made world cupcakes with genie - whose rule for deciding anything is to base it off of where the cute men are. thus, she roots for spain because the soccer players are decidedly more attractive than those of the netherlands. pretty good tactic...since spain won.

july 4th

in honor of independence day
a mysteriously and magnificently overexposed (and yes, uneditted, i'll mention when the edits resume..) snap of my cousin anna

no doubt one of the most stunning people i know
not to mention, seamlessly photogenic

and really, i keep tabs on her life through her photographs,
as tacoma washington is heartbreakingly far to travel to without an emergency

i wouldn't be surprised
if i dig into myself during some impending midlife crisis
and realize she
was part of the reason
i started taking pictures in the first place

have fun in argentina
i'd say "i'll miss you"
but that's assuming that i don't always
and i do
love, soph

july 3rd

june 30th

portrait of the artist with two close friends

this, as you all probably know, is myself, grace, and genie.
these two hold outrageously expensive ocean view properties in my heart.

this is us, together maybe for the last time before our enormous piles of summer activities begin. for the most part, we wait the whole year for our lovely, busy, hot and humid summers, and each of us jam packs them like a backpacker's suitcase. we've got shoulders to tan, musicians to yell at, doors to canvass, old friends to hug, guest beds to sleep in, pictures to take, phone calls to make, flip flops to break, classics to read, burritos to eat, secrets to burn, other people's LIVES to learn..and everything inbetween.

there's this thing about the best of interpersonal bonds, the thing that really allows you to think,um, wow, i guess i've transcended the confines of my thick old bones and have tied myself, in some strange, fierce, metaphora/physical way to these people. the thing that makes you say, with such sudden, flushing sincerity, i LOVE you! not in the jittery, roses and chocolates, sex&marriage way. in the friend way. the thing is this: by some flip of the switch, these people know who you are. you can't explain it, because it's not a trait they have or a wisdom they've pursued, it's just the way they are. they see through your skin.

i love the two of you because of this.

so as we go off on our nutty crunchy summer globe trotting summer adventures, i just want to thank you. for chinese food, borrowed tshirts, and midnight semi lucid phone conversations. for being there for me, but also, for letting me be there for you. for unabashedly telling me when i'm being a bitch. and for forgiving me afterwords. for being so silly, and snazzy, and smart. and for everything i can't begin to mention.

shut up. you know exactly what i mean.

and thanks for being in all my pictures yo! peace out!
