Friday Favorites: Richard Avedon
Richard Avedon’s portraits are lovely and simple. He’s known for photographing Marilyn Monroe, The Beatles, Andy Warhol, the 1982 Versache campaign, and Harper’s Bazaar.
His black and white portraits have a distinct look and feel to them, like this one of Bridgitte Bardot.
So Beautiful! (Let’s admit it: you could probably take a pretty awesome pic of her just with an...
Weekend Highlights
One of my highlights of Christmas happened after dinner on Sunday. Mom passed out candles and we all started singing Christmas carols. What fun!
Cate grabbed my camera so that I could join the family in the photo!
On Christmas eve, everyone met over at Anna and Jason’s for a great brunch. I think that’s going to be a new tradition.
On the night of Christmas eve, we girls...
Friday Favorites: The Buried Life
I love the guys on this show, but even more, I love the idea: at the beginning of every show, the guys ask, “So, what do you want to do before you die?” The four guys have all kinds of outrageous stuff on their lists, and they check things off systematically on the show.

Weekend Highlights
My friends and I decided it was time for a really good holiday dance party. So Vanessa opened her house, Austin set up his DJ equipment, and we had a fantastic night dancing and celebrating on Saturday.
I love my friends!
Three of my sisters made it to the party, which was fun! We didn’t mean to coordinate but definitely did. Had to grab a photo:
Last week, Blake, Holly, Ward,...
Friday Favorites: David Sedaris

A reviewer from Boston Globe writes, “It’s not just that Sedaris’ crisp prose is humorous. What makes his work a consistent joy to read is his...
Weekend Highlights
On Friday I was able to shoot the most fun company Christmas party I’ve ever been to. HTI held their Christmas party at Zen, a beautiful event space in downtown Greenville, and my friend Anna invited me to shoot the event. The band was amazing (Hip Pocket from Greensboro, NC), everyone looked great, and the night was definitely as fun as any wedding reception I’ve attended!

Weekend Highlights
One of the highlights of the weekend was Sunday night’s “lessons and carols” service followed by a great little Christmas party at the house where Meg, Tara-Leigh, Marlena, and Emily live. The house is adorable and perfect for hosting get-togethers, and I think over a hundred people actually showed up!
Ah, I love Christmas!
Another highlight of the weekend was...
