This past weekend I had the immense joy, pleasure, and blessing of spending time with some of my beloved brothers as we journeyed to a sister’s wedding. Jon and I flew from opposite coasts to Dallas where we met Colby for a 5 hour drive South to La’s wedding in Kerrville, TX. The following [...]
There are probably 10 things I like about public transportation (more on that later; also, I know it’d be a nicer read to say a hundred things, but let’s be realistic). Perhaps my favorite thing is seeing little kids get on with their parents. They’re usually pretty excited about getting on the bus, and they’re [...]
After a long week of not very hard work, I decided to treat myself to a day of extremely touristy activities here in Philadelphia. So Saturday morning I threw some essentials in my messenger bag, strung my camera (thank you parents!!!) around my neck and walked approximately 1.6 miles down to Independence Historical National Park, [...]
For this installment of “Mom, look what I made!” I’m going to show you some of the things that can happen when photography and design collide. Some of the pieces below (this is turning into an art gallery) are nothing more than pictures framed in a eye-catching way. Others are manipulations of photographs. I’m confident [...]

Even as my plane descended into Philadelphia and I saw their version of a downtown skyline, my mind had still not wrapped around the fact that I was moving to this city. Now, approximately 48 hours later… it still hasn’t.
I’ve decided to make my debut Philly post one of first impressions (which I’m notoriously bad [...]
I’ll not patronize you in retelling the story of how I’m moving to Philly on Monday, as you have no doubt had it on your calender since I first posted about it. However, what I will do is take this opportunity, a couple days before I leave, to explain to you what it is I’ll [...]
If you didn’t catch it from the previous post, I’ve spent the past few days skiing in the Colorado Rocky Mountains (High). I took a few pictures, which you can see over on my flickr page. I flew back to a balmy Dallas this afternoon, and during my flight I realized that it was [...]
