Here are some photos I took while in Solvang, CA about a week ago. I wanted to see the sunrise but it turned out to be a gloomy morning… Although I didn’t get the sunrise shots that I wanted, I was able to get something better… Every time I see a flock of birds or...

Summer 2010. Part III
A few weeks ago I decided that I would attempt to complete the P90X workout program. Ninety days of intense exercise. The word attempt is key here. I quickly learned that besides helping you get super fit, such program is designed to cause pain and suffering. But in a good way because the end result...
Summer 2010. Part II
It goes a little something like this….symptoms of a meltdown in the works…I sleep a maximum of four hours every night. Engage in frequent date nights with Ben & Jerry’s. I start breaking out. Laundry piles up. I hide my running shoes. I stop taking pictures. I don’t ask for help. I sit at my...
SUMMER 2010. Part I
Just some random thoughts before I get to the Part I of these photos… -I’ve been listening to Spanish music(rock en espanol) on Pandora for nearly two days now and all I have to say is WOW. So much passion. I’m in love. -I started a pretty intense workout program a couple of months ago...
Bride Tips: Wedding Blogs
While rummaging through a few drawers looking for something completely different, I came across one of our wedding invitations from almost four years ago. I was tempted to bust out our wedding album and video and gush about all things weddings with anyone who would listen. Unfortunately Lili and Lola were not having it, so...
Girlie Sky.
I found these photos during my attempt to organize the unbelievable amount of personal pictures in my computer, so I decided to forget about the organizing and write down a few thoughts that came to mind while looking at these… -Passion. Intensity. Drama. -I wish I could pull off the color pink as well as...
Bad Hair Days
I chopped off more than twelve inches of my hair about two years ago. Just because. I was also going to dye it jet black but I chickened out. And after a few months of getting it cut, I went back to get it cut even shorter. Yes, I know. Sometimes I just can’t contain...
Yosemite Getaway, Part II
There was war this morning between my warm sheets and my new morning running routine. It almost didn’t happen. I lay in bed trying to convince myself that sleeping in for fifteen more minutes would be ok… But you always do that and then fifteen minutes turns into an hour. Yeah but it’s so cold....
Yosemite Getaway, Part I
Barking dogs, crying children, dirty air, rude people, drama, car troubles, feeling crappy, house cleaning, schedules, work, more rude people, bills, traffic…sometimes it’s nice to get away from it all and hit an imaginary reset button. So when Eddie and I planned taking my parents to a four day getaway to Yosemite National Park for...
San Diego Photog Shootout, Ramona Ranch
Reason #624 that I’m incredibly happy to be a portrait/wedding photographer….Photog Shootouts! These workshops and small GTG for portrait and wedding photographers are a perfect way to build a portfolio, connect with other photographers and LEARN, not just about photography, but yourself. Eddie and I were able to attend our second San Diego shootout last...
