More more about The Gangway and pics of the new house soon!
Fall...
As if moving our entire lives to a new house in a new neighborhood, starting a new job and opening The Gangway wasn't enough activity for this fall, I also decided to sign up for my friend Esther's pattern and drafting class at CCAD. Tonight is the last class and I am hoping that I will have a complete skirt by the end. I have enjoyed getting to know the ladies and GENT (!) in our class and can only hope I will remember how to apply everything I have learned over the past few weeks! I found this wonderful vintage-y fabric to use for my final on sale at Sew to Speak a gem of a fabric store located in the new hood, Clintonville!
An Introduction to The Gangway
Prepping some swag for the bags at Holidayville this weekend. Oh, and a little introduction to The Gangway! Our new gallery/studio in Clintonville.
You've only got one...

From one of my favorites:
“We photographers deal in things which are continually vanishing, and when they have vanished there is no contrivance on earth can make them come back again. We cannot develop and print a memory.”

Happy Birthday, Mom!
I believe there is no coincidence my mom's birthday falls on Guy Fawkes day. A yearly reminder of a revolutionary. A spark to the beginning of November. An introduction to the fiery evenings ahead in the upcoming dark and wintery bliss. I know Mom has conflicted views of her birthday. I can't help but think she feels it's more a burden to celebrate. Secretly, I think she would be just as happy not having a production around her birthday, but is also elated when family friends gather around her. Either way, I feel lucky that this is the woman who birthed me and in a short list of amazing things... who also rioted in the streets for the freedom of others when it still seemed to make a difference, fought for the rights of woman battling deadbeat dads in the late eighties, and who on a daily basis, unfailingly sheds her love, wisdom and light on the family that surrounds her.
Can't wait to dance around the living room with you tonight!
Psst... A little birdy told me something new is coming this way!
We've been busy moving to the new neighborhood and opening up shop.
Deconstructing Nostalgia
While wading in a sea of boxes after moving from a home I lived in for 4 years, I realize that deconstructing nostalgia may be my life's work.
