A Love Fest: 9/9/17

Becky and Zach- thank you for letting me capture what was the beginning of a very beautiful day and a true celebration of your fabulous family!

"We honor mother-earth and ask for our marriage to be abundant and grow stronger through the seasons. We honor fire - and ask that our union be warm and glowing with love in our hearts"

- excerpt from Cherokee Wedding Prayer

Hola ~~~ ΧαίρΡτΡ ~~~ Π—Π΄Ρ€Π°Π²Π΅ΠΉΡ‚Π΅ ~~~ Ω…Ψ±Ψ­Ψ¨Ψ§

I know, I am AWFUL at consistently adding content to my home page but please take a look around at the travel collections as new images are being added to galleries all the time. I will be making an effort to feature some highlights from our travels over the past year in the coming weeks and months. To follow our adventures in a more timely manner my instagram feed tends to get all the attention...this needs to change (: 

As always if you're interested in purchasing a print or if you have questions about a particular image please send me a message on the inquires page.

Also stay tuned for my summer art fair calendar!

Taking time to explore

We've been filling almost every weekend in 2017 with roadtrips across Andalucia or bouncing around the Iberian peninsula....here's my attempt to catch up with some of those scenes....

Porto, Portugal

Daily Destinations Around Mallorca

Alaró & Pollença

Points of Interest:

AlarΓ³: Below are many views of Castillo de Alaro that was built by the island's Christian inhabitants to ward off invasions from pirates. Also featured is the town's Saturday market in the town square

PollenΓ§a: This town was founded by the Catalans in the 13th century. A major highlight is the Calvary steps, 365-step stairway north of the square; this leads up to a chapel on top of the hill known as Calvary

SΓ³ller & Port de SΓ³ller

Points of Interest:

Soller: The tren de Soller, also called "Vitamin C Express, " connects the valley of Soller to the capitol Palma. At one time a vital trade route now serves as a scenic route for tourists while they ride the wooden railway cars. 

Port de Soller: Situated in a horseshoe harbor surrounded by the Tramuntana Mountains this village is stunning from all angles. 

A Taste of Local Culture

We quickly discovered that Mallorca, as we hear is true of Spain in general, is a place that loves to celebrate local harvests, saints, and traditions. These celebrations maintain a strong sense of community and culture while also providing the avenue for the continuation of another tradition in Mallorca; having a good time.  November in Mallorca saw us exploring many local festivals dedicated to wine, mushrooms, honey, and olives. Our own city of Inca hosted many fiestas centered around the celebration of Dijous Bo. Although some of the festivities felt foreign or unfamiliar to us; one can feel very at home when sharing in the appreciation for local foods and products. Plus who doesn't love drinking local wine or grilling your own sausages and mushrooms on a grill in a city street.
