Afternoon stop at Intelligentsia for iced americanos on Abbott Kinney, of course. Who does not want a personal Barista?

Lovely quick day trip.

Coastal Living Magazine

Ridiculous awesome day shooting at the Santa Cruz boardwalk for Coastal Living Magazine story on boardwalks n' food. Sinfully delicious corndogs, cotton candy, candy apples and fried artichoke hearts. Need a detox.  Thanks Kristen, Jasmine, Racine, Jaime, Sarah, Jarrett & Jennifer for the amazing shoot.

PS, I heart you.

Finally made it to the Ace in Palm Springs this past weekend after a rainy shoot in LA. My friend Scott and I practiced doing nothing and rarely ever knew the time of day. It was delicious.

A quick trip to Joshua Tree, hello's to Michael from Flashdance and his beautiful daughter and wife, followed by sauvignon blanc at the Parker.

Three perfect days.

Secret Surf Spot

I can't share where I am. I have been all over Mexico and finally found a place for surfing. No bars pumping late night music, no theft, steps from the break with zero light pollution.

Back to back, reform waves, practically deserted beaches except for the small surf shop (I traded boards with the owner for the week, and we are both in heaven).

Sunrise and sunset surf sessions on perfect glassy longboard waves.

happiness.

anthology shoot

Spent the day shooting the super sweet DJ duo, Matt and Sandy Davis. Waking up, spinning at home, record shopping and lunch. Look for it in anthology magazine in a few issues.
