I've taken a couple of trips up to Seattle this summer, for a mix of work and play. Last month I worked on a shoot for Coastal Living with Aran, assisted by the lovely Jennifer Morris. We had a little play time with lovely blog friends Jenny, Stephanie, and Samantha too! We were shooting by the water in West Seattle. So many highlights. We stayed in a little beach abode in Alki Beach, ate Southern food at Sexton in Ballard, wandered the amazing gallery/shop, Totokaelo in Capital Hill and spent a sunny afternoon at Gas Works Park! Seattle in the summertime is a dream. I always took that area for granted growing up and I can't say how refreshing it is to be around so much water, the smell of seaweed, and seagulls again. Any favorite Seattle spots you'd like to share? Here are a few more of my favorites (Thanks to Jenny for showing us around!):
Elliott Bay Books ( Of course! They have an amazing selection of zines!)
Skillet (crazy for their bacon jam!)
Phone snaps by me.
Ballard is soooo cute!
