SOMEONE, I TELL YOU, IN ANOTHER TIME, WILL REMEMBER US -

SAPPHO

𝙎𝙪𝙧𝙧𝙤𝙪𝙣𝙙 𝙮𝙤𝙪𝙧𝙨𝙚𝙡𝙛 𝙬𝙞𝙩𝙝 𝙥𝙤𝙨𝙞𝙩𝙞𝙫𝙚 𝙥𝙚𝙤𝙥𝙡𝙚. ― You’ve heard this way too many times. But then again MAYBE not enough.💭 Hear me out: you need people who are good for your mental health in your life. Whether it’s family, friends, coworkers, neighbors or clients. ▲ There’s already soooo much chaos with the world as it is, that we need uplifiting people who believe in the good outcome of things. ♥️ People who are kind, compassionate and enjoy everyday life. You need them to learn, become and grow like them. ▲ I know we’d all say we’re too busy to stop our lives to analyze what kind of energy we want to be close to. But it’s sooo worth the time to consciously do so. 🕰 Precisely because you’re time is THAT valuable! Once you get a hang of it, choosing energy becomes easier, and you just have to decide if you want to be surrounded by complaining, negativity and 🚷 bad energy VS. people who can create goodness for themselves and those around them 🔑. ▲ In my case I’m crazy blessed to be able to luck out and detect this good energy with clients. From reading their first email, to a dog packed facetime, to back and forth communication till their amazing wedding day. I discover who they are and I fall in love with their high spirits, their joie de vivre, with the kindness in them. And if I don’t, I’m not the photographer for them. ― Life and works becomes easier if you choose good energy. So please be selective in choosing what makes you happy! // Maulik and Preya, you raised the bar and have been a measuring point of high energy and positivity and everything good! My love to you two!
—⁣ I LOOOVE all things 𝐟𝐫𝐞𝐧𝐜𝐡 🥐,⁣ food,⁣ music,⁣ poetry,⁣ Amelie,⁣ and the way they speak of love...❤️⁣ ⁣ Here’s what happens when everything around you makes you believe you’re in a french countryside wedding - but still in Mexico → (swipe left)!
⁣ 〰️ This small oceanside pueblito in southern Mexico has such a UNIQUE vibe and magic character I don’t even need to tag it. ⁣🌴 You know what it’s called! —⁣ We call it PARADISE 🐚 and we can’t get enough!
— O̲A̲X̲A̲C̲A̲ de mis amores 🖤⁣ ⁣ Ahí te va Oaxaca, porque he vuelto a escribir...⁣ //⁣ De barro negro y blancos patios⁣ De dioses mixtecas y oro en los santos⁣ Espaldas prietas, mujeres y encantos⁣ Entre telares Oaxaca te fuiste cantando⁣ ⁣ De Fortín y danzas, y mezcal de antaño ⁣ Que no me falte el pueblo, el pan y el Istmo en los brazos⁣ ⁣ No me faltes Oaxaca, que me quedas lejos. Y me he dejado el huipil y el son en morral ajeno. No me faltes Oaxaca que ya mero llego, no me faltes, ya voy, bajando tu cerro... // 𝘤𝘰𝘱𝘺𝘳𝘪𝘨𝘩𝘵 ©𝘔𝘢𝘳𝘪𝘢𝘯𝘢 𝘚𝘢𝘳𝘰
«Na ku’un va’a kivi chun» 〰️ This was the third time we entered our hotel patio but the first I saw the sign. 🗿 I was about to google it, but Oaxaca’s thick many hundred year walls reminded me wifi is not the one to reach when in doubt. I looked around for someone to ask, and a man cleared my mind as he smiled and shared «Na ku’un va’a kivi chun» meant “have a very productive day” in mixteco. — I smiled back and thanked the man, because his words couldn’t have been more on point. 💭 As the man left, Gaby and I poured ourselves a cold icy glass of agua de tamarindo and decided to rest a bit in the patio equipales before heading out to our last dinner in the city. 🍃 We talked about life, family, work and the whole trip. 🎞 And we then scrolled though our oversaturated camera roll from our trip. Still couldn’t believing how much we got to experience between traveling, working and shooting a gorgeous wedding. — Our 5 day trip stretched to the max by touring 🗺 Monte Albán and Mitla, revisiting the always mystical 🌵 Ethnobotanical Gardens, hiking the 🥾 275 steps down to Hierve el Agua petrified waterfalls, eating at El Mercado 🌮and going into every single store, shop or puesto we came across. . We hotel toured (I loooove going into colonial hotels just for the pleasure if it) and church ceiling gazed. We visited Teotitlán del Valle and learned the magic and color of prehispanic tradition in the zapotec artisan rug making. And we accomplished a must by walking next to el Árbol del Tule (first photo shown) which, fact: has the stoutest trunk of any tree in the world. 〰️ We did so many things and all of them made so happy, that I would add a word to the mixteco saying: Have a very productive and happy day... because in Oaxaca you can’t have one without the other! ♡
— ☾ 𝘔𝘐𝘋𝘚𝘜𝘔𝘔𝘌𝘙’𝘚 𝘋𝘈𝘠𝘋𝘙𝘌𝘈𝘔 You know how people somehow remind you of something? In my case they sometimes remind me of songs, of cities, of sounds, book characters and even movies. I believe there are certain personalities that particularly relate to life, and if they were to relate to nature they could be a season on their own. 〰️ Simple enough, my dad is autumn 🍂 , strong, wise, protective, peaceful and trustworthy. And I could go on and on about people I know, and a month I’d name them after, or a season, or a day. There are those who are 🧘🏻‍♂️Sundays, or those who are🎢May’s, and others which Winter 🧣 🎼 is a season that fits them really well. 〰️ Ana Sofía was Summer. ☀️ The day I met her, and even more when she walked down the aisle. Lively, energetic and warm, she loved Enrique just like June loves July. I can say so many things about their wedding, even more than it happened on winter time, but this girl made it be summer, so summer it is now that we’re in July! ♥
Have you heard?! San Miguel de Allende just won #1 City in Mexico and #2 City in the world by Travel & Leisure 🇲🇽 💥✨! SWIPE LEFT FOR MORE! —— So what’s the deal with this small town and why are people falling in love with it? ⬇️ ◖ 500-year-old façades. Beautifully carved doors. Vibrant alleys. Rich history. Lush gardens. Amazing food. A unique art community. And weddings. Like in no other place.😍 〰️ San Miguel has it all! If you’ve been here you know it, and if not, what are you waiting for? ❤️❤️❤️
Magic carpets + magic lovers 🌙
🛸 hey July. There you are. I think I should write you a love letter. You’ve been constant and abiding for as long as I can remember. Always sunnier than June and wilder than August... — 🚲 You are bike rides and scraped knees while back and forth to our forever neighbors house in humid Texas. 〰️ You are 🍦dripping ice cones we bought and shared. 〰️ You are my 👴🏻 grandpa peacefully watching the resaca from his garden chair, because only if you’re a texan you’ll understand what a resaca is. And how a big white house next to one of the 🌾 Valley’s secret oxbow lakes makes you a proud old man. 〰️ You are 3 movies a week 🎥 during summer. You are popcorn 🍿 and pickles before going in. 🏊🏻‍♀️ A pool with a giant inflatable crocodile🐊 and all of my cousins, and afternoons at a country club 🎻 too boring for kids. 〰️ You are 🍗 Chick-fil-A and a large Dr. Pepper, and visits to Waldenbooks and a mall carrousel. 🍡 You are rainbow sherbet, messy braids and mosquitoes, and summer camp right across our street. 〰️ July, yes you’re the 4th, but also much more to me. You are also summer and perfect. And so many stories and cities that one letter won’t make the cut ❤️. — You should write down your own summer memories, they say it’s good luck to bring back goodness for it will bring back more 🖤
. Here’s to 📲 phone detox: -Eating lunch without scrolling down. -Having a conversation without a buzz. -Watching 10 second sunsets without your phone’s high speed burst shooting. -Describing a city with words, not necessarily 3000 photos. -Seeing kids grow through your eyes, not screens. -Letting your hands de-tingle from phone attachment. —— 〰️ To enjoying realness because it’s real and yours. ⚡️ 〰️ We all know technology is amazing and I love the idea of immediate connection. 💻 But sometimes, more than we admit, we need to turn the data off, even if it’s just for a bit 😉❤️! Enjoy your summer vacations everyone!
