Today on my way home I saw the most beautiful rainbow! It was so full of color and it stretched across the whole sky. Unfortunately I didn’t have my camera with me and I had a long way till I got home so I wasn’t able to take photos of it. Luckily there was a gorgeous sunset right when I got home. I quickly grabbed my camera and went to a school on top of a hill and started taking photos. At first I was trying to get the sunset but then got caught up in the reflection of the trees and lights dancing across the puddles. This is why I love the rain;
And here is the gorgeous sunset in an animation format {you might have to load it all the way then look at it}

Looking at this how can anyone say there is no God? How can anyone say the world was an accident? There’s so much detail in sunsets, so many colors, shapes, movements. It’s a beautiful art and every art has an artist :)
After watching the beautiful sunset I started walking back to my car but got distracted by the reflections in the puddles and started taking more photos throughout the schoolyard.
This month I got an idea to do a Christmas giveaway (coming soon) and that idea slowly turned into reality. I told my plan to a few Etsy crafters and they loved it and joined in the giveaway by donating a few items. So I had the plan & now the items … next I needed a model so we can do a photoshoot and promote the giveaway! I thought and thought who would be perfect for this and decided to go with Naomi Imbre (I asked her and she was delighted to do it).
Yesterday we went out and took some photos {I wish we went eariler because we only got an hour of sunlight} and I’ve been editing them since. So without further ado here they are:
Thank you Naomi ! I had a fun time bonding with you :)
day 300 ~ Catalina Day one
This weekend I went on a, much needed, vacation to Catalina with my family. We left on Friday and stayed till Sunday afternoon :)
To get to Catalina Island you have to take a ship from Long Beach to the island itself, which takes about 1 hour. The ship drive itself was beautiful; we relaxed in the breeze, saw a rainbow, talked, and even saw 3 dolphins! As we pulled up to the island it got more and more peaceful and beautiful!
Here are the photos from Friday, in the same order I took them:

DESCRIPTION:
.welcome message.
INSPIRATION:
As I’ve been working on updating my website this month I decided to have a welcome message on the home page. I made this image / banner in photoshop by layering the different layers. The title font is my favorite part, I’ve been wanting to give that invisible looking font a try.

I was happily surprised when Joey asked me to do a photoshoot for him. I met Joey a little more than a year ago when Ema, one of my closest friends, started dating him. I was happy to see their relationship grow and later being part of their wedding :]
