The strange and the good things
The very same day I started my new job, I also received my MBA yearbook in the mail and was in tears looking through the sweet notes and nice memories. It felt right to look back at my last semester of my MBA holistically.
5 Years & Now
Hello!
What a strange time to be making an appearance I guess, over a year later. I set this blog aside as I focused on grad school and other things that needed to take priority in my life. Since I graduated with my MBA in April, I’ve had an unanticipated amount of time to reflect – not only on this blog, but also just going through past photos and memories. What a beautiful thing it is to remember…

Tried + True
The things I’ve used, loved, and would buy again — from mom life to travel and everything in between.
Hi, I’m Maddie –
lifelong memory-keeper, professional over-thinker of how to hold onto the good stuff, and a South Bay local sharing what makes everyday life a little more memorable.
From yearbook layouts to travel blogs to toddler photo books, I’ve always loved documenting things — not just to look back, but to know they’re there.
This space is for both of us: to slow down, be present, and still remember it later. Because the little things don’t last forever, but they’re worth saving.
During my daughter’s first two years I photographed everything. (Live mode forever.) After she turned two, something shifted. I wanted less proof of the moment and more presence in it.
