Too long..

Wow it has been way too long to not have posted anything! So internet, I apologize. The last month had been crazy. Finals, workshops and internships consumed me. Oh yes I have been interning with Jim Kennedy Photographers for the last month and it has been amazing! And now that it's summer time I can't wait to be taking more photos. And have a break.

This brief little update can't possibly fill the giant gap in my blogging. But I promise to be posting more pictures more frequently.

And since every post is better with a picture...

Happy Friday!

Just Because: Brittany

It was cloudy, overcast, and perfect for picture taking. As Brittany and I, with a couple of our tag-a-long friends, adventured around the Ortega Highway we just hoped it wouldn't start raining. And as I decided to pull over on one of the turnouts to take a few shots, it came to be a fabulous photo shoot.

Brittany I'm so glad you decided to have this shoot. I had such a blast searching out fun spots in the forest together:) You are such a beautiful model and so easy to photograph. Thank you for making my job fun!

Just Because: Amanda

"I'm just not comfortable in front of the camera." This is what she tells me as we drive to our destination in downtown San Clemente. One thing I love about being able to shoot my friends is that we can always have a great time and they're more relaxed in front of the camera. I reassure her that it will be fiiine, and besides it's just for fun. And fun it was.

Amanda is like my mentor, best friend, and sister I never had. Anytime we get together we know there's two things for sure: Starbucks and laughing. So yesterday as we strolled along Del Mar we laughed and drank our iced tea from Starbucks. She is also picking up photography and so I gave her some pointers as she practiced away. Thank you for feeling comfortable enough to let me photograph you yesterday Amanda, it allowed for some great photos.

The beautiful Amanda

Like I said, we laugh a lottt

Forever on her phone.

One of my favorites from the day

That's What Girlfriends Do

I love my girlfriends. Each one of them is completely unique with their own set of quirks. So it wouldn't be weird at all if we decided to find a field and have a picnic in it. I mean even if you could see us from the freeway, what does it matter? All I know is that I had a blast!

We spent the day eating enough food to feed a few families. And taking pictures. Of course we had to take pictures. Large random fields and tall wild mustard are some of the many reasons I love San Juan. And it all made for great pictures. And picnics. And lots of laughs, cause that's what girlfriends do.
