2. Cover of book (not my image)

April 1

admin — Tue, 01 Apr 2008 22:52:21 +0000

More from my postcard collection. I also collect food and kids. One of my chef friend’s brought these back for me from Paris a few years ago.The French call April 1 Poisson d’Avril, or “April Fish.” French children sometimes tape a picture of a fish on the back of their schoolmates, crying “Poisson d’Avril” when the prank is discovered. Rough translation “The fish of April are very often jokers. You will see that those are stuffed with softnesses.” “You awaited it I am certain. Remains has to know who I bring?”

A really cool caricaturist named Soozi made this image of me at an industry networking event recently. I had never done it before - it was fun. I love how she incorporated so many elements that make it ME.

postcards and aceo’s, art cards, editions and originals

admin — Thu, 20 Mar 2008 06:56:43 +0000

On a trip to paris for a friends birthday a couple of years ago (this week actually - happy birthday Brigid!) I found a few amazing vintage hand painted photographic postcards in a flea market. Whenever anyone I know is traveling I always ask them to look for more cards for my collection. I try to focus the theme to couples and marriage to make it easy and it goes along with what I love to photograph.While looking for more postcard’s online I came across etsy.com a really fun place and discovered aceo’s, art cards, editions and originals. I also try to focus on couples. One of my favorite artists is studiolyon. Two of her pieces below. I have a bunch and will share more soon.

Victoria & Bob ~ The Firefly, South Pasadena

I’m thrilled to share the wedding images of Victoria and Bob. Congratulations to you both and thank you so much for sharing your day with me.

The reception was at Firefly which is just a few blocks from my home studio here in South Pasadena. I have to admit it was really nice to be photographing a wedding so close to home!

The other day I was walking down to 750ml (which is a nearby hip new restaurant) I spotted a huge tree in front of the South Pasadena Library. As you can see from these images, I just had to work it into Victoria and Bob’s wedding day photos!
