But now it’s over.It is one thing to take photos every day… But it is another thing to create a blog post every day. And after one month of daily blog posting… I have learned that it just isn’t sustainable (for example it is 3:38 am and I am still working on this post.) This…

When I asked HAH if he wanted to go on an adventure today, he said, “A MAN-venture.” Lucky kid gets to spend a lot of time with his dad and his dad’s creative vocabulary. But today was a family-venture day, which I documented with my Rolleiflex, a medium format film camera, so no photos to…

Green grass in our front yard. Or toddlers playing in the sink. Because California is experiencing a very serious drought right now. (This is what the hill behind our house looked like last year.) (This is what the same hill looks like this year.) So it is time for all of us to start finding…

This film photo was not taken today, but with the weather we’re having, it could have been.Instead, I took the day off from photographing today and I’m posting this photo for my Monday To-Do list. And as a reminder that when your two-year old is standing in the bay with a giant leopard shark three…

If you have ever visited any of the places I have lived over the past decade then you have met the extra long crushed velvet couch, and you probably have a story associated with it. This couch was the first piece of furniture I acquired as “an adult.” It lived in the office where I…

At night I toss and turn for hours and hours thinking of all the things I HAVE to do.But when morning comes, I can’t think of a single reason why I should get out of bed.
