Though it’s not our area of expertise (unless consuming cake is an area of expertise), we spend some time each week on wedding-themed Pinterest boards filled with cakes, particularly when we’re getting a feel for clients’ aesthetic ahead of designing an invitation suite. All of that is to say, it’s not entirely a surprise to […]

Coffee is my favorite part of Monday mornings. Actually that’s not relevant here at all; we’ll get back that another day. A favorite stop for mornings in general, though, is the corner of the internet inhabited by Colossal. I’ve written about it before, and I certainly will again; Christopher Jobson’s curation of contemporary art never disappoints. […]
What a week. Friday came and went, and it caught me kind of off-guard; I wasn’t upset to leave the office and head to The Sinclair and Tasty Burger with Jack and a friend visiting from the left coast last night. We’re staying in Boston this weekend, for the first time in a few weeks, […]
As we were heading back from New Hampshire on Sunday, cell service returned – and I received a flurry of twitter notifications, including one from Nathaniel Fink with a photo of his photo of us in the latest Momentum Magazine.
I tried, again, to capture some firework magic this year. A tripod helps for sure; the “good” camera doesn’t hurt. Here are a few of my favorite after-dark photos from our time in New Hampshire.

We rounded out our staycation week with Fourth of July festivities and our annual weekend trek to New Hampshire for lakeside talent shows and shenanigans. We were off the grid for a few days, so here’s a bit of what we were up to last week. Left to right, top to bottom: 1-fireworks on Fort […]
When I got word at the last minute that I could take this whole holiday week off, visions of fabled “free time” danced through my head. Not so much. (Turns out, we have plenty of work outside of work to catch up on.) If you’re looking toward the weekend anxiously, and perhaps considering your festive […]
Two weeks ago, while we were whiling away the weekend on Sturdivant Island, we found ourselves with no occasion to use our camera tripod because the supermoon was super cloud-covered. Since we hauled it to the island by boat, it seemed a shame; we gathered up some friends and some sparklers instead. Using a tripod […]
For your Sunday: the most adorably macabre ad campaign for train safety that we ever did see. There’s a tumblr blog of GIFs, too! Good luck getting that jingle out of your head. video credit: Dumb Ways to Die, from Metro Trains and McCann
