late summer afternoon

My boys.


clover & wine

009

I work in downtown Philadelphia six days a week, which culminates in a desire to seize every opportunity I can to leave town. It doesn’t need to be very far; leaving the city feel of a city is enough. On Sunday I made it to Clover Market for the first time after hearing about [...]

une maison dans les montagnes

magog

On Day 4 we left Montréal for the Eastern Townships, a region in scenic southern Quebec. We stayed in Magog, right on Lake Memphrémagog. It’s about 20 miles from the US-Canada border and is situated among mountains, rolling hills, vineyards, and lakes. The traffic lights on the main street of Magog play classical music. Driveways [...]


montréal, three and four, trois et quatre

I scrambled to take photos of our Montréal apartment as we were checking out. Putting things off to the last second, literally, is an unfortunate forté of mine.

We underutilized our kitchen by using it only to fetch cups and store bagels in the fridge. We found this place using Airbnb, which I highly recommend it [...]


house and dog on a lake

Dan and I stayed with Ellington en route to Montreal last Friday. She lives on an island on Lake Champlain, and her driveway slopes downhill, leading directly to the water.  She has a dog named Deuce, and his favorite toy is a stuffed animal named Dog. We took Deuce out for a swim on Friday [...]


condensation :: montreal day 2

DSC_0050-1

The last time I checked the weather before packing last weekend, the forecast predicted temperatures in the mid 50s (F) with a moderate chance of showers. In reality, the past two days have been in the mid-70s to 80s with abundant sunshine!

Sunday morning immediately following my last post, we walked to Lawrence for brunch. It opened at [...]


hello from montreal :: day one.

DSC_0036

HI! I’m writing to you from Montreal, Quebec!

It’s been less than 24 hours since I arrived here with my boyfriend Dan for a week long stay in Quebec. As I write this, we’re at a sports espresso bar close to the apartment where we’re staying, and it’s also 8:30am! Bonjour, indeed. We rented an apartment [...]


cadence

4-14-12038

Expired film is like throwing a curve ball straight into your material. Up the grain, warp the colors, destabilize the contrast… I can’t say for sure whether extended time is kind to film, just that one’s mileage will vary each and every time. I put an aged roll of black and white film into my Pentax last [...]


on the cusp

Autosave-File vom d-lab2/3 der AgfaPhoto GmbH

It’s too chilly for mosquitoes, but warm enough to activate seasonal allergies, and most importantly, iced coffee. Dan and I took advantage of the unseasonably temperate climate and took a long stroll around my neighborhood. Impatience got the best of me, so I’m posting the lab scans (with some minor tweaking) for now. I’ll certainly [...]
