Holiday Memories Contest

Thanksgiving is over.  Black Friday has come and gone.  The Holiday season has officially started.  To help myself get into the mood, I thought I would put on a little contest.  With all the stresses of the holiday season, I thought I would focus on the positive.  Anyone is invited to participate.  I would like to hear your favorite holiday memory.  Post it on this blog or on my photography facebook.  Everyone who participates will be entered in a drawing. 
The prize:  I will shop for a holiday present just for you!

The contest ends Saturday Dec 1st at Midnight Pacific Time. 


My memory:  It's not one specific memory.  Just being a kid at my grandma's house.  Christmas Eve.  That's when we open our presents.  I just remember me and my cousins, eating the food, and being so excited for it to be 8 o'clock so that we could open our presents.  That night always felt good and there was so much excitement. 

Robyn Part 2

Robyn

For this shoot, I ventured out to the hills of Tarzana to visit Robyn at "the mansion" as it's fondly called.  I told her I wanted to play with light.  And we did.  The photos in the chapel were taken in almost complete darkness.  It was wild.  It was a very cloudy kind of day that day. But I got to spend time with really wonderful people, and I was thankful for that.  I'm trying to be really thankful for all of my experiences lately.  Life has been a bit wild and definitly beautiful.   There's always badness, but there's no point in dwelling in that stuff.  So here's what I've done of Robyn so far.

Try to enjoy every day and every moment.  Moments of pure beauty happen all the time, but you  have to remember to see them.
