A few years ago, the boundaries between my work and Maria’s were quite clear, she was an artist, I wrote and took pictures. These days, they are not so clear, and we have both benefited from that. Maria’s Iphone opened up a whole new range of visual artistry for her, and she is quite good at it.

The Monday morning videos she posts have been very popular, and shape the start of our work weeks. Maria wakes up eager to get out there, thinking of her video. When she has finished the video and the shores, she sits and reviews it carefully before posting.

It is my job to capture the important moments in our lives, and Maria studying her video before posting it is one of them. I am in awe of her many talents. (But I still have the bigger camera, at least for now.)
