How do you plan to decorated your Christmas tree?  I bought a bunch of ornaments from IKEA because I'm a fan of Swedish designs.  They sell these beautiful crocheted stars...

Let the Sunshine In

Here are a few more images from the streets of NY....I mean Universal Studios.

 

NY State of Mind

 

Shooting at the backlot in Universal Studios!  It was basically an all-access pass to check out all the cool sets.  We shot in the NYC section and rented a few taxis for our shot.

Party Time

I don't know about you, but one of my favorite things about the holiday season is getting dressed up and attending a holiday party.  Next week is our company holiday party so I've been looking for a cocktail dress and accessories.  So far I picked out the fabulous headband pictured below.  I'm not sure if it's a wise decision to plan an entire outfit around a headband but it's just so pretty.  We'll see.  If I can't wear it to next week's party, I'll just have to find another occasion!

Winter in the Desert

Wow.  Between the Thanksgiving holiday and a photo shoot I just produced, it's been quite busy so my apologies for the silence.  As mentioned, this past week I was on location around LA and Palm Springs.  My day job involves producing photo shoots for Deutsch, an advertising agency in Los Angeles.   I produce print ads that you've probably seen in billboards, magazines, posters, subway cars, brochures and the web for clients like VW, PlayStation, HTC, Fresh & Easy grocery store, California Milk, etc.  It's fun, challenging, and often gives me the opportunity to travel a bit.

Last Thursday we drove to Palm Springs and shot on a strip of roadway between the wind turbines.  They're pretty awesome and HUGE.  I didn't have time to whip out my fancy camera so I thought it would be fun to try out some of the cool apps that I have on my Android phone.

More photos of my trip to come....

Back to Reality

I'll be posting some cool images tomorrow from my travels around LA and Palm Springs!
