• ‘Left’ Coast…

  …Here I Come!!
  
  
  
  
  It’s about that time again…
  Time to hide your children, lock up your chickens,
  say your prayers, and run away from the flying
  monkeys.
  
  That’s right… I’m headed back to the ‘Left’ Coast
  
  
  A few weeks ago, I was contacted for a last minute
  wedding reservation up in the Redwoods, near
  Eureka, California. To be honest, I’m STOKED!

  I fly out Thursday of next week, so expect to see
  highlights from the shoot soon there-after…
  
  If you’ve been reading my blog long, then you might
  remember my epic journey all over the continent
  last year on my motorcycle (with my buddy Ethan).

  Though I’ve spent a good portion of my life out in
  California, that trip was special, largely because of
  the way we saw things on the bikes, and the way I
  was able to capture it through my lens.
  
  Without further ado, here are some of my favorite
  (never-before-seen) photos from that trip

  “In The Midst Of Giants”

  

  Those trees are SO big!
  The bridal portraits are going to be a blast

  
  “Details”

  

  Sometimes it’s really a cool thing to go through old pictures,
  it’s like re-experiencing all of the joy, and excitement from
  days gone by.

  I get a real kick out of it

  
  “The Coast”

  

  The shot above, was taken just North of the
  Golden Gate Bridge. The fog was rolling in
  just before sunset, and the colors were gorgeous!

  
  “Coastal Birding”

  

  Remember the picture of Ethan from my last post?
  The one with the lighthouse in the background?
  This was taken just before that, the morning after
  our visit to San Francisco.

  “Bases Loaded”
  
  

  This baseball was stuck in a redwood stump,
  beside mommyfish’s home  where we stopped
  for a quick visit, and a great lunch!

  “Ouch”
  
  

  Back in the days of $2.30 a gallon, California was
  already “raising the bar”.

  Egads.

  
  
  “A High Desert Sunrise”

  

  This photo was taken a few hours after we’d hit the road
  from Laguna Beach. Just 45 hours later, we’d roll into
  Chattanooga, TN, thoroughly exhausted, but accomplished!

  And now, it’s back to work for me… I have a lot of photos
  to edit from Saturday’s fashion show in Miami Beach.

  Let me know if I can be praying for you, please keep me
  in your prayers as well.. I need ‘em!

  

  P.S. Which photo did you like best??

  P.P.S. Southern California people… I’m coming to see you too!
  I’ll be in Laguna Beach on the 15th – 18th or 19th… Let’s shoot
