Some photos carry more than just a moment—they hold a shift.
Gold like memory, light catching something older than I could name. Thank you to @brujabettypinup.bsky.social for holding such a soft, creative space.
For someone who can pull beauty through the veil and still keep it grounded reach out.

I dip string cheese in mayo as a snack. My brothers think I’m unhinged for it 🤷🏻‍♀️

And mismatched socks? My mom scolded me for it too, but honestly, it’s twice the fun—you get to enjoy two designs at once. How is that a bad thing?

When your brothers know you so well 😊

Hope you all had a wonderful holiday if/however you celebrate 🎄

When his humans are out for the evening, this old man decides I’m an acceptable substitute.

One good thing about coming home for the holidays: stealing love from my family’s cats.
I miss having my own.

Just because I thought it was cute 🤷🏻‍♀️

I’m not a photographer but I do this 😬

Turns out tulips are a bit dramatic—but a simple reminder that sometimes, all we really need is a little water.

Hefty can’t believe the audacity of pausing scritches just for a photo. The betrayal is real. 😾

Seeing so many #southwest photos today. It’s making me homesick for Las Vegas.

Here’s a throwback to the #coralpinksanddunes in #Utah… still one of my favorite side-quests so far.

Still trying to adjust to the freezing air here in #Ohio - 0/10, do not recommend. ❄️

On the bright side, staying indoors means more time to chip away at my reading list. #booksky #slowmornings

It’s hard to grasp what it was all for,
Repeating lessons, learning nothing more,
Part of a history that feels off course.

No matter the outcome, no matter the score,
The wind calls, pushing us from the shore.
Tally your cost, embrace the unsure.

My aunt’s Mouse, just borrowing him. He is as disappointed as I am in my choice to eat only leftover broccoli casserole for dinner tonight.

Often between deadlines & destinations, I pull off the road - just a small stop, unplanned and unimpressive. Gas stations. Roadside oddities. And here, a stretch of grass with a sky that felt bigger than it had any right to. A moment where the pain of loss shrank under the weight of something vast.
