Monday Musings: Food
I have made some pretty significant changes in terms of what I eat this year. This is not necessarily for loosing weight, although I am happy to say that I have lost 6.6 Pounds so far. It is really about considering what I consume and whether or not it is a benefit to my overall health. Many of you will...
Monday Musings: Yoga
Is shedding a few tears during "relaxed pose" normal? On occasion I seem to go to a place at the end of the hour long class that leads me to do this. I am not sure if it is an emotional release or the fact that often times I seem to end up thinking of my Dad who passed away...
Monday Musings: Money
This week I am musing about money! In fact I have been musing about money for a few months now. The trigger was watching ZACH & JODY GRAY on CREATIVE LIVE and they kept banging on about this guy called DAVE RAMSAY who changed their lives. They said it enough times that I decided it was time for a little...

Slow Boat to China
Craig: Originally a trading port, Guangzhou is considered one of the most influential financial districts in China, which is quite evident in the modern skyscrapers that line the skyline along the Pearl river in Zhujiang New Town. Like every large city though, poorer areas dominate large areas within. If I were to describe Guangzhou in a word, that word would...

And so the love affair with my Contax 645 and film continues. More images from my trip to the Cape in December with my mom. I really and truly love shooting with this camera.

South Beach Miami {film}
We recently traveled to South Beach Miami and I really didn't have any expectations. The only thing I knew about Miami was gained from watching episodes of Miami Ink! Turns out it is a pretty fun place to visit. Turns out the cocktails come in 1L giant glasses. Turns out we had so much fun that I wish I had...
