My favorite souvenir 🥹

I know travel will eventually become totally digital and automated but I’ll forever mourn the passport stamps we’ll never get to collect.

There’s something really special about coming home with another country stamped in your passport. The faded ink, some random border agents handwriting, the stamps you can hardly read.

I’ve brought home a lottt of souvenirs but passport stamps are always my favorite ones. Probably because my passport is the #1 book that changed my life

Anyway, can we please keep passport stamps forever? 😭

The last one gets me every time.

I’ve spent a lot of years chasing the best colors around Upstate NY and these photos of the Adirondack Mountains are some of my favorites 🍂

A cutie lil girls weekend in the Catskills, but make it luxe✨

We spent the weekend at Catskills Luxe Le View Chalet, tucked into the Catskill Mountains and surrounded by some of my favorite little mountain towns and places to explore in Upstate NY

One of my favorite things about photographing stays like this is capturing not just what a place looks like, but what it actually feels like to spend a weekend there.

Save this for your next Catskills girls’ weekend ✨

This is one of my most requested itinerary for fall in the northeast!

These are the best routes through New York and New England to chase the best fall colors if you want to see as much as possible in a short amount of time.

Foliage also HIGHLY depends on the weather, so check foliage trackers for the most current date foliage updates and try to stay flexible!

Say ‘Foliage’ and I’ll DM you a list of the trackers that I use and my favorite stays along these routes.
