A Mix of Recent Captures
A collection of moments from the antiques faire, photographing my (newish) apartment, experimenting with self-portraits on my Rolleiflex, and an evening downtown.
Back Again
A few weekends ago I went to Berkeley for the afternoon and a concert at The Greek. It’s one of my favorite venues, and this time I got to see Lake Street Dive for the first time. I took the train down there and caught a ride home with friends who also went to the show.
Made my usual stops at Stonemountain & Daughter, Pegasus Books, and then a new stop at Roses’ per recommendation from new friends. The space is so lovely. It’s a wine, beer, and small bites spot with great vibes and customer service.
LA for the Day
I flew down to LA recently to get tattooed by Alyssa DiGirolamo. I got three pieces done and love them so much. Couldn’t recommend Alyssa enough. She was so kind, cool, and does incredible work.
I'm so Proud
This was surprisingly my first Pride event. Sacramento made me proud, seeing so many queer folks and allies showing up to support one another and spread love.
CDW & Berkeley
Apparently this is the season of concerts for me, as I was able to see Charlotte Day Wilson for the first time in May in San Francisco. Her show was everything I wanted it to be - vibey, moody, and so sexy. Her music was a huge support in discovering my own queer identity. Coming into my queerness showed me just how important it is to see our identities reflected in life - music, movies, television, stories, etc. These days I find it hard to watch purely cis-het media. Listening to CDW sing about love and relationships with women connected to something deep within me.
To celebrate the last day of school at the end of May I went to Berkeley to visit my favorite fabric shop and book store. I asked one of the employees at the fabric store about local queer/lesbian bars, and they suggested Friends and Family. I found my way there and loved everything about it. From there I went to the Greek to see Tedeschi Trucks Band.
