Well this was a fun experience.

Now who would like to fund vision-correcting surgery for me? 😂

Finally editing Hawaii photos - only 3 months after the trip 🫣.

Don’t tell all the photos from my trips prior that are still waiting on my hard drive.

Any guesses where in Hawaii these were taken?

I spent the vast majority of my day editing client galleries - but now I’m almost completely caught up on client work.

Now on to my personal projects.

What should I edit first?
Hawaii?
Mt. Fuji?
My daughter’s 5 year old studio portraits?

Let me know what you’d like to see!

We spent a couple magical days experiencing a Tokyo Disney Christmas.

Now it’s back to work and editing in double time before Christmas arrives.

Any good podcast recommendations to pass the time? 👀

Daughter: Mom, how do you spell yakiniku?

Me: Go do the best you can I’m trying to clean up dinner.

D: Opts to spell in hiragana instead. Guess she’s actually more correct than I would have been anyways.

Awakening valley… with the great Mont Blanc & the needles of Chamonix in background…
This one is captured from Swiss, but all you see here is part of the French Alps.

Spent my afternoon photographing tiny dancers. Usually they’re pretty easy - 5-10 minutes each tops.

Sometimes though, a little bugger sneaks in and no matter how many tricks you think you know nothing works.

I scored a bugger today.

Now I’m tired and could use a nap.

Is there a pretty season than autumn? And is there a stinkier tree than a ginkgo? At least they compensate with the most stunning yellow leaves 🍁

I will forever be amazed by how much Japanese these kids know. Learning languages young is really the best way. I cannot begin to keep up with their learning.

Hiroshima.

One of my favorite things to do is just walk through a city or town. You never know what views you’ll be able to capture.

Advice from a Literature teacher and resister: read your history, but don’t forget your literature.

Resistance is woven through the words of abolitionism and feminism and anti-fascism. Read the history and the literature.

Goodreads is owned by Jeff Bezos. A better alternative is StoryGraph, a Black woman-owned platform. And before y’all start, you can transfer all your Goodreads data to Storygraph so you literally have no excuse.

Ah so that damn dissertation is the reason my kids room is so organized…
I have something to write that’s hard so I read a lot of books and articles to get ready to write and anyway my garage is now organized for winter.
