During our last photoshoot in the Capitol Hill area, we also took some photos near the public library and the Denver Art Museum. The central public library is great - it's huge and has a good selection. There's even an entire section of Japanese language books, which I was delighted to find on my first trip there. The staff there is extremely helpful too. I haven't been back there much recently, since it's just a little bit too far to walk on a regular basis. I've walked there a few times, but it…continue reading →

We shot some photos today in Capitol Hill before brunch at Fork & Spoon. We thought it was going to be nice since the weather forecast said sunny and in the high 50s - low 60s, but we were duped. It was super windy, and therefore cold! If it wasn't so windy it would have been quite a nice day, but wind ruins many a would-be nice day here in Denver. Got some cool photos though! The brunch spot we went to was decent. Not as good as our go-to Sassafras, but if…continue reading →

Back when we were still living in LA, Will and I took a day trip up to Yosemite. Despite living in Fresno for two years, Will had never been there before! Obviously we had to remedy that, as Yosemite is one of America's great treasures. We went during the height of summer, so while the waterfalls were at their peak, so were the crowds. We spent around 45 minutes just trying to find parking! It was worth it though. We did the Vernal Stairs trail, and the waterfall was massive. We got soaked…continue reading →

Here are the rest of the photos we took in RiNo on Sunday. We managed to get some nice shots in at this cool mural before the sun was completely in our eyes.       Follow my blog with Bloglovincontinue reading →

Will and I headed up to the RiNo district for brunch and a photoshoot last Sunday. RiNo, short for River North, is an up and coming area of Denver filled with independent restaurants, coffee shops, boutiques, and breweries. It's got a very industrial vibe and interesting backdrops, which is what we had in mind for shooting some fashion pics. There are also some great murals, but we lost our light before we could get to them all! We felt a bit overdressed for brunch, but we got some good shots in before the…continue reading →

Will and I went to El Matador with Ernie, who is a much more experienced photographer than either of us. Here are some of his photos from that day! I think Will needs some pineapple shorts to go with that pineapple tank. He doesn't agree, though. I like this shot in front of the rocks. He's probably thinking about how cold the water is. It was super cold. The weather was amazing though!continue reading →

Last weekend, my boyfriend and I made an excursion out to the Getty. It had been a while since we went to a museum, and the Getty was having an exhibition that I wanted to check out, the replica Dunhuang caves with Buddhist art. The Getty is a very scenic museum, with views of Los Angeles, clean and modern architecture, outdoor picnicking areas and gardens. (It's also, incidentally, filled with Pokemon.) The day we were there, though, the view was quite post-apocalyptic, as there was a fire burning in Santa Clarita and the…continue reading →

I went to El Matador beach in Malibu with my boyfriend and another friend who gave us a DSLR tutorial (thanks, Ernie!). I'd never been to El Matador before, but it's a popular destination for photographers. We saw lots of photoshoots going on while we were there. It is a very scenic beach, lots of picturesque rock formations and blue water. We tried to get there early so as to get the best light, but we ran late and there was some traffic (as always) so we ended up getting there a little…continue reading →
