A Windy Day in Paris

A Windy Day in Paris - Chic Lightroom Presets & Brushes

A Windy Day in Paris    It was a windy summer morning when we emerged from our hotel that day. The city was quiet and the streets were bare. I walked around with a bounce in my step and the breeze blowing through my hair. I love Paris in the morning! It’s the only time when you […]

Notting Hill, London

Notting Hill, London Chic Lightroom Presets & Brushes

Notting Hill, London    These shots were taken in a chic little neighborhood in London. We took an Uber Car from our hotel in Westminster and arrived at this pastel wonderland, otherwise known as Notting Hill! I was excited to finally see those famous colorful homes that I’d seen online. When we arrived, the sun was shining […]

Place Vendome, Paris

Place Vendome, Paris Chic Lightroom Presets

  Place Vendome, Paris    You’ll have to forgive me, I seem to be having a bit of a Grace Kelly moment in these photos taken at Place Vendome in Paris, France. There’s something about Paris that makes me smile a bit brighter, and sometimes that translates into a full out sashay in front of the […]

Picture Perfect Switzerland

Picture Perfect Switzerland

   Switzerland…is there anywhere more majestic? After spending a few days in Lauterbrunnen, I’m officially convinced that I’ve found heaven on earth! We arrived by train on a misty afternoon. At first, all I could see from the window was the fog that danced around the mountain tops and settled gently over the valleys and […]

Afternoon in Amsterdam

Afternoon in Amsterdam

   It’s 9:00 am on a cool summer morning in Amsterdam. We wake up in our rented flat, which is located in the attic of an old historic canal house. We take our time getting ready and marvel at the low beams and 18th-century Dutch architecture above us. At about half past twelve, we grab our cameras […]

Lost and Found in Venice

Lost and Found in Venice

   It’s 8:00 am on the second day of our Venice vacation. We’re staying at a questionable, but cozy Air B&B flat just steps away from the glorious Grand Canal. The air is heavy and full of moisture as we descend the stairs from our flat on the second floor to the main lobby. Venice […]

Swinging London

Swinging London

   If you’re anything like me (a vintage photo junkie) then you are familiar with the iconic photography that came out of London in the 1960’s. And if you’re lucky enough, you may have even lived through the 60’s. Either way…those cheeky black and white stills, filled with big sunglasses and go-go boots had an undeniable impact […]

Free Lightroom Preset – Zoom Zoom!

Free Lightroom Preset - Zoom Zoom!

  I found this white Vespa one day while exploring the streets of Rome. We just finished the most delicious Italian lunch (Spaghetti bolognese & Pinot Grigio) and we happen to take a few wrong turns on our way back to the hotel. The further we walked, the less I recognized. We were lost…which is very […]

I Dream of Rome

  It’s a warm summer morning and life feels rather surreal as we walk down the cobblestone alleyways that lead us to our destination. Our path is laid with Roman balconies and empty outdoor restaurants. The city is sleepy…which is something that we have in common, but the early start is worth it as we approach the […]
