24 Hours In Louisville, Kentucky
I wanted to share a few recommendations from our short weekend in Louisville, Kentucky. It’s only an hour and a half west on I-64, and yet I rarely get over there. It’s such a fun city. We kicked off the weekend on Friday evening with a photo shoot. Todd Pellowe took some photographs of me...
Good Things for Sunday in July
I owe you some good chi, so here are a few good things for a Sunday night in July…. -Jamie Oliver’s Magazine. We made a raspberry/mint/lemon/sugar/gin drink from this month’s issue and while I completely botched the straining portion of the directions, it was still very good. The chickpea, feta, and tomato salad recipe this...
Prints and Canvas Preview
It is so difficult to visualize photos on the wall. I love this new tool from Ariana Falerni that helps us to sees how the 8 x 10 won’t quite cut it over the mantle. I think I may need this tool more than my clients. 30 inches x 40 inches 1 20 x 30...

Probably due to lack of sleep, the migraines have been coming more frequently and they’ve been rather fierce. So, I’m taking the holiday weekend off {no editing, no shoots, no deposition prep, no computer time} and...
Aces
*Molly Ringwald’s book Getting The Pretty Back is lovely and feels like a conversation with a really genuine, interesting friend. *I’ve worn out the link to this wedding from Leigh Miller. Her work is so inspiring. *I love this post from Hula Seventy: Things I’d Like to Tell My 17-Year Old Self. It’s brilliant and...
Your Photo Session
About once a week, I get a message that says something like, “If I ever get married, I want you to be my photographer,” or “when I have kids, we’ll have to schedule something,” or “when I get skinny, we need to schedule a session.” It’s very flattering when anyone says they would like for...
Beautiful Boy: Lexington, Kentucky Children Photographer
I spent the morning with Henry and his lovely parents. He is so beautiful. I posted more from this session on the Paper Boat Photography Facebook Page {please become a fan} and had the hardest time choosing those. He is perfect.
