Today, the weather controls all.

Boston, MA - Spring 2011

Between a few flat whites (coffee!), a photo exploration and ferry ride, upbeat music, grilled vegetables and scotch, I've managed to stay awake and energetic until now (9:23 pm) despite the fact that it is probably obscenely late back in California where I was a day and a half ago, but now I am starting to crash.

I'm not convinced my body is thoroughly happy after being cramped on a plane for so many hours, but tomorrow's morning shoot will tell.

good day

Sacramento, CA - November 2011

I smell onions and tofu cooking on the stove and have homeroasted coffee in my belly...

My previous two weeks in the bay area have been a perfect balance of relaxation, work and play. My good friend Rebecca Lawrence stayed this past week, and learned that the West coast may be pretty awesome, at least up until midnight.

Sometimes I joke about how my job is to be pretty and creative, and to withstand the cold. The weather is always unpredictable in the bay area, and Robert and I were worried about our plans to shoot outdoors during our shoot the other day. Our backup plan never came to fruition, as we braved the cold all morning (the locations were well worth a dose of chill) and shot in the guest bedroom until dinner.

Onwards to even warmer places...(Australia!)

Cop

Shooting topless across from a Texas police station, and being able to see stationed cop vehicles surrounding the location, makes for a slightly perilous shoot. (Take note of the cop truck directly in my line of sight)

Too many options

The concept of a home is very appealing to me. But my plans to run around the southern hemisphere may interfere.

This morning I was playing dress up - I had on a pair of white panties.

High contrast

I'm rather keen on high contrast. And a great environment to shoot in. Now that I am back in the Bay Area though, shooting outside might leave us with a few too many goosbumps in our photos.
