Visiting New Orleans and exploring it’s rich, exciting history and local attractions is on my “To-Do” travel list, and has been for quite some time- and will hopefully happen within the next year or so- but planning a time to go is a little tricky. Hurricane season takes up a significant amount of the year, […]
What do you do when your good friend and photographer is quarantining and recovering from COVID? Set up the ol’ tripod and hope for the best with the tools you have available! Before I start talking about Valentine’s Day and holiday-inspired loungewear- I just want to send healing vibes and good thoughts to my buddy, […]
Another January nearly complete and another year older for yours truly! This past weekend marked my [redacted]-th birthday, and my second one celebrated in the midst of an ongoing global pandemic.

These past (almost) couple of weeks have […]

First, with a series of heavy rainstorms with wild wind gusts, and now with some upcoming snowfall. And although looking at […]
It is absolutely wild to me that we have reached the end of November and there are only a few weeks left until 2021 comes to a close, as well. We all say it every time the holidays sneak up on us again- but time truly does fly by- especially as you’re getting older! I’ve […]
