A SPECIAL SURPRISE FOR MY SON

HAPPY SUNDAY YA'LL! 


Special surprises are kind of my thing. At least when it comes to hunting for antique furniture. For the longest time now our son has wanted a real toy box, or treasure chest as one may call it, for his toys. Being the thrifty shopper and anti new furniture type person I am, I went searching for pieces I could refinish and repurpose for this special surprise for my son! Gone are the days of stepping on Beyblades and Legos. πŸ€™

Photos In The Nude

I recently photographed this fine gentleman. We didn't have a visual concept so to speak of, I was just anxious to play with my new 70-200mm lens and he was up for a hang. Before I knew it we laughed, talked about his profession, his travels, his aspirations all while just hanging out and snapping photos. Conversation was easy and again I found myself more in love with photography as it feels to be not only a means of creative expression but also a vehicle to meeting and connecting with new f...

Up The Mountain πŸ”

A family outing we wanted to share with our Patreon family...

I get excited when Blue suggests we get out of the house and go on a little adventure. It's easy to get caught up in the routine of daily life but you gotta break it up sometimes. Getting out into the world and exploring someplace new is a family fave. I had seen something about this forest on IG and had been wanting to check it out for a while now. We loaded in the car and headed up the mountain. As we ascended I contin...

NUDE CONTENT WARNING: My Latest Photoshoot

Hey Ya'll, Blue Here. 

Sharing some of my favorite snaps from a recent photoshoot I did. They are a little spicy so view at your own discretion. If you're offended by butt cheeks and ball sacks (we can't be friends) I recommend skipping this post. 

I've taken photos for years, obviously creating social media content finds one with a camera in hand... But in the last year or so I've really grown anxious to find more photos to edit because I love working in Adobe ...

I always thought it would be better to be a fake somebody than a real nobody.

Just got out of the shower. Feeling ready to talk about a dark, dangerous, sexy movie.

Day 2: Exclusive Behind-the-scenes Of Building Our Family Room Mantel

ok... so this project is coming along a lot quicker than expected. This NEVER happens! It is usually the opposite and several things get in the way of us completing a project! Our mantel is ready for installation but we are still waiting on our brackets to arrive. Once they do, this baby is gonna go up in a hot second! I can already feel the coziness in the room with our family photos having a new home!

The Talented Mr Ripley it is! I am very much looking forward to this one. There is going to be so much to unpack. If you have time, and haven’t seen it yet, try and watch Saltburn as well. We will likely be talking a lot about this movie as well.

ALSO, I had to move the date so this will now be happening on Wed, Jan 17th @ 4pm pst.

Can’t wait to see you all there!!
