Napa Valley, CA : Jose Villa Workshop

Last summer, I attended The Jose Villa Workshop at Aetna Springs located in the vineyards and rolling hills of beautiful Napa Valley, California. The weekend consisted of two full days of creative shooting and specialized seminars for photographers. Let's not forget to mention the delicious food, decadent wine, and meeting wonderful new friends!

4 THINGS... INSPIRATIONS

Happy March everyone. The last of February has been tons of fun, but I’m always excited for the beginning of a new month.Obsessing over: oh my goodness everyone- I am OBSESSED with the orangutan in this new Android commercial. She is just the most adorable animal ever.

Reading: The Morning Miracle by Hal Elrod. It has inspired me to wake up early and meditate before I hit the shower.

Watching: Mike and I went to the Old Globe this week and saw The Twenty-seventh Man and it was phenomenal. It was incredibly touching, I wish everyone could see it. It was definitely one of the best plays we’ve seen all year.

Dreaming of: remodeling our office. I have a dream people- it may be small but it seems great to me. Hopefully I’ll share some pics with you over the coming weeks.
