California Calm and Cool with Mydomaine and Amanda Barnes Xx

The holidays are only days away and already things are so very busy! What better way to start off the season than with this calming space? 

Sentimental as it may sound, Amanda Barnes Interiors made room for her clients to create memories. Intentionally calming color palettes and dual-purpose rooms for this growing family. As a photographer & stylist, I am drawn to the substance she's created in such gentle soothing spaces.

Known for having many talents: incredible mother, talented designer, and wonderful friend, Amanda's work speaks for itself. She is most recognized for her comfortable and chic family-friendly homes. This Silicon Valley home tour is no different, a peaceful extension of her beloved clients, which includes its own personalized meditation room.  

I am wishing  each of you a Holiday filled with love and warmth. I am hoping this space will set the tone for a relaxing holiday season. Thank you to the talented team at MYDOMAINE for supporting my collaborations. I am always so grateful to collaborate with such talented and inspiring women. Sending you all Love. Xx

A Color Rich Austin Home to Brighten Any Day on MYDOMAINE

Designer..... it’s such a blanket word, covering so many genres of creative expression. But when I say the Elizabeth Mollin is a designer, well, I feel like it’s not a big enough word for her talent. She’s a textile designer. An interior designer. She’s the designer behind interesting and gorgeous custom wallpaper lines. So, yes, she’s a designer, and so much more. 

I was introduced to Elizabeth’s work, Stone Textile, a few years ago through one of my first clients. Quickly we developed a mutual admiration for the others art form and maintained contact—that’s the gift of social media, the ease in which we connect and stay connected. Three years later, I happily accepted the opportunity to photograph Elizabeth’s work. 

Elizabeth has established a reputation as a designer with impeccable taste and fearless use of gorgeous jewel tones and dynamic patterns. Her innate ability to anchor bright and bold elements and compliment them with rest sets her apart. You’ll love every moment of her work.

Congratulations, Elizabeth, on this MYDOMAINE feature. And as always, it’s an honor to be invited into these projects and to work with the talented editors at MYDOMAINE. Click HERE for more details. Xx

DOMINO MAGAZINE | Fall in love with Color, Collections, and A Beautiful Mess

Her blog is called A Beautiful Mess but there’s much more beauty than mess. I recently had the privilege to shoot the home of Elsie Lawson: blogger, lover of color, and new-to-Nashville transplant. As you might expect, her home is wall-to-wall inspiration—loaded with color, fun, and genuine personality. She’s mastered the art of displaying uncomplicated collections, knowing when to push color and when to rely on white paint to offer rest. Floor to ceiling, Elsie’s home strikes the perfect balance—bold yet soft, bright yet calm, patterns and peace. It’s a hive of creativity and life, full of house plants that make me happy. 

As always, it’s an honor to work with Domino Magazine—to see more of Elsie’s happy home, pick up the Fall Issue TODAY Xx And thank you, Elsie, for sharing your bright spirit and Beautiful Mess. Xx

Architectural Digest Feature Settles IT: Black is Back and Layers are In!!

Sean Anderson likes his layers and I personally love shooting them. His latest Master Suite in this warm Memphis home is a testament to what I’m telling you: Black is back and layers are in!!! Rich, warm black-tones set the mood for a master suite that magically feels equal parts art gallery, Smithsonian, and the coziest bedroom ever!!!! His layers are works of art—like jigsaw puzzles fitting together perfectly to adorn a wall without overwhelming the space. With creative and curated collections adorning the walls and comfort at every turn, this master suite is a remarkable space. Take a look HERE! 

And, as always, thanks to Sean Anderson for the beautiful work and Architectural Digest for the opportunity to continue to work with you.
