  • Green grass in our front yard. Or toddlers playing in the sink. Because California is experiencing a very serious drought right now. (This is what the hill behind our house looked like last year.) (This is what the same hill looks like this year.) So it is time for all of us to start finding…

  • This film photo was not taken today, but with the weather we’re having, it could have been.Instead, I took the day off from photographing today and I’m posting this photo for my Monday To-Do list.

  • I realized on the first leg of my three+ hour commute to South San Francisco that today was my second to last photo shoot with the Studio Choo ladies. After two years working together, I am going to miss bundling up in extra layers, eating burritos with green salsa, trying to bounce light off the…
