I'm originally from Atlanta, Georgia but lived in San Francisco for a handful of years before moving to London, where we lived for 6 years, and now we're back in Atlanta. We couldn't I can't resist the lure of home sweet home--family, steamy summer nights, sweat tea and grits!
I've written for craft and vintage lifestyle magazines such as Mollie Makes, Pretty Nostalgic and 91 Magazine. My book, London Stitch and Knit, a guide to London's fabric, knitting and haberdashery shops, was published by Black Dog Publishing September 2015. For the book, I did the writing, photos, and styling and Ryn Frank provided the handwritten type and charming map illustrations. While the book includes illustrated maps, I've also created a Google Map of all the shops in the book, where I will update any changes to shop locations (or new openings or closures) should they arise. Feel free to use and print the map. Please send me an email if you'd like more examples of my writing.
I also love food and have hosted a food styling and photography workshop with Beatrice Peltre as well as a London cooks tour with ACE Camps.
Photos on my blog are with one of three cameras: my iPhone using instagram, a Sony DSC-RX100, or with a Canon 7D using a few different lenses. For photos that accompany my writing, I always use the Canon 7D. At the bottom of each post I've tried to add a label noting which camera I've used for the photos in that post.
