Last night my husband and I got home to work to see our front door standing open. I knew, with the immediacy that you know terrible things, what had happened. I was right. We'd been robbed. Someone took a crowbar, pried the framing of our front door off, and ransacked our house. They couldn't have … Continue reading Invasion

Five of Coins
The Five of Coins is one of the few completely negative cards in the tarot, which made it interesting to shoot. While Stephanie and I sometimes differ on how to portray various cards, there is very little room for interpretive differences in the Five of Coins- it is just poverty, and destitution. We knew we … Continue reading Five of Coins

We hit upon the idea of accounting fairly early- it was something we had considered for the Two of … Continue reading Four of Coins

Three of Coins
The Three of Coins was a bit of an intellectual challenge for both Stephanie and me during the planning phase of the coins- it's traditionally a card of skilled labor, or career and profession. Stephanie's profession, though, involves the internet and computers, and we really struggled to come up with some way to convey that … Continue reading Three of Coins
