bon bini aruba!

sweet escape.

aruba is fabulous. 

from the white-sand beaches with abundant + friendly wildlife to the bustling downtown with amazing restaurants and colorful action, it was a delightful way to spend a few days. after reveling in the hot sun and the cool caribbean, we rented a car to explore the “other” side of the island – amazed at its wild, rocky terrain and the deserted, almost wicked, wind-swept northern coast. 

enjoy!

destination relaxation.

as you may have noticed it’s been a very busy last couple of months at blonde photo and to celebrate my birthday (yay!) i’ve decided to run off to the caribbean for some much needed r&r — i simply can’t wait to explore the fabulous island of ARUBA! i’ll be back next week well rested, fantastically tan, and with some gorgeous photos…of course!

snow falling on the district.

a snow day in chinatown.

blondephoto-9539a

the district succumbed to stillness today under a few inches of snowfall. chinatown – or “times square” as we lovingly refer to it – was quieter than i’ve ever seen it this afternoon. honestly, it was surreal, and kind of nice. hello snowy march!
