I haven’t experience snow for many years and to my surprise I found it Exciting and Fun!

Fluffy and powder snow on trees and branches, crispy crunchy sounds beneath my shoes while walking put a smile on my face. It was also constantly snowing! 😍

Traveling and finding a way back to myself.

I’m super excited to see these photographs being printed and framed! Some of them you will find framed at my open studio (October 23 & 24, 2021) this year, others you can order at my online store later in December.

Last fall I decided to go on a road trip and follow the coast line south California. I camped along the road at campsites that were still open… (remember, we where in this awful shutdown due to Covid-19. Hopefully, we are now on our way out of this epidemic).
It was a truly amazing journey, and exactly what I needed!
I visited national parks, sat at the beach and hiked mountains. I had a longing to be fully immersed in nature, to reconnect with myself, away from the city. I felt my creative juices started moving and began photographing landscapes that past by as scenery; a new portfolio of work has been born.

Below are 3 photographs that I shot during the trip and edited on the spot. They were all photographed in the mountains of Cerro Alto, California, where it is quiet at night and incredibly beautiful.

Editing and selecting images for print, it is an exciting time as I am preparing for our open studio on October 23 & 24 at the shipyard. 😀
After a year of lockdown we are once more ready to open our doors to the public. We are excited and energized!
I am crossing my fingers that covid cases stays low and ‘under control’ so we can keep open up our city and state to the world.

Weekend: October 23 and 24, 2021

NEW Studio!

Covid safe photoshoot

Oh, what a time we are in… isolated and perhaps even a bit scared to meet people, at the same time socialize and to be social is such an important part of life.
Today I tend to flowers and plants as my best friend and ally when creating and photographing in my studio. They have been my savior this past year.
I’m slowly getting ready to crawl out of hibernation, with 2 covid-19 vaccinations under my belt I am ready to meet the world.

Window and views..

…during a very welcomed rain that we need so well!
I’m in my studio working on some new photographs that I just took earlier this morning.

During break, I noticed how beautiful my indoor plants looked to the more muted outdoor‘s rainy background.
I hope you enjoy it as much as I.
