Confessions of a Mompreneur Back to school has inspired me to mix up my “Confessions.” This time, we’re talking the working mom or “Mompreneur.” This new school year is a game changer! For 4 years now, my beastie taxi service (you know, my other job) has taken up 2 hours of every. single. weekday. Why? […]

An American in Corfu The last time I traveled alone, sans husband or beasties, was 2006. That wasn’t supposed to be a solitary vacation, but it turned into one when my husband convinced me to further my education by taking a summer course at Sotheby’s Institute in London, promising to meet me there in a […]

Farewell Winter, Welcome Spring! The last week in April definitely seems like a good time to review our 2019 winter season, don’t you think? I’ll be the first to admit that as soon as I stopped working over the holiday, I had a difficult time getting back into my daily work routine! I had plans […]

The Power Girls Take Vilnius It’s no secret that I’m not a huge vacation person. I love mixing business with pleasure, so I typically plan my “vacations” around some new business adventure. However, I do have a soft spot for history, heritage and heirlooms, which is honestly why I love photography so much. I’m constantly […]

For those of you who are my age or older, you may remember the clear bottles with the floral background, and the “You make me feel like a natural woman” commercials.  Then, one day, […]

Who are the “Beasties?” So, if you don’t follow me on Facebook, you probably have no idea who I am talking about!  I refer to my children, very lovingly, as “beasties.”  If you ever met my 6 year old Georgiana, as a baby, she definitely fit that profile.  If you have ever, at any time, […]

Thankful I love holidays, and Thanksgiving is no exception.  There is no stress that comes along with this holiday, no difficult expectations…in fact, it’s quite the opposite.  You are expected to eat and be merry, and that is not difficult! As we get closer to the holiday, I am constantly challenging myself to think about and really appreciate […]

Today my husband and I “celebrate” 14 years of marriage! That sounds so long ago! When I say “celebrate,” I mean that we got married 14 years ago.  In reality, I am photographing a newborn session this morning and going to a baby shower this evening, and my husband is at work. Celebrations will have […]
