Bouchon Bakery or Bread Heaven

(THE Bouchon Bakery in Yountville, CA) One more confession before I turn you free to the weekend: Bread. I love it. I said it! You heard it! I mean it! Here’s to flaky buttery morsels of heaven…and to the weekend (being sick makes you think the week will never end). I’m shooting a beautiful wedding...

Ad Hoc

We started off our anniversary weekend in Napa by eating our first night at Ad Hoc. It turned out to be one of the most delicious meals I have ever eaten (I’m 31. I’ve eaten a lot of meals). Everything was perfectly seasoned, the meal was so well balanced with sweet, salty, sour…the textures, the...

Bouchon Bakery

Sometimes I really REALLY need brioche bread from Bouchon Bakery. Lots of food photos and Thomas Keller delights hailing from Napa tomorrow on the blog. Come hungry.

The Gibbs Family

Taking photographs of a 2yr old and 8month old is one of the most exhausting and rewarding experiences. If you’ve photographed a 2yr old, you know what I’m talking about. The energy level of both the kids and parents astounds me. It’s the magic of young families.

Color Me Katie

I am a little bit in love with her. This video made me so happy and inspired. I love making connections with strangers..helping you realize you aren’t strangers at all. I think Katie has inspired me to continue my “strangers on airplanes” portraits (seen here and here). These are the types of interactions with photography...

Paris

All taken with my 330 land camera on 690 iso 100 polaroid film. I shot right around 100 instant images while across the sea. It was fun. It feels good to hold prints seconds after they’re taken.

Volcanos & Stuff

Yesterday we flew from Amsterdam to LA right over Iceland. Part of me wondered if that was the best idea, but KLM wasn’t sweating it so neither was I. Kind of bugged we were able to fly home on our original flight. Being stranded in Europe sounded pretty dramatic and part of me really wanted...

Airstream Heaven

While in SLO we spent an hour or so pretending like we owned one of these beauties. There is a lot to see in Airstream trailers…sometimes too much.

San Luis Opisbo is Green

All that green just makes me want to take photographs. Sometimes the Mr. says “no more please”….but if he complains too much I make him frolic in fields. Don’t mess with a photographer.

Hearst Castle- The Ultimate Indoor Pool

This photo doesn’t even come close to doing this pool justice. I think the floors were covered in gold…real gold. Wouldn’t it be a fun project to shoot all your favorite swimming pools? I might try. (Hearst Castle is near San Luis Opisbo)

Motion

We are off on our European adventure with a new friend…A Canon 310XL super 8 camera. Grant found this baby and we are excited to test our skills at movie making. I have pre- blogged and maybe if I’m lucky I’ll find time to share some stuff while we are on the road. xo.

Campbell

You know those times when you have to leave a shoot and you seriously consider kidnapping? I mean only one!…or two…OK…three at the most. Lucky for them I walked away empty handed…this time. Be careful if you ever invite me back. When we become parents, somebody please send duplicates of these kids. Campbell will be...
