I am so excited to be working with the amazing Villaflor Photography in Nuremberg, Germany! Such a talented, beautiful, and amazing photographer, Mia has been an inspiration to rebuild my photography business here in Germany and I am kicking it off with a wonderful new Boudoir Session!

When it comes to choosing where to rest your head at night in a new strange city, there are a few places I look before choosing my accommodations.

Everyone has their own crutches, and anxiety is always a huge obstacle to overcome, but understanding your stresses and triggers can help you stay ahead of the attacks and stress-free all day long. Traveling and being an expat can be a huge stress too, so here is a cute infographic about what exactly is stress to help you out!

Whenever an opportunity to do a photo shoot comes along, I JUMP at the chance. I get even more excited when it’s in a cool new location, with beautiful new models, and on my terms. I can direct however I want, try new styles, and get as crazy and fun as I want. After a few debates with Ana (Not only one of my gorgeous models, but the inspiration for this fun shoot) over location, her magical Googling turned up an abandoned sauna in Nuremberg that could be rented for photo shoots. Location Acquired.

We are always looking for something to do on a Sunday, with all of the shops closed, my favorite pastime of spending money on clothes I don’t really need is out the window. Living in the heart of Bavaria has its advantages though (and benefits for my wallet of course). Drive an hour or two in any direction and you can reach a beautiful history drenched city or village with picturesque statues, medieval architecture, and mouthwatering German delicacies. One I recommend now that spring is finally upon us is Ansbach, a measly 45 minutes from Nuremberg.

So you are all ready to go, flights are booked, itinerary made, excitement levels are high! Do you know how you are going to get around? Unless you have family you will be visiting that can be your personal chauffeur for the trip, you will need to plan for travel time to, from, and in each city you want to visit. Now comes the difficult part: which do you choose?

There are so many amazing little towns and villages within only an hour or two drive from Nuremberg just not enough weekends to visit them! Are you looking for something to do with the family for a day but dont want to travel far? Dont go any farther than Bamberg!

Why stress about forgetting sunscreen when every supermarket has a bottle? Without my packing list though, I am pretty sure I would go crazy. No matter if I think I have it all, I must check and check again.

Who knew Easter would be such a big deal in Germany? Maybe it is because it really marks the end of the cold winter, and the beginning of a colorful spring. Or maybe it is because like more German Holidays, everyone gets a week off of school and in some cases work. No matter what it is, Easter is a big deal, and you need to know what you should do to celebrate!
