Any idea what the items are in the picture above? Perhaps you've got a sweet tooth and recognize them as Twizzlers and Wonka nerds.

And delicious, of course. … Continue reading Lorax night at ASH

Yoga and the best shift ever
Have you seen this heartwarming video? I myself tried to resist the repeated postings and “likes” on Facebook, but finally caved a few days ago and watched it. I cried. There was something so touching about Chelsea’s story – her own recovery from an eating disorder, the support she provides to her younger sibling, her … Continue reading Yoga and the best shift ever

I was lucky enough to shoot photos at two related events this past weekend in downtown Albany.
