vegan muffins

Grandeur Peak, Utah - March, 2015

A hike to the top with friends & vegan muffins for fuel.  

A view of Salt Lake City. 

A waxing gibbous. ☾

lomatium

My new lomatium rings are inspired by a week in the high desert.  The feeling of sleeping under the stars, smokin' herb and making dashboard sunprints after a canyon white-out.  Friends, campfires, mysterious limestone crimps, lunar rings and moonlit contrails. Eating sand & losing a mitten on the way back from pooping in the trees...the magical river, too.

(not the poop part, just the magic part.)

honeymooooon!

Saint Maarten, Christmas 2012

I've had some time to play with lately as I get settled into my new home in Colorado.  Seeing as I won't be moving into my new studio space until the new year (yes, I found one!), I've been shooting a lot of film as well as looking back at past adventures.  I think I have a thing for semi-arid places :)  Rinny the sloth came to me two years ago as a Christmas present from Tim while he and I were honeymooning in St. Maarten.  I figure we could all go for a little sea & sunshine right now.  And the moon, always.  

Happy holidays!!!
