Trying out new techniques on a recent road trip to Joshua Tree

Last week I journeyed south on an a long awaited road trip to Joshua Tree National Park. I drove down with a few other photographers and we had a great time photographing models during the day and the stars at night.

stars

 We photographed the eerie demise of Bombay Beach at the Salton Sea, the breathtaking stars and  landscapes at Joshua Tree and an Australian model in a rusted out vintage railroad car in Pioneertown.

While in Joshua Tree, we kinda sorta did some camping which reminded me that I have not spent enough time sleeping under the stars! My biggest goal for this trip was to photograph the Milky Way and I’m happy to say that I’ll still be working on that this summer.

The ceremony was in the backyard  over looking the Pacific Ocean.

They must be well liked in the neighborhood!! For the reception they took over the cul-de-sac with a dance floor, dj and  tables.

Villa Montalvo engagement session

Rainy day engagement session at Villa Montalvo

engagement session
I was a little worried about the rain while driving to meet Rebecca & Michael at Villa Montalvo for their engagement session. I have been looking forward to shooting at this stunning Saratoga venue for a long time. Although I would prefer spring time and a sunny day, rain and winter were the couple’s theme.
rain umbrellas
I love their umbrellas and sense of style.
I’m looking forward to 2013 and a spring wedding at Villa Montalvo when the wisteria is in bloom! Hopefully I’ll be back before then. If you have an idea for a fun themed portrait session, give me a call! 831-325-4183

3rd Annual Santa Cruz Love Project

I’m very excited to announce the 3rd annual Santa Cruz Love Project!

Saturday February 11, 2012

11am – 2pm

In the classroom at the Cruzio Building, 877 Cedar Street, Santa Cruz, CA 95060

This year proceeds from the event will benefit Grind Out Hunger, a program that works with Second Harvest Food Bank and local schools to raise awareness and funds to feed those less fortunate in Santa Cruz County. It’s really shocking that 1 in 4 children in Santa Cruz County are food insecure. This year, with your help, we have a goal to raise $5000. Please help us spread the word about our portrait event!

If you have been planning on updating your headshot or wanting to have a portrait taken with your loved one, please plan on attending this fundraiser. We will have several backdrops to choose from including a floral frame designed by Lezlie Johnson from Grand Design. We’ll have stylists Lorene and Roze from Oebius Salon on hand to ensure you look your very best in front of the camera. We’ll also have Valentine treats and a raffle. We are suggesting a $50 donation however, amounts larger or smaller will be greatly appreciated. Call Rebecca 831-325-4183 for more information or to schedule your appointment.
