Maui

I’ve been daydreaming of sand between my toes, an ocean breeze, and not having any plans.

Photo LA & the Santa Monica Pier

We all do it.  You’re doing it right now!  Viewing photographs on your computer. If you ever get a chance to see photographic art in person, please do it.  It’s how it’s meant to be viewed:  printed, matted and framed. The computer just doesn’t give you the same experience. My friend Kristin and I drove up to Santa Monica to take in Photo LA in January.  It all started with my desire to see Susan Burnstine’s work. So surreal to see her images right before my eyes. It was an overwhelmingly pleasant surprise to see Vivian Maier’s work on display, too! The Expo introduced me to so many fantastic artists. Do yourself a favor and go to a show, visit the museum, buy a fine art photography book. You’ll see photographic art in a whole new light.

Afterwards, we went for a walk out to Santa Monica Pier.  I had a few shots left at the end of a roll.  Perfect way to finish it off!

Yeah. Southern California is this beautiful even in January.

Antonette & Chad: San Diego Harbor Excursion Wedding

They lived within a few blocks of each other and their paths had never crossed.  Then the opportunity presented itself and close in proximity became close in heart.  Well, with the help of a little homemade carrot cake. ; )

Toni and Chad, their family and friends, travelled to San Diego for an intimate wedding aboard the Renown. It was a relaxing day accompanied by a mild ocean breeze.  Absolute perfection!

Hollywood Night

Hollywood Blvd at night is circuit breaker overload – a cacophony of dizzying light and sound. I feel like a visitor at a big, colorful carnival whenever I’m immersed in it. Strangers swirling about me mixed in with taco stands, superheroes, and lots of “the unexpected”.  My friends and I were there a couple weeks before Halloween which, I’m sure, added to the randomness of it all.
