Brooklyn Heights Promenade. 9/11/2012

This car sits around in our neighborhood, blue and lovely and unloved.

We’ve now got two dogs. Eight months after adopting Farley, a half-blind, 8-year-old shih tzu from the ASPCA in Manhattan, we’ve also adopted Ron, a rambunctious 11-year-old of the same breed. Our little Brooklyn Heights apartment is fairly bursting with love.

Dinner with people we’re lucky to have as friends. I was wondering when our little dining table would buckle from the weight of everyone’s loveliness, but it didn’t, which leads me to believe that the table itself must be lovely, too.

Spent the past 1.5 days at Shinn Estate Vineyards for a special feature in our magazine. I love this old truck.

Wedding month-a-versary. Still my favorite subject (please pardon the cheese).

[Shot with my brilliant, just purchased Nikon D300 with 50mm f/1.8 fixie lens. Love is everywhere.]

Adam & Laura come over for dinner | March 31, 2012. 

Fun, loving, adorable new family, and a set of awesome friends to go with it. I’m so lucky to have married into all of this.

Faith and Melody are playing the music for our wedding ceremony, and I’m thankful to have such fabulous friends.

one minute you’re letting the dust gather on the digital piano; another minute, you’re getting married and taking a picture of your refreshingly non-diamond, rose de france amethyst engagement ring on said dusty digital piano.
