The Renegade Craft Fair was the 1st annual taking place in Los Angeles. It has been in other cities in past years, and this year, is also taking place in San Francisco, Chicago and Brooklyn.

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!

Georgetown Fountain, Washington, D.C., USA

Unlike so many other fountains I’ve seen during wintertime, the Georgetown Fountain is actually on and flowing magnificently. The water even shoots up through frozen areas of the fountain and makes it that more interesting to look at. On a detour on the way to the movies, we ended up at this plaza, with shops […]

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 […]
