A week ago today, I turned 30. If I’d had any concerns about approaching this landmark age, the past 7 days have swept them away. I’ve had a lot of fun, a lot of time with close friends + family, some terribly indulgent delicious food, and best of all, a host of new projects and clients. I’ve been playing around with old toy cameras and my new Fuji instax, shooting super wide, shooting shows, shooting friends, capturing little details. If this week is a reflection of the new decade I have ahead, then goodbye sweet twenties! You were a lot of fun, but this is dreams-come-true time.
Lately I’ve been sharing a lot of my inspiration + casual documentation on tumblr and posting images on flickr. A lot of the stories, songs, and sweet faces that have shaped February can be found on both. It’s been refreshing to give myself no rules on what I post, to have fun, to take a literal ton of photos without being too cerebral.
A glimpse of the results…
And, to top it off, a sweet new image of me + my party lens, by the magical Patrick Wright.

Thirty! You rule.
