It was a beautiful fall evening in the flats of the Mississippi River and I got to make a new friend. B’s mom and I are book club friends, and I’d met B when he was much smaller, but hadn’t had the pleasure of spending much time with him now that he’s a bigger kid….
I’m joining a talented group of photographers for a 10 on 10 blog circle. The idea is to shoot and share a ten image story from a single day. This time it’s a quick trip back to a day spent with friends (in person, finally!) in the sunshine and gorgeous breezes of the southern California winter….
A beautiful and continually inspiring group of ladies and I have been doing this favorite 5 blog circle for years now – yes, years! Every month we post a small selection of favorite shots from the previous month, add a little bit of commentary and link on to the next gal in the circle. So, be sure…
I was just thrilled when Laura got a hold of me looking for senior photos. I don’t do a whole lot of senior sessions, so the ones that I do are really close to my heart. Laura is such a sweetheart – she has a great fondness for textiles, and would love to go on to study…

Oh California, so pretty! I can feel the warm breeze in each shot.
Thanks, Audrey 🙂 It was so glorious to have a little midwinter getaway!
I have warm weather envy! These are all just stunning.
Thank you! I could use a little more of it now 😀
You captured So Cal so beautifully. Do I spy Andy Kennelly in that cave? 😉
Thank you! And you do, you do! 🙂
I love that you were able to squeeze in a visit while you were in town! So cool
It was so great – saw Tracie and 6ftmama too! It was magic. California magic 😀
That third shot looking back at the shore and city beyond just completely gobsmacked me. So much beauty captured! I also love the silhouetted man at the entrance to the cave. Ahhhh! I just saw that it’s Andy! Perfect!
Ahhh – thank you!! It is Andy – it was such a fantastic day 🙂 xoxo
