Had a so-so day today at work. And there is nothing more in this life I hate more than "so-so". My dad used to laugh at me when I was little and tell me "Sis, everyday can't be the superbowl!" Ahh, I'm almost 25 and that's still my scariest reality. I just love the lights, the fireworks, the thrill and still have a little girl wish that everyday could be like that. Since that's not exactly the case, I'm striving to have a little spark of something special everyday. Since I struck out today, I'm throwing on some red lipgloss and trying my luck tonight. Keep moving people, keep dreaming.

TGIF.

As always, I admire your attitude Christin! Well said, even if you, um, borrowed that last bit. Your determination to follow your passion—I'm thinking of the drive to the studio-lights thing for example—will cancel-out those strikeouts that occur. Regarding studio lights, I started with one monolight, then added another, and now a third, as I get more comfortable with them. Still tons to learn though. They take up little space and they're not too expensive; buy one and play around! I'm not sure where my road is going, but without taking chances and throwing some curves into it, my journey would've continued to be a dull one for sure. Rock on!

The Mots Nouveaux - Retro Pop

11.06.10

Meet two of the most fabulous people I know. Emma Fizpatrick and Aaron Beaumont. When the retro-pop-duo asked me to do a shoot of them, we thought we'd do a simple shoot in a park somewhere. Little did we realize that by the time i got off work at 6:00 on Friday night, Griffith Park wasn't exactly the brightest place in LA. Somehow we ended up downtown at the Biltmore Hotel, which is filled with charm, gold & style. Pretty much all of which matchup with Emma and Aaron perfectly. They'll be releasing much of their new work next Friday night at Kiss Lounge in Hollywood.

Blessed to be a Blosser

10.10.10

I can't believe how much fun Ben & Kendra's wedding day at /www.postlewaits.com/ was. It was a little bit of a gray sky the entire day and I don't know how, but the moment they were announced Mr. and Mrs. Blosser the sun poked out of the clouds - it was pretty amazing how it just started shining right then. You guys have an awesome life ahead of you & both have the greatest personalities. I had a ball with you and your families!! Here's a sneak peak of your day and you'll have the rest soon. Congratulations!!

All Love in Lake Oswego.

09.28.10

It was one of those early fall days in Oregon when the sun shines perfectly. Actually, I can hardly explain it but it felt like time stopped for this celebration. Lifetime friends gathered in Lake Oswego to celebrate a new chapter in Wendy & Dick's life. With a Cuban theme; drums were played all afternoon, cabana hats were worn & sweet cocktails were served.

The beautiful blonde you see below - that's the bride, Wendy. In spending a weekend with her I can safely say that she is the type of person that reminds you to give more, smile bigger, laugh harder, & take little for granted. She just has that infectious attitude that makes you want to always be around her. Hmmm, maybe that's why Dick went for her? ; ) The truth is Dick & Wendy won the lottery by meeting one another later in life. The afternoon was all joy and I have no doubt that the rest of their lives are going to follow suit.

Here's a sneak peak of the photos.

Nat & Anina - Tie the Knot in Malibu

09.24.10

I think that Anina's maid-of-honor put it best in her speech when she said, "And then all of a sudden your entire life changes in an instant." I know, I'm such a hopeless romantic at times, but that gave me chills. After growing up just miles away from each other - Nat and Anina met on a sunny day at Coachella music festival and well, pretty much the rest is history.

They are two of the kindest people you'll ever meet & their wedding was a ball - just a time to celebrate with all of their family and friends. It was held at the http://www.adamsonhouse.org/ in Malibu, which sits right on the ocean. I can't really imagine a more beautiful setting or a more stunning bride!! Pretty much that's all anyone was talking about at the reception...how gorgeous Anina looked.

I hope you're travels have been wonderful guys. This is just a sneak peak, but all of your photos will be waiting for you when you return.

Some of the awesome Vendors that made the day happen:
