Grab A Coffee, Sit With Me Welcome to my longest post yet, where I share my favorite photos that I’ve taken this year. I narrowed it down to ten, ranging across my many travels and experiences in 2025. Take some time, if you like, to enjoy these photos.I’d say treat it like an art gallery,…
Grab A Coffee, Sit With Me Welcome to my longest post yet, where I share my favorite photos that I’ve taken this year. I narrowed it down to ten, ranging across my many travels and experiences in 2025. Although I display the best of my technical skill here, the context surrounding each photo also influenced…
I went with some friends to one of the big Christkindlmarkts in the area. It was on our calendar for weeks, and everything seemed to be on track – until the forecast predicted snow all day!After much debate back and forth in the group chat, we made the decision to “plow” ahead (hehe), driving 20mph…
Hey! We’ve been places. Since you last saw me, I’ve had the great blessing to travel across the country (twice!), experience new events, explore the Midwest, and – my favorite – reunite with friends.

This is not a recent photo. But! The scene of this man gliding down the road is increasingly common as fall comes into full swing, and it captures a few ways I’ve been feeling this week. The crisp air at dawn and dusk has been so soothing for me; as someone who tends to run…

I haven’t posted in a few weeks; here’s a consolation flower. There are many beautiful ones like these at a nearby park. I couldn’t help myself but to keep stopping to admire them, which didn’t please the dog I was walking. I haven’t had a lot of energy to create lately. I’ve been occupied by…
Except for a day of rain, the weather served us really well on a trip to Boston, MA, last week. We met up with a dear friend and his fiancée at the hotel and went on to have a riveting trip filled with new sites and experiences. My girlfriend was the only one familiar with…
Happy belated Independence Day! We took the time to appreciate the community we have, and share in food and friendship before the day ended with a blast of fireworks. It’s a good reminder to cherish the relationships we form next to us, and to fight for the life we wish to live.
