The Unspoken Bond: A Mother's Love in Nature
I traveled to Rome, Italy, with my family a few years ago. When in Rome, I went to the zoo! Yes, that’s right. Not only did I see all of the famous historical sites that Rome is so rich with, but I also wanted to take my family to the zoo and see the animals.

Life Hidden in the Shadows
Shadows generate stories, and questions. Photographs catch many details, but not complete stories. With a shrug I wondered who was on the boat that day. For me it’s the shadows that tell a story in as much clarity as the remaining image. Shadows always make me personally sad because while they distort reality, they are as fleeting as life itself, and sometimes that’s all we have to hang on to.

Whispered Petals: A Guide to Capturing Roses and Their Stories
One of my passions is photography. I took four years of photography in high school in a dark room. I was enamored with taking my camera and finding a subject that I could photograph, and with my photo, I could tell a story without words.

Slipping Into Life Lessons
My son is a teenager now, driving even. I am still trying to wrap my head around that idea. If I can be completely honest, I am terrified at this new milestone. I am doing my best to handle it well, but pray for me, because, as a parent, this is an area of worry that no one can prepare you for.

Dandelion Dreams
When I was about seven years old my family was on a road trip through Yellowstone National Park. As we drove down winding mountain roads, and through desolate prairies, I happened to see a little dandelion (taraxacum) on the side of the road. Something about that dandelion struck me and I told myself to never forget that image of that dandelion. Bright and beautiful in the sun, stretching over the curbside and into the road.

Life in the Slow Lane
By the time I took the photograph above, I had almost completed one of the most ridiculous journeys of my life. It was a challenge, like the best tests we can pit against ourselves, that taught me a very important, but contradictory, lesson: You can be vulnerable and strong. By the time this photo was taken, I had spent almost three weeks on a journey that was essentially pointless and inspirational.

Where is My Mind?
I was first introduced to the Pixies in the late 80's/early 90's by my sister and I was instantly hooked by their sound. I mean, let's face it. These guys were part of what I feel was a golden era of Alternative music; they were, after all, playing right alongside the likes of Nirvana, Pearl Jam, Soundgarden, Jane's Addiction, Sonic Youth, and more. Ok, yeah; me saying that is probably a bit of a generational thing, but there'll be plenty of time for discussion about which era is better in another story. Regardless, the Pixies were definitely on high rotation on my stereo; many hours were, (and still are) spent playing them full blast with me laying on the floor; arms crossed over my eyes in a meditative state.

Some photographs capture a fleeting moment; others preserve a memory that lasts a lifetime. Then there are photographs that hold the power to transform your perspective, shape your decisions, and reignite your hope. For me, that life-changing photograph was taken on a brisk spring morning five years ago—a single image that forever altered my understanding of resilience and the boundless capacity for hope.

We Mend, One Piece at a Time
My photo begins in Bangkok, Thailand where I visited the Yoko Ono’s Mend Piece art exhibit. The beauty of this exhibit is you are the one making the art and you are the one mending the pieces of broken ceramics. You can use glue, tape, rope or whatever is on the table to help. None of the pieces there fit, but you have creative freedom to mend them together however you see fit. The goal of Yoko Ono’s exhibit is to allow a space for healing to happen. By allowing you to experience the mending process with something so simple as mending a plate or a cup.
