Patrol, Minneapolis
The moment before I got in a car with these men I very quickly rethought all of my life choices. There were so many steps along the way wherein someone could have, should have, said “No, Heather, this is a terrible idea.” Real Life Superheroes was/is a story I wanted […]
Galactic Pizza
Here’s a small taste of the pizza place where delivery drivers dress as superheroes. And in all sincerity, the pizza’s pretty good.

Pink Unicorn: II
I won’t show you the Beard & Mustache Competition, not just yet. But I will show you these gems from my evening with Josh the pink unicorn. Â
Pink Unicorn
Had my final shoot with Josh today before the competition. While many competitors dress in 19th-20th century outfits historically fitting their facial hair, this mustachioed man is going as a pink unicorn.
A Natural Mustache
Last year Josh won 2nd place in the Natural Mustache category of the Ohio Beard & Mustache Competition. This year, the odds are in his favor to win 1st. This story is for everyone who knows and loves facial hair, or at least my appreciation for a well-groomed man. This, […]
