Lyndsay






It was a beautiful day in December when this girl bounced into my studio. I suggested we go play on the roof and she was game. We had a great time running all over, dancing in the studio, singing showtunes and creating set after set.
Enjoy!

Paris Above Ground
















We had such a short time in Paris and the Metros were really my focus so I didn't have much time to shoot above ground. Especially when you think about what you do when you are a tourist, museums and stuff, you end up inside a lot and running around quickly from place to place. I hope to go back again for a longer period of time, a full week, and spend more time just chillin in the cafes and sampling the amazing desserts.
Enjoy!

Paris Metros

















We took a break from Amsterdam to head to Paris for a few days specifically so I could shoot the metro system. After my photos from Washington D.C.' s Metro were so well recieved we thought it would be fun to expand on this theme. Using a list in our guidebook of some of the coolest metro stops we ran all over the city going from stop to stop, trying to do so without having to buy more metro tickets. There were a few times where I found myself going down an up escalator or jumping a turnstile, after all, we had just made a mistake. We're tourists? Ne comprend pas?
Enjoy!!

Amsterdam
















In November my husband and I went on trip to Amsterdam and then Paris to celebrate our 3 year anniversary and my upcoming, gulp, 30th birthday. We had an amazing time visiting the sites and sounds. Some of the highlights were the Albert Cuyp Market, the Van Gogh Museum, the Red Light District and the Anne Frank House. As a Jewish couple we also made it a priority to visit the Jewish Museum and the Portugeuse Synagogue, the oldest synagogue in Amsterdam, that was so well hidden we walked around it three times before we realized what it was. Our favortie activity was just walking the streets sampling the best of what Amsterdam had to offer, great beer!
