WASHINGTONIANS - There are three library levy measures on the ballot in next Tuesday’s statewide election to benefit @snoislelibraries , @seattlepubliclibrary , and @spokanecountylibrary. All are labeled as Prop 1 on their ballots, all fund core library operations, all are to renew or restore funding, and all need a simple majority to pass.

Libraries do a lot more than lend books. They offer free access to internet, computers, and wifi. They teach people how to use email, write resumes, and apply for jobs. They build community. As a mom, I regularly attended storytime with my kid, and we go every three weeks to re-up on books to meet summer reading goals. Did you know that our libraries offer help with homework, online tutoring for students, and adult literacy classes? Tax prep assistance, meeting rooms to reserve. All of these are free to us regardless of income, background, or immigration status. When funding is cut, branches close, have shorter hours, and fewer staff. The library that raised you can’t do the same for your kids.

Vote YES on Prop 1, and make sure your ballot is postmarked or dropped off by 8pm next Tuesday, 8/4.

Meanwhile, enjoy some photos I made for @snoislelibraries !

Portraits of the dynamos over at Interior Design Studio @charliehellstern including Chief Comfort Officer, Milo! On the site of one of their projects, Vitus’ Belltown HQ. Charlie teamed up with @madebyshore for a branding and website refresh last year. I first connected with Charlie in 2020 for portraits at Loom House on Bainbridge. My stylist @ryannbrady_hmu and I fell in love with her style, humor, and confidence, and it’s been a treat to continue to work together.

the hazards of rain

Makeup artist Erin Skipley blogged about our soggy Portland adventure we had during the Decemberists’ Hazards of Love promo shoot with Autumn de Wilde. I assisted, she make-upped, that lady Sarah Jurado served as Production Assistant and Shirley Kurata and the divine Ms. Rachel Demy were Wardrobe Stylist and Assistant Wardrobe Stylist respectively. Also helping out was Dianna Potter of Paper Tiger, who lucky for us just happened to be in town.

After the shoot we learned that Erin, Sarah, her husband Damien and I were stuck in PDX due to I-5 flooding. We shacked up at the Ace Hotel for the night hoping for respite & reopening the next day. No such luck. We were stuck. Erin flew home while (now LA based) photographer Annie Beedy was kind enough to open her home up to the rest of us for the evening. Annie’s house is a bit of an indie rock landmark, as Elliott Smith lived, wrote and recorded Roman Candle there. Seeing how Autumn recently released a book of her Elliott Smith photographs, I think this post has officially come full circle.

And if you haven’t had enough hyperlinks of ridiculously talented people to follow yet, here’s another. You might recognize the woman on the below left as the songstress from Michaela & Nabil’s wedding. Yup, Becky Stark sings on the new Decemberists’ album. Oh, the tangled webs!
