So this happened. One of our first stops on the Sundance Film Festival train was the Filmmaker Lodge for a Cinema Cafe event: Norman Lear + Lena Dunham in a conversation moderated by Logan Hill of The New York Times. I figured this chat was going to pull a huge draw, […]

Sundance Film Festival is finally here! The Day One Press Conference marks the beginning of the festival… so long as you don’t count the arrival of a lot of moving vans and construction crews that take over Main Street for days as they erect activations, installations, lounges, and temporary storefronts. The […]
We picked up our press passes yesterday and drove around Main Street a little bit for some of the #calmbeforethestorm :). As always, all my anxiety about the Festival evaporates as soon as I see all the action unfolding: activations being constructed, signage going up, people popping selfies in front […]
Last year, V & I were offered the opportunity of a lifetime: Canon asked if we’d shoot for them during the Sundance Film Festival. I remember with such clarity getting ‘the email.’ For me, it was one of those stop-your-heart moments akin to your husband proposing (yeah, it was *that* huge to […]
I’ve waited months to write this post. I kept trying to find the right words to communicate what this day felt like — thinking that, if I composed this properly, it’d be as though you all were there too and you’d understand why it was one of the most meaningful shoots we’ve ever […]
A quick post because I LOVE this and have to share! So, these are totally screengrabs from a client’s Facebook page. She & her husband, whose wedding we photographed in September at the St Regis Deer Valley in Park City, had a second celebration in Taichung, Taiwan — and OUR photos from […]
So in my last Flower Friday post I swore I was going to re-start my Flower Friday posts. Two Fridays + a day have passed since that resolution, and now I’m writing a Flower Friday post on a Saturday. WELL, better than not writing at all, no? I’m going to (attempt to) […]
I freaking love Las Vegas. Yep, I’m sayin’ it out loud: I love it. I could go on & on about it, too. The cost of living, an international airport, the new-ness of the properties, twinkle lights everywhere at night, the atmosphere, the fine dining, the outdoor dining year round, […]
A family reunion/vacation + a 40th wedding anniversary? Yes! When the family turns out to be absolutely amazing? YES PLEASE… and may I have another?!?!? For this celebratory vacay, everyone came in from out of state (Pittsburgh and Chicago, which was my home before Park City), and I always enjoy meeting people […]
This past holiday season, we had a lot of snow. Which is assumed when you live in a ski town, but these storms can wreak havoc when you’ve got back-to-back-to-back family sessions that were booked months in advance as well as around other activities that the family has also carefully scheduled. It’s all well […]
