i’ve lived in california for almost three years now, kind of unbelievable. there’s always something to do in this state. always, always. in this region even. this year i finally made it out to the famous carlsbad flower fields. ranunculus is one of my favorite flowers (well, mine and everyone else’s) so it’s a wonder it took two years to get here!

Is it still considered a picnic if all you bring is a blanket and wine? [Read more…] about Picnic at the park
i think it’s taken me until this year to be fully aware of how spring envelops los angeles. [Read more…] about Spring has sprung
happy may! this might be the longest i’ve gone without a blog post in many months, but i think about this little blog every single day. i always take photos and have so much i want to post, and lately i haven’t even had time (mental time, really) to instagram, let alone write out something to go along with entire shoots. i’ve been wanting to improve my photo editing skills so i kind of put these off forever, but it’s finally time to share some of the places i’ve gone and thing’s i’ve worn over the last two months… i mean, i think i have photos from early march to share still.

march is a good month for LA. cool and crisp (with your expected 80 degree day mixed in), with a little (or a lot of) haze, good hikes, and blooms. everything here is in bloom. as much as southern california seems very much in a single state of sunny all year long, spring is when you really, truly start to wake up to all the plants and petals surrounding you. but more on that later. for now a sunset shoot on a particularly hazy day.
night hikes are a big thing in los angeles and i’m not really for wandering the canyons in the dark but we went out one evening in a we-haven’t-exercised-today kinda moment and as it turns out it takes a lot longer than a sunset to wind your way back through a canyon. very worth it though with the city twinkling in the backdrop, the glow of the sun which never fully disappears beyond the horizon, and wildflowers all sprung up because southern california wastes no time when it comes to springing into the warmer months. i thought these iphone photos would be perfect to illustrate my latest journal entry on solitude. thoughts and prompts in the post!
