Writing the plot of our story and sharing it. This chapter happens to be about SPD.

April 14, 2013

This is very much a blog about my family as it is about photographing life. And I aim to be honest in all those areas. The thing is, as the kids grow older, I wonder where the line is of their story to tell and my story with them as featured characters. I love sharing [...]

10 on 10 :: The Gypsy edition.

April 10, 2013

We all go through life stages, don’t we? The last decade for me has been about building a family and creating our home. Now that we no longer have babies to base our schedule around, I am starting to feel the pull of a more gypsy existence. I don’t think I could give up our [...]

Midlife crisis and that one time a bee stung my shoe.

April 9, 2013

I got a macro photo of it. The bee, not the midlife crisis. Actually a few photos because I was fascinated by the frozen moment of death that the bee was in. I guess it was undignified as it was both dead and looking a bit silly for stinging my shoe, but that didn’t stop [...]

Exercise, simple fun and diet changes. I have been running a few times a week since August 2012 and this year so far, I have greatly [...]

I don’t want the autumn light to end…

April 4, 2013

And I love that my kids are really interested in being my subjects again. They are not merely allowing me to capture them, but also are excited to be part of the process. Not only taking photos of their own, which of course is dear to my heart (uh-hem littleSIDEKLICK ) but also by developing the stories [...]

The stories objects hold.

April 3, 2013

Technically this is just fabric. In reality though, it is so much more. It is comfort and love. Nunny left behind, still in sight though, because her darling Clover is big enough now to want to play without her sometimes. Not often is she left behind on an adventure, but it is happening more and [...]

Halfway through the Symphony of Crazy as we called this trip.

March 27, 2013

And I realized that even small changes need preparation and planning. I thought I had done well, but with any new experiences, there are bound to be things that get missed beforehand. In fact, the list of things I should have packed kept growing each day. The most important of those was bug spray! A few of [...]

First night under our belts…we are campervan pros now.

March 25, 2013

Ok, I know there are a few people reading who are about to take their own first family trip in a campervan and so I am going to lead with a warning: “Don’t assume that all the bits and pieces you need are present and in working order. Try every single appliance and feature before [...]

I think I might have to start going to mobile home expos…

March 24, 2013

I love campervan life! I am already dreaming of buying our own tour bus. And I love getting to a new place and letting the kids run free in the beautiful light while the grown folks make dinner and pour wine.

Help us nickname the Britz campervan! Day one was spent in a motel, but we have picked up the tiny house on wheels and have hit the road. More soon!
