Because I love travel and photography, friends often ask for travel-photography advice. I’m always happy to help, even if I feel like a fraud: I’ve never taken a formal photography class, nor have I mastered even the basics. Still, here are some ideas I’ve picked up along the way — with a special shout out […]

The Wampire Diaries
I adore my friend Laurice for a million different reasons. She’s smart, cool, funny, kind, a wonderful mom, and an unbelievable cook. She’s also incredibly creative and generous — and I’m always grateful when I’m on the receiving end of her creativity and generosity. Such was the case a few months ago, when she surprised […]

Paris: No Photoshop required
I arrived in Paris with a long list of “must sees”—things friends had recommended, places I’d seen in photographs, and a few of my old favorites. I’ve kept a pretty brisk pace over the past few days, methodically visiting each one. But not today. Today, I was content to just walk. All told, I think […]
