PhotoGirls09: Day 2

How cute is this sign? Our beach house is treating us quite well. We cooked up an oatmeal breakfast this morning that was out of this world! 030

Rebecca is our in-house tech guru who finally got our stereo working. Thanks woman! :) Here we're gathered around the projection TV talking shop.

Misha whipped up some coconut chocolate chip cookies. I'm thinking of kidnapping her and bringing her home with me. Shh! :)

One word: Fantabulous! I was floored to see so many family, friends, past students and clients this morning at BryanLGH's Women's Day event. Thanks SO much for coming out! Special thanks to Mary and Jami for organizing such a great event. I am so honored to have been part of it!

I presented on "10 Tips for Taking Better Photos." Here, I'm explaining how to avoid the perils of cropping by filling the frame, getting closer and shooting it the way you want it.... in the camera. :)

After brunch, the ladies were treated to the entertaining genius of Jeanne Baer.

0032Ladies, thanks again for giving me the opportunity to be part of this event.  I'm flattered beyond belief! :)

Feed, Schmeed

So.... basically.... when I moved my blog over here, I screwed up my feed/bookmark. And only about 1/3 of you fine folks successfully got the new feed (which is totally my fault!). Sorry! I'm feed-challenged apparently.... please update your book marks one last time and I'll promise not to touch the feeds again! :)

Meanwhile, here's some red door yumminess from Center City Philadelphia. :) Right near Rittenhouse Square!

Video Project: Orange City, CA

/

When I travel, one of my favorite things to do is connect with people. Our recent trip to Vegas and up the California coast gave us a number of opportunities to meet up with great people. In Orange City, we met up with the ever fabulous Kjerstin & Joel and together with the Bui Brothers, we spent the afternoon working on a special project for KaBloom. :) 88

Since we were shooting in "Orange City," I thought this was apropos.  :)

Vu and Lan workin' their movie magic....

They suggested we shoot in this field of clovers. Which meant, we had to search exhaustively for a 4-leaf specimen. Apparently the odds of finding one are 1 in 10,000.

Vu had Kjerstin & Joel's comfort in mind and brought along Shoot Sac sample swatches to give them a clean and cushy spot. (Sorry Jessica!)

I shot this photo because of the clover behind Joel's ear. Later I found out he didn't even know it was there. Very sneaky Kjerstin! :)

Here's Kjerstin giving me a wink before the Bui Brothers kicked Emir and I out suggested that Emir and I take a "romantic walk"  (away from the camera). :)

Thank you ALL so much! What a treat to bring so many incredible people together for an afternoon of fun, capped up with a yummy dinner! xoxo

I am Woman. Hear me ROAR!

I am SO stoked to report that I will have the distinct honor of presenting at the upcoming annual Women's Day event (put together by the fine folks at Bryan LGH!). Color me flattered! I'll be sharing some tips on how you (yes YOU!) can take better photos of life's most precious everyday moments. So grab your girlfriends, and sign up now! (The deadline is March 8th... and it's expected to sell out fast!) Also presenting is the fabulous Jeanne Baer. It's double the fun.... Don't miss it!

With a very full wedding calendar, I'm only able to accommodate a very limited number of 2010 seniors this summer.... so don't wait, my calendar fills up FAST!
