Not Your Tigerlily: Tribal Editorial

To pay tribute to my Native heritage, I did an editorial shoot with photographer RicZee, a new fave collaborator, out in Cherokee Country. The weather was not the most cooperative with wind gusts upwards 31 mph (that wreaked 'un po havoc on my feathered mohawk I tell ya)....but with a little perseverance, prevail we did! Check out the results including a candid.

Spring has FINALLY arrived!

And with that, new images. I hope you like because after almost catching pneumonia yet again freezing in the damp, blustery hurricane winds (there for the sake of art go I), I'm now SO ready for Summer! 

Be sure to check out more from the shoot up in my gallery soon.  

...XoXo

2015 Updates...

Hello everyone!

I hope you're all having a most wonderful New Year thus far! As you may know, it's been awhile since I've updated the blog. Please do forgive me for this. I've been juggling lots of projects and personal commitments since the start of a tremendously busy, yet terribly exciting New Year. Firstly, I'd like to share a few new photography works which can currently be seen in several of my online photography ports like 500px and FlicKr as well as a few select social media outlets like my new 10th Muse Photography Facebook page, and other sites. I've a couple new lenses I've been experimenting with like a Mad Hatter and they have afforded me several new very pleasing images which I'm happy to share. As I've been quite the diligent student, honing my craft fast and furious style, I can say with great enthusiasm they've allowed me to break through to a whole new level of professionalism. Alla fine!

Lastly, I've a new Editorial High Fashion photoshoot (plus a little BTS video) shot out in the desert that I'm extremely excited about. Details with images and video to follow soon so check by often!   

If you enjoy the new photos, you're more than welcome to pass them along with proper credit and/or links of course and add any of my social media pages to get the latest in your feed! ;) 

Big Hugs,
Tammy

10th Muse Photography

By now, it may come as no surprise to some of you that photography has been a life long love and passion of mine. What began in early 2006 as a cathartic outlet during my first journey's through Europe, quickly grew into an extension of artistic creativity. The birth of which I trace back to treks through the Germany countryside and my love of architecture and history. Little did I know then that those first few images would stay with me long after returning stateside and set the spark that fueled the desire to go further behind the lens. Though I had no formal training, other than being on the opposite side of the camera, and a couple classes back in college, I had the sense that I could create something that would stir emotion and hopefully, make others see beyond the surface. So armed with my first Canon, off I went snapping photographs every chance I was given. This ongoing love affair that has spawned 10th Muse Photography is what continues to keep me growing, learning, and energized as an artist today. Though my initial focus then was primarily travel and glamour, I am happy to say that seven years later my style has grown to include abstract, fine art, portraiture and so much more. For more of my works and photo galleries, please visit the links below. And by all means, please share if you've enjoyed and let me know what you think! I'd love to hear from you! 

Love & Light,
Tammy

Destination Italia: LA PIU’ BELLA CINQUE TERRE

Few places I have been in all my life conjure such magical memories as The Cinque Terre in Italy. So it came as no surprise to me when I recently read an online news article, citing a poll where Italy was voted the Top 2013 Vacation destination choice for Americans. Situated on the Italian Riviera, in the Liguria region of Italy, "The Five Lands" as it is otherwise known is to the west of the city of La Spezia and composed of five stunning cliff top villages hugging the coastline: Monterosso al Mare, Vernazza, Corniglia, Manarola, and Riomaggiore.  

Riomaggiore, Italy

The coastline and the surrounding hillsides are all part of the Cinque Terre National Park and is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. But the region offers up much more than just a great getaway vacation with sweeping panoramic vistas and pastel colored villas. Think of it like Positano before the Hollywood invasion. Here, one is easily transported back in time with picturesque rugged villages terraced into the mountainside, wharfs dotted with netted fishing boats and locals, connected by a series of trains, boats, and walking paths. Marking part of the area’s quaint charm is that with the exception of delivery vehicles and emergency responders, there are no cars allowed. Perfect for meandering by foot the narrow cobblestone streets which run in a labyrinth-like fashion through neighborhoods, under homes, around quaint shops, and restaurants which harmoniously co-exist next to centuries old chiesa and pasticcerie embellished with crystal chandeliers. A destination that attracts honeymooners & artists alike, food & wine enthusiasts, students on holiday & retirees, hikers, bikers, and nature lovers---those seeking a slower pace of life to rest & recharge away from the hustle & bustle of the big city & tourist-y meccas - The Five Lands certainly does not disappoint with it’s wide range of interests and activities for all ages.

Spaghetti alle Vongole

Beyond the usual seafood fair, the region offers an amazing and tantalizing array of Italian cuisine that will delight and discern even the most gourmet palate. The area is particularly known for pesto, focaccia, farinata and heavily planted with lemon trees, which the locals use to make a spectacular limoncello drink and a fantastic limone gelato which is often served up on a half lemon at local restaurants and eateries throughout the region. Connecting the five villages is a walking path called the Sentiero Azzurro, or the "Light Blue Trail”, with a section from Riomaggiore to Manarola that’s called, the Via dell’Amore, or the “Walk of Love”. This easy walking/hiking trail offers breathtaking postcard views running the entire coastline perfumed by wild roses, honeysuckle, and lavender leading off to secluded alcoves, rocky sunbathing spots, olive groves, and well-cultivated vineyards which produce two of the regions internationally and critically acclaimed wines - The eponymous Cinque Terre and the Sciachetrà, the latter of which unfortunately has a two year waitlist in the U.S. and which we highly recommend.

  

the glorious view from our room

Questo è il mio paradiso incantevole! The place where I am instantly transported back in time whenever I catch the scent of caprifoglio. Here is the very place where I fell madly in love with the most incredible man I've ever known, as he entwined our names onto a stoney wall by the sea. A place we both reminisce most often about and fantasize countless times returning and retiring to. Now, into the beginning of this blessed New Year 2013 (our 6^th together and 3^rd Wedding Anniversary), we hope to finish the journey this time as a family, with our soon-to-be-born baby son.
