coffee, kitchens, and commercial work: three of my favorite things / hartford, ct

January 14, 2019

I’ve been working hard on a few things over here this winter. One of those things has been focusing more on my commercial work, another has been finishing our kitchen renovation, and all of it has been fueled by coffee.

So when Tatia & I decided to do our Alpha Brew Coffee shoot in my very own kitchen, you can imagine I was not only pumped to work with this beautiful coffee queen, but Greg & I got RIGHT to work on the subway tile backsplash we’ve been putting off for months.

Let me just say: I. Am. Stoked.

So here are three of my favorite things, all wrapped up into one little post. Well, technically four, if you count favorite people as well.
