I shot Gavin’s Dad Tom Atencio 
for Fight! Magazine. He had just had a new baby and asked me to shoot photos of him with his baby. Gavin was 6 weeks old and the sweetest little baby. What was immediately clear was the special bond already between father and son. The whole time Tom held Gavin he either slept at total peace, or smiled. You can see Tom transformed into this amazing loving person before your eyes when Gavin is near. The magic that a child works on our lives never ceases to amaze me. I was so honored to have been asked to take these photos.

What do you get when you add one beautiful family and one incredible day at the beach? Lots of amazing photos full of love and laughter. We had to wait out two weeks of rainy Los Angeles days, but we finally got one perfect day.Paradise Cove has always been one of my own favorite beaches to go with my son. It is a calm spot with lots of tide pools and places to investigate. Cristi and Mark 
brought a great blue bunch of balloons and Cocoa and Miles had a blast running on the beach with them. Cristi and Cocoa have the most amazing blue eyes ever and the sea just brought them out. There are so many moments of love and laughter you can tell this is a loving family. I loved it that Cocoa and Miles both gave me hugs before I left!

California has such amazing beaches. They are so much a part of our lifestyle. El Matador is one of my favorites. If you drive past all the flat rolling sand of Malibu you arrive at El Matador. It has huge rock formations and caves. The sky was the most amazing colours of pink and blue.

I love El Capitan Canyon. It is the perfect get away. Cash and I head up there twice a year just to refresh and unplug. It is past Santa Barbara in Goleta.They have cabins with big fluffy beds and safari tents with the same. The beach is across the street and has some of the most beautiful water colour skies.We sit around the firepit at night and roast marshmallows under the stars. I have passed on the fine art of peeling the marshmallow in layers.Cash brought his Ukulele and our neighbors loved it! We always finish the trip with a great hike up the hills and come home feeling shiny and new.www.elcapitancanyon.com

I am really honored to be profiled in this month’s Osservatorio Digitale professional photography magazine out of Italy. Ezio Rotamartir interviewed me for the magazine. I was asked to submit photos which show my style and what I love to shoot, which really made me think… It came down to the emotion that is conveyed in a photo. Thank you to Ezio for writing such a great article and for asking such great thought provoking questions. It is in Italian, so if you don’t speak Italian you can always look at the images! I was lucky enough to have lived in Italy so know first hand the warmth of the people and am always thankful for my time there. Mille Grazie!

Over 750 applicants were under consideration for the 20 spots for our Shoot! On Location event on July 20th as a part of Shoot! The Day. The 20 chosen photographers will engage in a photo shoot based on five key image categories noted by image buyers as most depleted: active seniors, youth culture, family and kids, business settings and still life. The photographers will be led by expert instructors and armed with all equipment and staff for the shoot, including state-of-the-art cameras and lenses from Nikon, lighting equipment from MAC Group, with models, stylists, make-up artists and locations provided by PhotoShelter. Pretty cool right?
(drum roll, please)

I love the wind! Everything from a gentle breeze that caresses, to a strong wind that takes anything you aren’t meant to hold. Wind is one of the reasons I have always loved having long hair. I love taking a shower, jumping on my bike with wet hair, and feeling the wind transform it into something airborne. I love driving with the windows down and my hair flying, filling the front seat with chaos. I especially love the wind that comes before a storm. It carries the smell of the rain to come, and the promise of change. Wind holds the force of nature, it washes over me and makes me feel alive. It makes me feel like I could almost…fly.
