Sorry I've been away

I can’t believe it’s been a couple a weeks! I have been very busy with holiday portraits, pictures are great gifts for this time of year. Next year I am starting holiday portraits in August:)

Lots of birthdays, my sister Janea also known as “Lily’s mom” (she has official accepted this as a alternate title), celebrated her 25^th birthday “The Sequel”. My husband Justin turned 31 and my friend Cassie turned 30, embraced it with an awesome rad 80’s party it was totally fun; for sure oh, my gosh!

Enjoy birthday pictures and beach portraits I took over the last couple of weeks. Currently I am working on some Mommy to be pictures, they’ll be up soon.

Sooner… than later,

Date night make it, keep it and go on it!

After almost 9 years of marriage (15 January 1999) Justin and I still date, many couples forget to do this, because of everyday clutter. It’s nice to sit down and laugh about our day or reminisce about the past. One might think that since we’ve been together so long we might not have much to talk about. Well it’s not true, but even if it were we can always talk about our date.

This Friday we went to the Getty, one of my favorite places. They had 2 photography exhibits I wanted to see.

Edward Weston: Enduring Vision, famous for finding sensuality in anything, just Google pepper #30. Weston’s work is inspiring because it is still beautiful; with all of today’s modern advances. The Nude, a collection of several artist, nothing jumped out but inspiration can be found everywhere. Maybe inspiration will come later.

The grounds of the Getty are lovely I could stay all day, Justin was the photographer for the day (his arms are longer than mine). As a photographer I am a bit of a control freak about my pictures. When ever people see Justin and I taking our own pictures they always offer. I graciously except…it almost never comes out the way I hope. But in the spirit of good will I don’t want people to be hurt, besides I can just erase it…they do mean well.

Treasure date nights and let strangers take your picture (with in reason)

Sooner than later Z
