Tonight’s Outside. Maybe, just maybe, Jesus is telling us all thank you for sending up Dolly today. She will live on in so very many hearts. ❤️

Up From Under. The chandelier at Clyde’s takes on a different beauty from directly underneath. Sometimes it’s just fun to see the world differently, and that’s what I do for my clients.

Four on the Floor. We spent an absolutely fabulous week at the beach with our kids and grandkids. It was definitely lively 😂 but they’re just the sweetest kids ever. We are each allotted a definitive time on this earth—we choose to spend ours building relationships with family because family really is everything. The real entertainment behind the scenes here was my kids acting up behind me to get them to smile. (Maybe they were bribed with cookies…😂)

Life in Hand. 250 Independence Days deep, may we all teach our children and grandchildren that there’s more connection than division. We have so much more in common than the media would have us believe—as demonstrated by the World Cup gatherings—we introduced them to ranch dressing along with the land of opportunity. Let us all see the good in every day and the opportunities a positive outlook invites, and teach the littles to do that too. Peace, Love and Ranch. 💙❤️🇺🇸

All Puffed Up. My artwork featuring Atlantic Puffins “On The Cliff” was juried into the ArtScape 17 outdoor gallery of banners in February. Shot in Iceland, it’s part of the newest batch of banners now up in downtown Wi******er and Middletown. I am so proud of this program. Having been one of three ladies that “hatched” this project 17 years ago, it is now a key fundraiser for ShenArts. It was always meant to be bigger than just the three of us however, so like these puffins, it’s an honor to see this project take flight.

If your family has been touched by Alzheimer’s or Dementia, you’re not alone. It’s yet another “me too” moment that no one asks to join. June is Alzheimer’s Awareness Month. Being a caregiver is challenging to say the least, but trust me that over here, you are seen. ❤️

After watching Alzheimer's affect both my family, I learned why photographs and printed photo books are more than keepsakes. they're a way to preserve memories, connection, and legacy for future generations.

Aglow. The Jefferson Street water tower is undergoing some maintenance (assuming repainting because extreme tent camping is a liability…😂) The glow against the evening sky is pretty stunning. Sometimes amazing imagery is just outside our windows—we just need to pay attention. No worries—I’ll do it for you—that’s my job.

Colorfast. I photographed the installation of these 800 flags in the pouring rain. Yes my cameras and lenses cost 1000’s of dollars. No expensive electronics shouldn’t get wet. But those dedicated Rotary volunteers worked in the rain. Our military serves in ugly weather too. While it’s unfortunate there haven’t been as many visitors with the rain, the Healing Field of Honor remains a place of peace and remembrance, and I can create something beautiful even in less than ideal conditions. One of my adjunct photo professors ingrained in us that as professional photographers we make images not excuses. That lesson stays with me decades later. So yes I worked. In the rain. If they can do it, so can I.
