Home Away from Home by Karen Pancho

This past weekend I took a little day trip upstate. A friend of mine, Jezza has been building his dream home and in the process creating a space that could also be experienced by visitors. It’s a home away from home, a labor of love infused with a magical quality. Honestly, you’d have to be there and walk the grounds yourself.

A work in progress, it’s unavailable to the public at the moment. However its launch is in the horizon. Keep a look out on @creationxprogress or @pancho.vision for any updates. We are also working on a social profile for the property :)

Lost Shots of 2020 by Karen Pancho

Last year was such a weird time, we were all just trying to figure out how to stay connected while also maintaining a safe distance . By fall, things slowly started opening up with safety regulations and protocols. Here are a few shots from that evening with one of my good friends Jasmine. I don’t do a lot of night photography, but I believe this was off of Crosby Street in SOHO, thankfully there were some street lamps to aid in the low light conditions.

I’m diggin the dreamy softness in these.

Fall is Here by Karen Pancho

A usual practice for me, morning bike rides are one of my favorite things to do. While most are still wiping away the sand from their eyes and the streets are empty, I’m keeping my eyes open for something special. It’s also a form of meditation, and an opportunity to appreciate the abundance around us.

These shots are from a few weeks back. Gloomy as it was there’s something about fog and low light that is really inspiring. It pushes you to take a closer look.

Hawaii by Karen Pancho

After a year lock down and major shifts, I finally went on a vacation. It wasn't overly planned out and offered me an opportunity to really contemplate how I move through the world and how I can incorporate more of nature into my daily life.

I played around with color and texture, to align the images with the way I remember. The style incorporates a bit of a vintage vibe similar to when one-use cameras were a thing. *Note the last few photos were via iPhone.
