England - Field of Light

An installation of 6,000 acrylic tubes containing optical fibres will be set up at the Eden Project in Cornwall, England this winter by lighting designer Bruce Munro .

It's called, aptly, Field of Light.

If you are around Cornwall, England, check it out. It should be spectacular! (If the cops don't wipe it out too soon...)

John & Jennifer

It all started when John (a paramedic) brought a patient into Jennifer's (a nurse) ER and something sparked. A few years later, on a beautiful September Saturday afternoon, the paramedic and nurse were married. It was a happy occasion, sprinkled with tears of happiness. It is always special to be a part of such a momentous day in the lives of two people -- thanks, John and Jennifer, for inviting me to be a part of yours! Check back soon for more images from their wedding!

HELP! iPod Engraving Ideas

Dear all,

My old iPod just died, and while mourning for my lost music (I still haven't learned the lesson - BACKUP!), anyway, I bought a new 32 Gb iPod Touch and I'm wracking my brain about what to engrave. Any suggestions?

I'm thinking about the following:

1. "You are the music while the music lasts." -- T. S. Eliot

2. “With our love, we could save the world.” -- George Harrison

3. "Life is a shipwreck, but we must not forget to sing in the lifeboats." - Voltaire


Frankly, I've considered some Latin, but it just seems too much like Ivy League mottos.
I also thought about Kierkegaard's “Livet skal forstås baglaens, men leves forlaens", but then risking being taken as a total nerd...
So I'm asking for YOUR HELP.

Any idea (no vulgar please) would be greatly appreciated.

(Thanks for the excellent tip, Bradley. x!)

everything is ok.

I've been meaning to post about these guys for awhile. I love their "everything is ok" barricade tape. And now their "Everything is ok" kit is up for Cooper Hewitt’s People’s Design Award, so it seems like a good time to give 'em a little love.

Cardboard box bedding.

Sleep under a cardboard box so a homeless young person doesn’t have to.



A large proportion of the proceeds from the Le Clochard quilt cover go to SZN, the foundation for homeless young people in the Netherlands. The income is used to fund housing projects which prioritise supporting young people in finding work or continuing their education.

Sheep mower.

Mower is a cartoony Styrofoam robot sheep that can roam large public lawns with shears in its mouth and rangefinders in its eyes, clipping the grass and avoiding obstacles. But this is no John Deere Graze-o-matic: it's art. Its creator, Osman Khan, references a classic Philip K. Dick sci-fi story (the basis for the movie Blade Runner) to make an object that juxtaposes animal and machine. Do androids dream of electric sheep? Maybe, if they're as fun to watch as "Moe."

Giant scarves.

I don't care that they're last year's collection. I'm kind of in love with these gimungous scarves.

Jumbo clips.

This could make a great print hanger.


So big! So strong! Use it to hold your manuscript, half a ream or paper, or use it on the wall as a hanger.

Emily's Senior Session

I'm so happy to share these pics from Emily's senior session! I had a lot of fun trekking around downtown Lexington with Emily and her mom (who was an excellent assistant) on this sunny late afternoon and introducing these Louisville ladies to a little part of this city! Emily's younger sisters were flower girls in one of the summer weddings I documented so it was an honor when their mom contacted me to take these photos for Emily. I'm so blessed in this occupation to get to meet such nice people like these!
