From last week, mid-deep-freeze in Central Texas. I took a few mini-adventures around the yard while we passed the time in between huddling around a tiny propane heater and waiting for power to come back on. Clearly, ice-glazed things became my muse, forcing me to slow down and take in all of the small details of the freeze, and leaving me with beautiful souvenirs of what was otherwise a terrible experience. Nothing like Mother Nature to keep you humble about basic necessities. All’s well that ends well. 😅❄️

“Well! I’ve often seen a cat without a grin,” thought Alice; “but a grin without a cat!? It’s the most curious thing I ever saw in my life!” 🌙💜💖😸

📷: Photo captured on a crisp November morning, literally just footsteps from my (current) front door in Tennessee. The sun was moments away from breaking the horizon, casting her vibrant colors across the sky, as if celebrating another glorious rising. Birds dipped across the frost-bitten fields, broadcasting the renewal of daylight. Just ten minutes ago I was snuggled in bed, warm & asleep. My body shivered now, I could see my breath. I rubbed my eyes, in hopes to accelerate the “waking up” process. Directly overhead, seemingly watching this scene awaken, a thin sliver of moon glowed like a Cheshire Cat grin through the painted streaks of clouds. I blinked a few more times to clear my vision, then lifted my camera to eye level, and proceeded to get lost in the beauty of the morning... 😍

Still riding high on camp vibes from this past weekend -- a night spent snuggled up to red sandstone towers, under a bright waxing gibbous moon; waking up to the sound of rain drops lightly flicking the taut fabric of the tent, and deep breaths of that musky, dusty, creosote-laden smell that only the desert can create with a little rain. Feelin' humbled & whole. ♡

Welcome, April! 💐
One evening a few spring seasons ago while driving around hunting for wildflowers in the Texas Hill Country, we stumbled across a field like no other. It seemed like a real-life Van Gogh painting -- a rainbow palette of vibrant colors artistically scattered about. The golden evening light cast a magical glow across this colorful sea of Paintbrushes, Bluebonnets, and DYC's. I gleamed with joy while shooting this extraordinary scene, it felt a bit surreal! If there's one thing I now miss about Texas, it is definitely the extravagant show of springtime wildflowers. 🌸
I hope April brings some type of bloom your way, literally and/or figuratively. Spring always follows Winter. 🌱
