I’m going to a Guster concert next week. And I’m hoping to be one of the lucky ones randomly chosen to attend their new album’s listening party before the concert. And just in case I am chosen, I’ve whipped up a magnetic topper for my glasses, some earrings, rings, bracelets, and necklaces, all inspired by the new album’s cover art. Because why simply be a “fan” when you can be “that weird who made jewelry to match the album art”?

Pair Eyewear Toppers DIY
I have a different kind of tutorial for you today. It is a departure from my usual kind of craft, but I’ve spent several months trying to make it work, and I am at a point where I’m very happy with the results. So, naturally, I want to share. Ready? Let’s put our own artwork on our glasses!

When I shot my first roll of Lomochrome Purple in the spring, I thought that it was pretty interesting. But I also thought that there just wasn’t enough green around to make it amazing. I decided then that I’d need to try again in the summer for sure, but also in the fall. In the […]

In the beginning of August, Neil and I took an after-work trip to Cooper Gristmill, a lovely historic mill surrounded by lush trees and babbling water. It’s been nearly three months since that trip at this point, but luckily images keep. Everything outside my window right now is orange, so the green of these images feels like such a throwback!

This weekend is Rhinebeck weekend, and I am not there. For the fourth year in a row. That’s ok, though, because I still have a sweater to share, and I wore it for a week in Ocean City, NJ, which is a very different kind of getaway than a weekend in Upstate NY would be, but it was nice in its own way, and perfect for new-sweater wearing.

New colors, new patterns, and a bunch of colorful new trinkets to wear! That’s what’s been keeping me busy for the last week or so. I’m happy to finally be finished with all of the work so I can share them with you. Come take a look!

Wherein I spend several paragraphs talking about how I might be getting bored of writing photography-based posts, and then write a photography-based post. I explore the question, “why are my ocean photos often not as great as being there?” and I give you a peek at my new camera (and the first few images from it).

I took Lomochrome Turquoise film to the beach, the swamp, the farm, the river, and the coffee shop. In some cases it looked like a whole other planet (for better or for worse), and in others it resulted in just a pleasant teal tinge. Take a look!

There were some really lovely spots where I only went for an hour or two last month, alongside the bigger trips I’ve already shared with you. Rather than give each of these their own blog post, I thought I’d put all of my favorite photos here in one place, and just show you the highlights. Take a look!
