Hi friend!

I’m so glad you’re here. My name is Skylar (Sky or Skylar Bree works, too!) and I am the creative behind Something From My Shelf . As a lifelong reader and believer in fairytales, I am passionate about sharing my life and authoring my own happily ever after.

My goal is to share something from my each of my personal shelves—from what I’m currently reading to my latest style finds to getting personal with Mid-Week Messages and sharing my real life behind the scenes.

Together, I hope we can build a community of individuals who are all enthusiastic about reading, fashion, lifestyle and chasing their dreams.

Want to chat with me? Feel free to leave a comment on any post or stop by my Instagram: @somethingfrommyshelf

For Business Inquiries, you can reach me at: smfs.skylar@gmail.com

Thank you for taking some time out of your day to spend it here with me!

Love, Skylar Bree

You never know what you’ll find on the streets. And if you happen to be a photographer working in New York, that’s doubly true. I’ve had the good fortune to shoot all over the world, and when I come back to New York, I’m always reminded of why I started my career here.

The New York street scene is, for better or for worse, the street scene. It’s the one that is the most iconoclastic, and because of the backdrop of New York, it’s the one that I think people from just about anywhere imagine when they think of the idea of a street scene—whatever a “street scene” happens to be.

I created this album to showcase some of my favorite street scenes that I’ve captured in New York. This is nothing that I’ve done on contract or in my studio, just real life moments captured by me with my Mark III when I had some time to kick it around the city. I hope you like what you see. I did.
