I’m a city girl, even though I live in a tiny town, and Taos is about as tiny as it gets with 7,000 people in the town proper. I have an affinity for small towns – I love to visit and photograph them when I travel – but I tend to get my inspiration...

Last night I was awake at 3 a.m. thinking about the meaning of life. Yep, the party never stops at my place. 🙂 I’m guessing you’ve laid awake at night pondering the same thing. Why am I here? What’s my life about? I believe two things are true: 1.We’re here on the...

I grew up in San Diego, and my adolescence was bikinis and Boogie Boards and cruising the cliffs in Ocean Beach. I’ve come a long way from that sun tanned cheerleader (don’t judge!), and when I go back now it’s with a bit of melancholy for my lost...

Here’s the problem with processing photos you took eight months ago: you forget the details. When I’m traveling I use the end of the day to import photos from the camera to Lightroom, and then sort them into folders based on place-name. If I have time,...

Today I’m posting another of approximately five jillion possible Ireland photos, this one of the beautiful town of Limerick. But I also wanted to say you’ll start seeing major changes on the site, because I’m shifting my focus from professional...

It depends on who you ask. But first, remember when I went to Ireland and Scotland, and said I’d post photos soon? Well, apparently in my world, soon means half a year or so. Sorry about that. So, back to the beauty and wonder that is Ireland. Derry/Londonderry...

When I was thinking about leaving Oakland in 2004, the only places I could see myself living were Taos and New York City. When I told this to people they always responded with some version of, How interesting, because those two places are nothing alike! Also, have you...

I realize I’m supposed to be posting about the latest Scamps, but the other night it rained in Taos, and I decided to buck the boss – who is, um, me – and share some images from that. And I wasn’t technically in the rain, since rain and...

Evocative names for an evocative landscape, don’t you think? This is the last post (at least for now) about this gorgeous Southern Utah landscape. Sigh. So much to love about it. I’m guessing you’ve heard of Moab – it’s famous for hiking,...
