11/8/11

I assisted Getty photographer Jerod Harris on another portrait assignment. This time he was photographing writer/director Pedro Almodovar at a screening of his new move The Skin I Live In. Pedro’s eyes are very sensitive to bright lights and flashes so we opted to use hot lights instead of strobes. Jerod had about 3 minuets to photograph Pedro before we followed him into a theater to document a Q&A about the film. The shoot was fun and I got an awesome new profile pic thanks to a test shot by Jerod.

10/28/11 Disneyland

I took my camera for a solo trip to Disneyland today. I actually really enjoy going to the park alone; Disneyland is one of the best places for people watching and being a single rider makes the lines a lot shorter. They’re taking down the Halloween decorations soon so I wanted to ride Space Mountain Ghost Galaxy one last time before they did. The Haunted Mansion’s Nightmare Before Christmas theme will be up through the winter holiday season though, which I believe starts on November 14th!

10/20/11-10/23/11 East Coast Trip

My mom and I flew cross country to Warren Pennsylvania for my Grandfather’s 80th birthday/family reunion. I hadn’t seen any of my east coast family since I was 13 years old. It was really great to reconnect. Although it was a bit of a culture shock because it is just so incredibly different from where I live. There’s so much space there! The foliage really blew me away, nothing like that in California.

The Madonna Inn

The Madonna Inn in San Louis Obispo is probably the coolest hotel I’ve ever stayed in. I had always wanted to stay there but never gotten a chance. So, this was my birthday present from Max. Our room was #173 Floral Fantasy… So much pink.. It was amazing. Anyway, we checked in on my birthday (9/26) and had dinner that night at the hotel’s steakhouse. The food was beyond delicious and for desert I got a pink champagne birthday cake! Max and I also brought a bubble gun along for the trip because, why not?  Bubble guns are awesome.
