a beautiful mess.

Written By Nikki Mihalik

After spending an hour sketching ideas for a commemorative 9/11 post, I decided that this photo of the leftover mess of a portfolio shoot was more beautiful and more fitting than anything I could have made myself.

Thank you to every person (and every dog!) who has served our country. I am so grateful to live, work, and love here.
