My dad used to have a rad red beard back in the day. So I had the idea to capture some of my guy friends having their best beard moments.

Beards
This project is dedicated to beards: the essence of man.

Beard Push-ups
It has been scientifically proven that a bearded-man can do on average five times as many push ups as a beardless-man.
Jay-Bird Fake-Beard*
My friend Jay wanted to be a part of the photo project, but he is in California, and doesn't actually have a beard. Sometimes fake beards appear when you go out into the forest.

Beard from the Bay
Kyle sports some wild mountain blackberry ice cream in his beard on a warm and sunny day.
Glasses in Beard
Not only asthetically pleasing, beards are very practical and a useful place for storing things. Abe has one of my fav beards of all time.
Beauty
My grandma, Marjorie Lee Cooney, is one of the most important women in my life. She lives her life with so much joy and energy. These photos are from a Thai food outing with the ladies of the family. Don't dare to ask her age, she'd never tell you and you would never guess.
My grandma has always said to me, "Margi, if I were as beautiful as you, I would dance on the moon."
"Abuelita" I call her, is originally from New Mexico. Turquoise jewelry has been the staple Christmas gift since my cousin Katy and I were 3-years-old.
"Grandma, you're like a fine wine, you only get better with age." Margi

Morocco
Eid-Al-Fitr is the large muslim celebration that ends the month of fasting known as Ramadan. I was studying abroad in Seville, Spain and decided to take a bus, ferrie, train, and taxi to get to celebrate in Fez, Morocco for the weekend. I met some of the nicest people in my life on that trip to Morocco. These photos capture some of the beauty of this culture and a time of celebration. I had a hard time choosing, so here is a bunch of them.

Heart Friends
Hannah Jo Harrod. Terah Lynae Laack. Rachel Marie Giffey-Brohaugh. Margi Marie Felix.
Heart friends.
There are times in our lives where we find ourselves surrounded by other people who not only know our hearts, but they adore them, and share some of the most important parts. I don't think I would call those best friends. They are not, per se, "better" than anyone else. There isn't really any comparison. They're just heart friends.
This project is a time capsule of beautiful friendships. The photo shoot was done at Chapters, our favorite coffee shop, that we frequent together every Friday morning at 6 am for "Tradish". Apart from that we either are employed there, or visit Tuesday/Thursday before class, or have Saturday morning mama dates. We love Chapters. This project aims to capture the beauty of this moment in our friendships. Right now is probably the most we'll ever have in common. Although it is the differences that make these friendships so beautiful, I wanted to emphasize the small everyday things we get to enjoy during this season.
Drinking coffee is a fav group past time. Not only pleasing to the taste buds, coffee accompanies well any type of story or any length of conversation.
Friendship rings were bought before we were all separated to Asia, Europe, Africa, and North America for eight months. Bringing them back together has been amazing.
Converse of "cons", another common bond of friendship. A snapshot of unity.

San Fran
MLK weekend in San Francisco, California. A project originally intended to capture the people and culture of this great place by the bay, but was redirected as the beauty of the city itself caught my eye. Good city shots were taken and beautiful memories were made. An amazing weekend.
Blue skies by the Bay. Moon shot taken from Ghiradelli Square.
Evening San Fran Shot from the top of Lombard Street, America's crookedest street, overlooking the city, Coit Tower, and the Bay bridge.
Evening traffic at the top of Lombard Street looking towards Golden Gate Park.
Bay Bridge at night from the 12th floor of the Hyatt Hotel, at a yoga convention. Tight cheetah print yoga pants and men in tank tops.
Gotta love San Francisco.
