EVENTS

Hey all! First off, here's a cutesy winter photo taken of me on film by my girlie @kdoubleii in front of the beloved @mtroyalsoaps shop in Remington.

I wanted to share that I participated in a Slow Talk @slowtalkpbc session a few weeks ago (I shared a few posts about it here.)

I really like what this company is up to. Essentially, Slow Talk is attempting to do the impossible: to fix our broken healthcare system from the inside out through thoughtful dialogue.

One of Slow Talk's major undertakings is addressing critical healthcare system problems right here in Maryland. I joined one of the local small group dialogue sessions with a group of randomized participants.

Folks from both within the healthcare system (local nurses, doctors, administrators) and non-medical fields (everyday patients) discussed pointed questions about healthcare in Maryland.

One of the posed questions was:

"If you could wave a magic wand, how would you make healthcare more human?"

What I shared is simple but true, and I know a lot of us feel this way. Here's what I said:

“I want to be seen as a whole person. I often will come into a doctor’s office, and while I know people aren’t studying me all day before my visit, I do feel like I’m just a number or a person on a list.”

I heard comments like this from others on the call and heard astounding things from both non-medical field Baltimoreans plus practitioners and administrators.

For instance, one caller talked poignantly about how healthcare is focused on SICK care instead of HEALTH care, i.e., addressing symptoms and abandoning preventative care. Another Baltimore local talked about the lack of attention on elderly and pre-natal care.

These are simple enough problems to fix. Slow Talk helps gather people together to change the status quo.

Ok this was a fall session from this past October but it looks like spring and I wanted to show off my friends the Chakis.

My Spring Family Mini Shoots are live and ready to book...🌟

Only $99 per family for a 10 min session

Because this has been a LONG winter in every sense I'm offering this really big discount on spring sessions 1) because I want to give everyone a break and 2) because I want to meet new families and fill all my spots :)

So if you're interested in a session I'd say April is the time to book with me (but I'm biased of course).

All booking links are in my bio...

Saturday, April 4, 2026  
(Note: this is the Saturday during Passover and the day before Easter)

Saturday, April 25, 2026*

Patterson Park, Boat Lake (aka the duck pond) across the street from Bmore Licks (go there after!)

*a booking link for April 25 is forthcoming. Let me know if you want me to hold a spot for you and I’ll alert you when the booking link goes live to fully book and confirm your session

More info:
Each session is just 10 minutes but I do a LOT of quick documentary/lifestyle work in those few minutes together (that's the time it took for me to make the shots seen here with this darling family, for instance).

I asked this question, posed by Slow Talk @slowtalkpbc to my lifelong friends Eric and Maria: "If you could wave a magic wand, what would a more human experience of healthcare look like?" Both as former workers in the healthcare industry I knew they'd have a lot to see. Here are their (shortened but still pointed and astute) answers to the wand question:

From Eric:
"Pointing to one fundamental improvement only, in my opinion, there needs to be a commitment toward revising our current multi payer system to provide more universal access, a Healthcare for All model.

Many countries thought of as leaders provide this for their citizens, but here the insurance provider as a profit center remains paramount. It boils down to priorities. As a nation, we have to decide what really is of the most fundamental importance.
It is said that Healthcare spending in the USA dwarfs that of most countries, but our outcomes are often far worse. One wonders if there is an opportunity to improve the training model in medical schools? Likely the answer will come from all of the above areas."

From Maria:

"Working for 7 CEOs of a downtown academic medical center, I actually did wish for a magic wand many times during my 27-year career in Baltimore. Mostly, I wished for better communication between the clinical staff - amongst each other and also with the people who came to us for care. I wished for patient navigators to help people with challenges to receiving care, transportation, parking, reaching a live person on the phone, helping to breakdown complicated test instructions for all people, including those with language or cognitive challenges. Even though I have retired from my executive assistant role, I always felt that there are too many layers of personnel between the decision-makers and the bedside caregivers, those that are actually providing hands-on care."

Note: I had a more recent picture of Eric and Maria but I remembered I did a photoshoot for them during the pandemic. Here they are, briefly unmasked, in their driveway alongside their truck on June 15th, 2020...❤️😷

I asked Cassie O'Malley @cedar_coaching a question posed by Slow Talk @slowtalkpbc: "If you could wave a magic wand, what would a more human experience of healthcare look like?" (I'll tell you about Slow Talk below Cassie's answer...)

"Find the stories. Healthcare is a collection of stories. The patients, the family members, the clinicians, the environmental services individuals, the greeters at the front door. Stories upon stories that intersect at unexpected moments. Stories that have a bidirectional impact, whether realized or not. When we know the stories, when we understand the stories, the dis-ease and the subsequent restoration of health take shape differently. The stories show us we aren't healing symptoms from a textbook, but rather encountering an entire life before and beyond that moment. The stories tell us that healing may be happening for the clinician just as much as it is for the patient; that health restoration is a collective focus rather than an individual, singular focus. The stories, when we listen, can transmute care, reminding us that healthcare is, in its nature, a sacred exploration of the human experience."
- Cassie O'Malley @cedar_coaching, Baltimore, MD

I'm helping to spread the word about a startup called Slow Talk @slowtalkpbc, whose founder, Lukas Welch, is building a more deliberate way for people to share their thoughts and opinions and actually get listened to.

Slow Talk started in healthcare because it's a field that touches us all and it’s in crisis. The platform, which asks the patients, nurses and healthcare leaders, to participate in small 1-hour conversations via an app. I'll be participating in Wednesday's cohort to see what it's like. You can join through a unique link if you're interested (link in bio) ✨

Thank you to Cassie @cedar_coaching for her wise and brilliant contribution. Please check out her practice.

The Royal Blue @theroyalbluebar is looking so good and wild. Love the leopard theme in the back room. Sorry for sneaking around and taking pictures. I was tempted to go out on the dance floor but I didn't - i knew I'd get called out for that. It's a cocktail bar with a classic diner look and it's also well respected restaurant and a dance club (there's a disco ball glittering in the back). Highly recommend going by on a spring day (like whatever Tuesday was for us here in Baltimore) and enjoy the sun coming through the ice cube glass.

This Baltimore snow phenomenon is new to me but i saw it last thursday by old towne mall: a snow mountain covered with dirt and debris but it looks like a demolition mound. These these two kids frolicking on it made it look whimsical and dystopian. This ice won't melt til mid-May so you can see it too.

From @wbaltv11 : "An urban mountain of icy snow looks more like a demolition site at the Old Town Mall parking lot. Its slopes, covered in dirt and debris, tower over street lights.
It's become one of three dumping grounds for stubborn snow over the last month, alongside Pimlico Racetrack grounds and M&T Bank Stadium."

Also: seagulls.

"MICA Fête of Lights" celebrating 200 Years for BmoreArt @bmoreart @marylandinstitutecollegeofart 02.21.2026

Read (or listen to!) the story written by the always astute and discerning Cara Ober @caraober at bmoreart.com (link in bio). Here's a glimpse:

"The modern Fête bridges MICA's 200-year history with contemporary artistic practice, and is a revival of events that originated in the late 1920s...

One main reason that Baltimore is a “City of Artists,” host to a vast cultural ecosystem that is high achieving, exponentially diverse, and globally relevant is the presence of the Maryland Institute College of Art (MICA). Not only is MICA a draw for talented young artists across the globe, its the center of gravity for a network of faculty, staff, collaborators, fans, friends, patrons, and alumni – like Amy Sherald, Joyce J. Scott, Abbi Jacobson, Kamrooz Aram, Lou Fratino, Jeff Koons, Gaia, Morris Louis, and Betty Cooke. There are so many MICA alums in Baltimore, so many of us, who came to Baltimore to study but ended up putting down roots due to love, employment, and professional opportunities, many of our own making...."

Denise @sharkythekid said a heartbreaking goodbye to Scooby when he crossed the rainbow bridge on 2.14.26. He was her special boy and always will be.

Born in Grenada and flown to his forever home in the US on Denise's sun-soaked lap, Scooby was a naturally sweet pup. An island boy at heart, he had a predilection for curling up on the porch in the sun and taking long naps in laps.

When he was a little one he had dark brown snout and throughout his life he was gentle taking treats from upturned palms.

While Denise and Angelika were on vacation, Scooby chose them to be his mommies. He trotted up to their beach side cottage and called it home. He knew right away they were dog lovers. I think dogs, just like little toddlers, know who is safe, playful and full of love the moment they meet them.

I got to photograph Scooby on one of his last days earth-side. He was so gentle and loved it when I scritched his little noggin. His big ears pointed straight up when he heard the neighbor dogs bark. It was my pleasure to have a sunny snow covered afternoon with him.

Denise just lost her other beloved dog just a few weeks earlier. The silence in their house and the little reminders of their pups (bowls, toys, leashes, balls long ago rolled under couches) must be unbearable.

Please know how much we all feel for you, especially all the "dog people" reading this. We get it. We get what it means to welcome a dog into our lives and what the particular torment when we have to let them go. They reach you on a nervous system level. They teach us how to love better and that love radiates through us.

This profound relationship is made stronger because of the short but momentous time we have with them. We love you and we miss you, Scoobs.

I know we're sick of snow but I just got my half-frame Ektar N35 @kodakektar (disposal camera style) b/w film back from two weeks ago and this is it. Note: there's no settings I can change for taking the picture in-camera. Flash or no flash are my options. So don't judge lol. The white chair disappears in the 4th slide...And doesn't the first one look like it was taken in 1953? I love that timeless feel..

I know we're sick of snow but I just got my half-frame Ektar N35 @kodakektar (disposal camera style) b/w film back from two weeks ago and this is it. Note: there's no settings I can change for taking the picture in-camera. Flash or no flash are my options. So don't judge lol.

More photos of the lovely Filipino woman students and I met this morning during the Towson High School ICE protest walkout march.

She jogged out of her house waving a Filipino flag. She has lived here in Towson since the 1970s and graduated from Towson High.

When these kids saw her crying they immediately enveloped her in a hug. No questions asked. She is suffering from a fresh personal loss in her family and is also feeling the threat of ICE around her.

The mix of personal grief and public pride in the youth created a particularly poignant moment during the march.

(I shared my IG with her so she can message me so I can either tag her or leave her be...but if you're reading this please know we <3 you!)

Towson High School ICE Protest walkout today! I'm so proud of these students.

Schools across Baltimore County protested against ICE today.

The beautiful Filipino woman we met jogged out of her house waving a Philippines flag. She graduated from Towson High in the 1970s. While cheering with the students, she also shared some personal news about a profound loss in her family...students immediately consoled her by enveloping her in a hug. (You can hear her full story in my reel, posted previously, if you want to skip to the last few mins of that to hear her story).

Congrats to @towsoncivicaction for organizing such a peaceful and enthusiastic walkout even with tons of opposition from parents and local officials.

These kids know their rights and know how to fight for human rights. The signs says it best: "It's not political... this is about human rights." But rt it's politics too.

Cassie, with @cedar_coaching, in her element...and helping others shift into theirs, December 21 2025.

From Cassie:

“I had this idea for women. For women to see themselves through the clearest lens. The lens that showed their strength, their softness and most importantly, the lens that let them see the person who is deep inside. Buried under the daily routines, the working, caretaking. The person who is meant to be in this world. Mollye’s ever magical artistry was the perfect lens for the metaphorical.”

I came across this old photo and legit thought it was a stock photo that had slipped into my archives. But then I rembered: whose hands these are, the room around these hands, the pre-party nerves this person had, the smell of the place, the feel of the wood, the sound of clicking the shutter.

Had I not taken the photo I wouldn’t have remembered her hands or the emotion in them. But now I see it again.

It’s just a simple photo but I still like as part of a series.

To me it shows a pair of worried hands or at least hada- and the person belonging to them- in a state of unease. I could be wrong but at least a string of anxiety runs through this portrait.

And if you know me well you likely know I love thumbs - I think they’re particularly interesting and everyone’s thumb is so individual. I’ve written an entire essay about them in fact.

But anyway… I came across this photo playing Karim’s @karim.shehadeh new art challenge game “prompts” that he just launched on create.spot (link in bio) last week. Each week you get a new set of 3 words and you make art of whatever kind to embody/interpret/cut into/translate those words.

I’d actually move this picture to one of this week’s words: “indefinite.” Endless worry, concern, uncertainty expressed in one square. I love how our bodies quickly but often subtly externalize our internal feelings and states of mind, especially the hands.

Actually I’m going to try to draw this pair of hands and thumbs…and submit it for this week’s prompts. I look forward to failing and trying again.
