So! The gift bags for the Federated Media cocktail party in New York were kind of jaw dropping thanks to a couple of good friends. Maile from Epiphanie Bags, the woman who did our family photoshoot, offered to give us a bunch of her camera bags:

Then our friends downstairs at Photojojo said they could get us some Fuji Instax Minis and film:

Are these gift bags ludicrous? Yes they are. Do you want one?
Leave a comment telling us something on your life list by Monday, August 30 at noon PST. Your comment enters you for a chance to win the Lola Epiphanie camerabag and Photojojo’s Fuji Instax Mini 25 Instant Camera. I hope you win, because I like you very much. Thanks for reading.
Now for the fine print: Please only leave one comment, because it’s the nice thing to do, and also because multiple entries will be disqualified. I’ll use random.org to select the winner, and I’ll announce who won at the top of this post and in a separate post on Monday.
Visit Paris again, and not leave my boyfriend (now husband) behind this time. Paris is for lovers, after all.

Adorable camera! Something that has been on my life list since I was 8 is visiting the “Nympheas” at Musée de l’Orangerie. It was closed for renovations both times I was lucky enough to go to Paris, if I go again and the museum workers are on strike or something, I will probably throw a fit worthy of my eight-year-old self.

My top priority on that life list is to find my subject. I shoot macros and kids and my kid and feet and events. Where is the project that consumes me? The one that will make some small change in the world, the one that comes from my heart and makes a difference? Ever vigilant.

I’ve been building a life list in my head for months now. Lots of grand ideas and whatnot (foreign countries! hiking! mountains! danger!) that sends my logical, perfectionist (chicken) self into a fit of hand wringing and hives.
The complete opposite of this entire exercise, I know.
So! I decided to start small: Visit a local farm, pick peaches (and maybe plums) and bake a pie. The thought of biting into a peach, straight off the tree, juice running down my arms and chin, makes me giddy. I can’t wait!
