For years my mom made these incredible oatmeal chocolate chip cookies for our family. Sometimes she would add pecans and raisins, other days walnuts, dried cherries and apricots, and other days just whatever she could find in the pantry that seemed a good fit. They quickly became my dad’s favorite, and recently resurfaced as our […]

Wishing you all a fabulous, fun and safe weekend celebrating with friends and family! Happy 4th of July!

Something I value so much as a creative is a desire to share knowledge, teach others and uplift those around us. So often in the creative industry, it can feel as though we are isolated and expected to “learn the hard way,” succeed, and… inevitably fail… all on our own. However, it doesn’t have to be that way. I […]

In early April, when everything is blooming and lovely in Augusta, GA, I spent some time exploring Hammond’s Ferry & the Greenway/river near our home. It’s such a lovely spot and one of my favorites to shoot at in the Augusta area! This week in particular, there were so many amazing colors that I couldn’t help […]

A couple weeks ago, my husband and I traveled to Texas for one of my best friend’s wedding and a little detour to one of our (now) favorite cities: Austin, Texas. My past experience with the Lone Star state is just a couple quick trips for events I was working. I’ve never explored much or really […]

Finding out that dear friends of yours are expecting is such fun, especially when the family is as cute as this one! Caroline & I met in college, but didn’t really get to know each other until we both spent this past year as resident’s wives here in Augusta, GA. Caroline is a creative foodie […]

Spring has officially sprung here in the south! In fact, in my town of Augusta, GA, the flowers are blooming, azaleas are full of color and the Masters Tournament is on its way! We moved here last June, so this will be our first Masters and we’re excited to experience the excitement in town! Inspired by the […]

When I visited New York City recently for The Chapel Designer’s 5th Annual New York City workshop, I had the chance to spend a bit of time with a dear friend. Myra Cargo is one of the most intentional and talented artists I’ve ever met. We knew each other back in our high school days, as […]

Longer days, warm sunshine and pretty blooms are so welcome! A thank you to daylight savings time for a glimpse at spring and summer right around the corner.

This weekend my husband and I packed up and went on a little adventure to Savannah, GA. Since moving to Augusta, GA, our home is only 2.5 hours from the lovely little city, so his birthday weekend seemed like the perfect time to visit friends, explore, and dine – all with camera in tow, of […]
