I’ve seen some photographers post images with a ghostly look and I’ve always wanted to try it. I knew it had to do with long shutter speed and not being in front of the camera the entire time. So I experimented with it! I started in my office and set my camera on a shelf...

Talk About a Bad Day…
If you’re having a bad day, week, year, it’s probably not as bad as this guy’s… This poor guy has a pole stuck through his waist and can’t move. He is stuck in a cafe in Beijing and never gets to look outside… or if he is looking outside, he is upside down. When he...
China with the iPhone Cam!
China was the first trip I have taken with my new iPhone, which I love! I was so excited to play with the app, ShakeItPhoto. My favorite part is when you decide to process it, it actually sounds like polaroid picture coming out of the camera. It was super fun to play with and I...
The Great Wall!
I decided to skip Wednesday for now and share my Thursday! It was an insanely amazing and crazy day! Nothing could have prepared me for the Great Wall. Okay, well maybe if I googled it and spent some time researching the different walls but still, it was nothing I could have imagined. It was so...

So the most amazing thing happened last night but let me give you a little backstory first. I have a dog and her name is Sally. She is the coolest dog in the world. One thing I have noticed about her is that she knows when I’m sad or stressed. She becomes kind of clingy...
Another Side of Me…
I’m guessing since you are visiting my photography blog you probably see me as a photographer. This is true but there is another side to me… I teach figure skating! It’s funny because people at the rink see me as the skating coach that takes pictures. I’m very lucky to be able to do both....
This is My Moment
A little recap of the past week or so… I went on The Raddest Photo Trip Ever with Bobby Earle in December. All who went on the trip gave him our favorite photo and the contest began. We had one week to get as many votes as we could. So, I facebooked, tweeted and blogged...
