I have been brainstorming these collages for a while but didn't know how to execute them until now. I am so excited to have found a program that allows me to do this.
These fruits and vegetables can be found at the Green City Farmers Market in Chicago.
Makes me miss summer!!

Sunrise over lake michigan
I moved to a new apartment recently and I have a view of Lake Michigan. Its taken me 3 weeks to finally catch any glimpse of the sunrise. I think I was a few minutes too late for the real deep colors but I will have this view for a while and hopefully get a chance to catch it again.

First Published Photograph in A Book!!
I set a goal to have a travel book published and this is the first step. One of my photographs is in the Traveling Companion guide in the Birthright Israel Book. Thank you Wayne Hoffman!!
Bellagio Photograph in antique frame
One of my most popular images from Bellagio, Italy framed inside an antique frame. I found these frames at the antique market in Chicago last summer. I have had these empty for so long because I couldn't decide what to put inside. The frames are matching which is a rare find and I would love for them to be sold as a pair if possible. The pair would be $500 + shipping.
The photograph is 16x20 framed with antique glass so there is no glare. It looks more like a painting in person than a photograph. The total frame and photo measure 25" W x 29" H

Whats winter without a little Ttv? My camera was filled with snow pretty quickly so I wasn't able to capture what I wanted. But here is one. Hopefully with the new snow coming tonight I can get some great shots tomorrow.

Outside of my new apartment. I can't wait to see the seasons change on this view. I have screens up on all my windows but I was able to shoot this through the bathroom window without dropping the camera. Stay tuned to watch the seasons change on this favorite spot of mine.

Day 2 of the snowfall in Chicago. I was able to capture the snow this morning because I woke up earlier than yesterday! But the snow was still falling at a rapid rate. I was covered in snow and so were all 3 of my cameras. Maybe day 3 is the charm?
IMG_0048
Snow has officially hit Chicago. I woke up yesterday morning to capture the first snow fall and it melted so quickly. I found myself at the lakefront and captured this view of the city.

Walk through the canals of Venice in this photograph. I have been to Venice 5 times and still feel like there is more to be discovered. There are many famous bridges and canals but this is just a typical canal. The gondolas are lined up ready to take people to their desired destinations.

Ryan in a hat by Willo
I have had the wonderful opportunity to work with Alicia from Etsy. Her shops are http://willo.etsy.com/ and http://willotoo.etsy.com/ She knits the most beautiful hats, booties, and more for adults and kids. Both boys and girls. Please check out her shop. They are a great gift item. She is based out of the UK but she ships all over. My items arrived in about a week. It takes her about 2 weeks to custom make the pieces so I would suggest putting in your Christmas orders ASAP!!
Ryan's Mom was nice enough to allow me to photograph Ryan in a hat by Willo. Alicia handcrafted this beautiful newsboy cap. The cap worked perfectly with Ryan because of his blue eyes. The cap can be purchased here for $25 : http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=32588138
