Piers

The Ventura Pier is one of our favorite subjects. Everyday the pier looks different..all day long the light is changing, the weather, the tides…it is always exciting to see what new look it will provide.

Ventura Scenics

We feel so grateful to live here is Ventura County- this area of California is filled with natural beauty and variety and is less crowded than other coastal communities. There is always something beautiful to photograph.

We have been shooting with large format film again! After many years of gathering dust, we have brought out the big cameras again. It is so fun to slow down and meticulously compose an image. Shooting film really makes you think twice before you click the shutter. Looking forward to sharing some of our favorites…here is our first!

iPhone Americana Photos

Nothing like a county fair to get you feeling nostalgic for childhood. I have to credit my i-phone for getting me out and photographing for fun again. After 18 years working as a professional and always having to make clients happy, it had become pretty rare that I would pull out my camera to shoot when I wasn’t “working”.  Then about three years ago when I purchased an i-phone and realized that it had a pretty amazing camera in it I found myself pulling it out to shoot with on the occasions when I didn’t have my “big” camera.  I ended up shooting a little of “this and that” anywhere I went and was slowly becoming re-inspired as a photographer.  These images, all shot on my i-phone were the result of that summer. Since then, I have completely embraced photography again as a creative expression for myself and am enjoying shooting all sorts of cameras. My latest adventure is with a beautiful little 4×5 field camera!! —Yes- a large format FILM camera….Images from that sweet little thing will be coming soon! 🙂
