Hello beautiful bride 🤍🕊️
This series of portraits was taken before she said yes 🪽 I deliberately chose to do in it in black and white, because I didn’t want any color to be distracting from the raw emotions she was showing. Since she’s so discreet, the black and white just drives the focus more intensely. I think she came out beautifully, and it was such a perfect moment to be sharing with her, to help her get ready, and knowing she made her wedding dress herself was honestly spectacular.
Barbara, what have you done 💕
It is wild to be a millennial and hit your thirties, and then people like your best friend suddenly become an “adult” overnight basically, and get hitched ! Like I’m sorry, I kinda missed the memo on that one… I’m not aware we’re out of teenage-hood yet, but hard reality slap 😂😭 thanks for that !
No seriously, I am beyond proud and happy for her. This photoshoot was so special, because we escaped the wedding festivities, so she could take a breather, and walk in this beautiful countryside that’s surrounding the place. In the moment she was a fairy to me, wearing this mini dress that she made herself, and I just had this Lykke Li – I Follow Rivers song playing in the back of my mind, watching her basically flying off her feet from happiness, and I just started snapping a few shots to really immortalize this beautiful moment.
I think I caught her just like she always was, and forever will be, a true wild forest spirit 🩷
I get lost looking at the skies ✨
There’s something just so peaceful about it. I watch it all unravel from my window, how Mother Nature is so strong and beautiful. Then I go for walks in the woods, and there’s more enchantment to be found there as well. It’s never-ending when we can disconnect from everything but what grounds us.
On another note, I’ve opened up my closet on Vinted… click here to see what I’ve put out ! 🤗
I still can’t believe we have a Krispy Kreme in Paris ! 🍩
Krispy Kreme was so part of my American life 😍 Back in California whenever I was craving some donuts, I’d go there if I could. Sure there were other options, but I was always a Krispy Kreme fan. I’m bringing everyone I know there now, with a side of coffee for optimal enjoyment.
Paris is always so beautiful when it’s sunny… it’s so unfortunate that we can’t have much of that weather.

Hello ! Took another break 🤪
I was actually seriously sick for basically two months straight, it was insane. My immune system completely gave up on me, and I caught all kinds of silly viruses, and the recovery process was so long… I just couldn’t do much else.
Finally feeling some better, the weather in Paris is so sh*tty though, I’m having a hard time. It’s definitely not helping with my rheumatoid arthritis symptoms… I wish we’d just move to the South of France 🙏 one day maybe !
In the meantime, I was visited by my best friend Barbara, who came all the way from Switzerland 🤗 we had an amazing time together, I miss her so much, always. Long distance relationships are hard, but when it’s true love, it’s lasting no matter what. Although, you do have to nurture it.
