Having fun in the darkwasn't hard when I had a model like Seth with his dope ass coat (Made by yours truly)  52 Shoot Challenge Continues on a Steady StreakI was doing pretty good staying on track with doing one a week, & for my 7th photoshoot I had a plan. When Seth and I were shooting at the beginning of the year for 1/52, I picked him up at his home and there I immediately noticed he lived next to an industrial factory. I have been fascinated with industrial factories ever since I was a little girl with all of its lights; greenish and sparkling in the distance, I would call them "Emerald Cities." After my small flashback, I turned to Seth and told him I wanted to do a second shoot with him and the factories, and so we did about a month later.

~Meet Dana~(Dan-Ah)  A true beauty from Canada that spends half of her time here in Southern California because
-well Duh!- She's a real gem; a very wise, very kind soul that I got the privilege of photographing not once but twice here in Cali. This photo shoot was all about promoting her lifestyle, Arbonne, and book club! click on the links above ^ to check out and join her book club, follow her on instagram and read all about Arbonne on her site & Facebook business page!! There is no one that I know that loveschicken wings more in this city, or country, or maybe just maybe even the world, then this chickadee right here.  Read it in ink 😜Taking time for Self is like..  Appreciating the blossoming bud for what it is,
In that time and space and stage of its life and accepting it. Not looking at what it was yesterday, or what it could become once fully bloomed. Just, and simply, and only, Appreciating the now. And Loving, feeling, being completely submerged in NOW. And That, that is what taking time for yourself is like. naw mean? This winter and snowboarding seasonwas EPIC. So much SNOW OMG. For week 2 of my 52 I knew I'd be gone to the mountains and not available to set up a photo shoot. So I brought my camera with me.  Freelance photography is fun for me. It challenges me a bit. Pushes the way I perceive the world and forces me to find beauty in everyday mundane things.
1/52 I have had the pleasure to create one of the most detailed and well-thought-out coats yet in my career, and it's all thanks to Seth Goldman and Game of Thrones Season 7, Episode 6.  Daenary's Winter Coat. My inspiration. This one's for you!
Amber is a perfect stranger that I met through e-mails. She reached out because a peer of hers (Shout-out Nina!) was rocking a shawl she purchased at the White Party where I was lucky enough to vend, and Amber loved it! (Especially the part that snaps!)
I love traveling...This time I went to Toledo, Ohio, my hometown. The Occassion: My best friend of 25 years is having a baby! (We met when we were 3! Crazy awesome, right!) She had her Baby Shower and I got to reunite with all my favorite mid-westerns. It was a blast! Like always ~ I brought my handy Canon Rebel and a few hoods to see how my friends and family like the style and fit. And of course I got some candids in AND some orders! Now that I am back in LA, I am fulfilling the orders, and loving the memories I’ve captured.
What's new? Well, May 22, a few days ago, I had the pleasure and privilege to photograph a Hooding Ceremony of the Physical Therapy Class 58 at the California State University in Northridge, CSUN. My dear friend, Myra got me this gig. She graduated with the class, and may I say, won numerous awards and scholarships too! CONGRATS MYRA, & Thank You!! Click read more for more pictures too....
