Missouri

I'm just a Midwestern girl with a mind full of stories. Vintage-lover, cat lady, and certified foodie.

Interests: These are as varied and changeable as the weather we're known for in Missouri! Some of them are: writing, knitting, cooking, and fashion. I have a daughter who is as erratic and creative as her mother, and a husband who is patient with us both!

Recent Activity

Hello everyone, It's been a fantastic year, and I am looking forward to a fresh start in 2015! As you've probably noticed, I haven't been blogging here on Typepad much lately. I have decided that I will now blog exclusively on the blog attached to my Squarespace website. Paying two... Continue reading

New Favorite Blog: Becoming Minimalist

One of my goals as I approached 40 was to start living my life in such a way that less is more. I've touched on this philosophy in prior posts, but I think at this time of year, it is especially poignant. I did a really good job of avoiding... Continue reading

Signature Scents

My Favorite Fragrances by zaftigfashion featuring an eau de parfum perfume Fragrance and I haven't always had the best track record. Perfume tends to fade very quickly on my skin, and seldom does it last all day. Except...when it's bad. For example, that time in junior high when I spritzed... Continue reading

Gluten-Free For Life

As I mentioned in my prior post, food and I haven't always had the healthiest relationship. I've turned to unhealthy eating habits in times of stress, happy times - basically at any point in my life with emotional extremes. I never really looked at food as medicine. I didn't, until...

Rain + Thoughts on Gluttony {Outfit Post}

It's been a long time since I've done an outfit post. I've kind of shifted gears a bit in life lately, and as my 40th birthday approaches, I've been really contemplative. There are changes I'm making in my life - trying to create healthier habits for myself and my family,... Continue reading

Flyover Photography

So, I'm really putting myself out here with this one... Two years ago, when I picked up my husband's little Canon Rebel XS and started taking pictures of cats and flowers, I was completely clueless about photography. Most of my pictures were just okay at best - blurry around the... Continue reading

Wildwood Flower {Editorial Concept Shoot}

For my very first editorial concept shoot, I wanted to evoke the golden, summery feeling of the late '60s - the era of Joan Baez, Loretta Lynn, and Joni Mitchell. Kayleigh brought a romantic vulnerability to these pictures. It was really hard to cull any of our shoot, because she... Continue reading

Kayleigh Rose Concert {Photo Essay}

Shooting concerts can be quite challenging. I had my first experience with shooting live performances back in March for our town's annual Mardi Gras celebration. I learned a lot about how to shoot(and not to shoot) in low light during that experience. It's something that takes lots of patience and... Continue reading

Kim {Portraits}

The thing that I find most rewarding about shooting portraits, is that after the self-conscious walls begin to fall, and your model becomes comfortable with you - you get to see a glimpse of their soul. Kim recently had her hair colored bright blue, and asked me to document this... Continue reading

This Father's Day, I wanted to share something very personal with you, which makes me so incredibly thankful that this day is no longer a date on the calendar I dread.

One of the things about blogging I love is the unique platform it gives to women. Lifestyle bloggers are predominantly female. We write about things that interest us, share our personal style, and the lives of our families with our readers. But there's also something that really bothers me about... Continue reading

Sunshine and Wildflowers {Outfit}

Finding photo locations that are both accessible and picturesque can be challenging. And then, there are the unexpected places like this one - a gazebo in the middle of an open field, surrounded by wildflowers. I have no idea who put this gazebo here, or why - but they must... Continue reading

The Perfect Light {Outfit}

So much about learning photography is catching the right light. I would love to be able to shoot during the golden hour every day - the time when the sun is low in the sky, and exposure is at maximum potential. But I work until later in the evening, and... Continue reading

Timmons Temple {Photo Essay}

It would be a tragedy. A masterpiece of craftsmanship and a testimony to the faith of earlier generations, Timmons Temple, an African American church built during the segregated Jim Crow era, may be destroyed. Why? To build efficiency apartments. I'm a preservationist - you can read more about how I... Continue reading
