Life As It Is

Protest

2016-11-12T22:10:00.000-05:00

It's been an emotionally exhausting week, but somehow walking up the middle of Fifth Avenue in NYC with thousands of like-minded people makes me feel a little more hopeful for our future.

Cold Springs

2016-10-30T19:07:00.001-04:00

The Hudson Valley is absolutely breathtaking during the fall. I took an easy Metro North trip to Breakneck Ridge trailhead in Cold Springs for a quick fall day trip. We climbed (more like scrambled) up a challenging trail to experience incredible views. Cold Springs is an adorable town with cute shops, restaurants, and antiques. After spending a few hours hiking and exploring, we drank some celebratory Oktoberfest beers and grabbed some cider donuts for the ride home. (All photos taken with my phone)

Hawaii

Okay Hawaii, I see what the fuss is about. I was lucky enough to bypass the blizzard in NYC and spend a fantastic week with some of my closest friends in Hawaii, celebrating Monica and Eugene's wedding. Take me back!

I just returned from an incredible solo trip throughout Scandinavia. I've already started dreaming up where I want to go next.

Monica & Eugene

2015-03-17T08:57:00.001-04:00

I had the best day photographing Eugene and Monica's engagement photos in Dumbo last weekend.

Sara

2015-03-02T19:36:00.000-05:00

Somehow I got lucky and landed Sara for a roommate two years ago. Since then, we've road-tripped to Montreal together, adventured through Brooklyn, and dealt with the circulation of several other roommates in our three bedroom apartment. I've since moved out, but I'm so grateful to have met her and to have her for a friend. On Wednesday, she's off to a new adventure moving back home to Los Angeles. Our little neighborhood in Brooklyn will never be the same.

Blizzard?

I spent the day with Peter wandering through Chinatown taking street photos, eating unusual treats, and searching for fun trinkets.
