I used to have plenty of time to write and rant about my life, and, indeed, I had several blogs that I kept up starting in high school. Recently, I’ve taken to ranting more than writing, and, I’ll admit, it makes […]

New York, New York (in BW)

There are some books that are written out of order– they start somewhere in the middle and piece together the various strands of the story into a woven tapestry of scenes, pictures, and images. Not every moment is recorded, and not every scene is explained, but it all becomes one cohesive whole at the end […]

Embarking on a Black and White Journey

For those of you who follow me on Instagram in addition to this blog, you already know that, starting January 1 of this year, I started on a new project. Yes, my friends– I am now shooting in all black and white. And I am not talking about just converting select color photos to black and white, but […]

O Brother, Where Art Thou?

These are my brothers. We hang out. We have a good time. We look alike. Our favorite pastime is sending awkwardly close-up selfies to each other in group texts. The one on the left is older. The one on the right is younger. I’m the oldest. The youngest just turned 21. So they came to […]
