When was the last time you remember stopping to savor the moment? I think that was last weekend, and again today. The weather was so beautiful. Those perfect spring days where it is not to hot or too cold. I find myself wanting to put the caveat that they tell us of the coming blazing [...]

Saturday we did the first shoot for Beauty and Brains. I was pretty intimidated beforehand. On Monday I had 7 models who’d said yes. On Friday I had 3. I went to pick up the gear and it was really cool. Very professional, and way beyond me. Intimidated again. While picking up the gear I [...]

This is the first day of the second section of the book. The “Love Completely” section. If you only had a month to live, whom would you want to spend the time with? Whom would you need to apologize to? Who needs to be assured today that you love them? What keeps you from spending [...]
