Connie & Mario’s Wedding, Holy Cross Church, Los Angeles, California, USA
My co-worker, Connie, and her fiance, Mario, got married this past Saturday. It was a beautiful wedding and I’m glad I got to capture the special day for them via photos! The ceremony took place at the Holy Cross Church in Los Angeles, followed by the reception in Pasadena. Congratulations to both of them! 🙂
Getty Villa, Pacific Palisades, California, USA
Along the Pacific Coast Highway, hugging the Pacific Ocean Coast, is the Getty Villa. It is an educational center and museum dedicated to the study of the arts and culture of the ancient Greece, Rome and Etruria. Walking through the grounds of the Villa is a mixture of outdoor architecture and indoor arts. This photo […]
Puppy, Nemo, Union City, California, USA
When my mom first got our puppy, Nemo, last year, this is one of the first photos I got of him in our front yard. He’s a white Bichon Frise with light brown spots. Naming him was a joint brainstorming effort between my brother and I. He is now a lot bigger (comparatively), and still […]
Birds Flying High, Carlsbad, California, USA
Flying high above the ocean, I was able to get a photo of this bird with its wings spread gracefully against the blue sky. Around this stop on the the way to the Carlsbad Flower Fields, there were plenty of birds circling around and landing on the ground, exploring the area.
Waves coming to Shore, Laguna Beach, California, USA
Along the Laguna Beach coastline, rocks are scattered along the sand and each wave brings water crashing onto the rocks. It was an overcast day, but the area was still great for relaxing and enjoying the view!
Making S’Mores over an Open Fire (Coals), Dockweiler Beach, California, USA
There were no more available pits at the beach so what else were we to use?! The coals for the grill were warm and glowing and provided the necessary heat to toast our marshmallows. Add some chocolate pieces and sandwich it between two graham crackers and there you go! S’mores 🙂
Tomatoes, Santa Monica Farmer’s Market, Santa Monica, California, USA
Even though I don’t like eating vegetables, it doesn’t mean I can’t enjoy photographing them! Early on a Saturday morning at the Santa Monica Farmer’s Market on the Third Street Promenade, each booth had its own collection of fresh produce and flowers, along with other items like cheeses, pistachios, seafood and bread. These were some […]
"The Choices in your Hands", Cool Globes Exhibition, Los Angeles, California, USA
The choice is in your hands to fight global warming. This is the message being portrayed by artist, Paula Clayton, on the spherical canvas she had to work with. The Cool Globes Exhibition travels throughout the US in order to spread the word about ways to make a change. In LA, there are over 50 […]
Interior Design at Anthropologie, Santa Monica, California, USA
Usually when you step into the Anthropologie store on 3rd Street Promenade, the goal is to look for the perfect dress or blouse or cute accessory. Sure, I did that too, but after not finding anything (surprisingly), I started realizing my surroundings and discovered the beauty and true creativity of the interior design of the […]
Reflections of the Palm Trees, San Pedro, California, USA
On our quest to find the perfect spot to photograph the Vincent Thomas Bridge in San Pedro, we stumbled upon this area along the water just overlooking the bridge. There was a pool of water that wonderfully captured reflections of the lights and the palm trees along the water. Along with the water show just […]
