Latest Obsession: New Orleans
I’ve always been kind of amazed by New Orleans ever since I was a kid. It’s one of my favorite cities. It’s beautiful and rich with culture. It’s one of the few places I can go and feel like I really belong there. For about the last year and a half or so I have … Continue reading »
Photo Blog: Mom & Dad come to Memphis
My parents drove 400+ miles just to spend last weekend with me. It was so much fun and I wish they could have stayed longer. We ate at Bourbon Street Steakhouse & Grill (Number 2 on my 28-before-29 list!), walked around downtown Memphis, rode the riverfront loop trolley, ate at Soul Fish cafe, got cupcakes … Continue reading »

It was a long drive…
My sister-in-law Katee and I drove down to Sandestin, FL earlier this month. It was a long drive… and I, as usual, had some yarn handy… (and a cell phone that doesn’t take very good photos): Above: (Left):: Every time Katee and I have gone to a wedding or baby shower together the last three … Continue reading »
Echo Beach.
New series on kandicook.com: The Beach… shot with 35mm film and a modified holga (I think at least one roll was expired). I was so excited about these photos, I was very satisfied with how they turned out, especially the dreamlike colors and crunchy spots and scratches. Before I wound the film back into the … Continue reading »
