  • Lock bridge in London (2019)— where people immortalize their love with a padlock and zero thoughts about the future. I, unfortunately, have one of these to retrieve.Which means at some point I’ll be back here, squinting at every lock like I’m on a very embarrassing scavenger hunt.

  • Saint-Laurent-sur-Mer, France (2019)— this was the statue waiting for us the moment we stepped into our Airbnb, and tell me he doesn’t look like he’s about to demand a treat and then judge how slowly you hand it over. He instantly reminded me of my doggo, Jasper (RIP). Same chaotic enthusiasm. Same “I run this…

  • Somewhere in France (2019)— found this little snail minding its business on a random surface like it was posing for a magazine cover. There’s something I love about tiny surprises like this when you travel. You’re looking for castles and coastline and instead you end up having a full photoshoot with a snail who absolutely…

  • Glen Arbor, Michigan (2016)— one of those little tucked-away spots that feels like it’s been quietly holding stories for decades. This place wasn’t fancy, wasn’t polished, wasn’t trying to be anything. Just weathered wood, creeping vines, and that soft hush of Up North calm. It’s the kind of scene that makes you slow down without…

  • Parc Monceau in Paris (2019)— easily one of the most enchanting corners of the whole city. The curved colonnade, the still water, the way the light filters through the trees…it all feels like you’ve wandered into a painting. A quiet little pocket of magic in the middle of Paris.

  • Sea Life Aquarium in Kansas City, Missouri 2022—where the tanks were glowing, the jellyfish were vibing, and I…was basically this duck. Bright on the outside, blue on the inside, plopped on a metaphorical plank because Dave decided to blow me off that day. Nothing like ocean ambience and a rubber duck to really highlight the…

  • Clifford’s Tower, York, England — one of those places that looks like it’s been waiting centuries for you to show up and take in the view. There’s something so striking about it perched on that perfect green hill, like a fortress, a landmark, and a piece of lived history all at once. York really knows…

  • Puerto Rico (2020)— the unexpected stop on our cruise that came with a view nobody plans for but everyone remembers. We pulled in and saw this waterfront scene: boats tossed around like toys, buildings worn from storms and time, a kind of beautiful chaos that tells its own story. It wasn’t the postcard moment, but…

  • Normandy American Cemetery and Memorial in Colleville-sur-Mer, France (2019)— a place that doesn’t need many words because the air already carries its own. This statue caught me immediately. Not just the shape or the scale, but the way it rises into the light like a breath held between grief and honor. Standing here felt heavy…

  • Rocky Butte, Portland (2016)— one of those places where the city feels like a constellation pretending to be earthly. I love this shot because it captures exactly what Portland does best: soft twilight, endless trees, and a skyline that looks like it’s humming under its breath. Even the graffiti felt poetic, like someone else stood…
