Photography: Sunset & Rest

Spent a few days by the ocean for my daughter’s birthday. It was a lovely, relaxing time filled with giggles, music and games. I’ve been going so much lately it feels good to finally be home this week. I’m taking a little time to get my house back in order, return to my regular routine, and focus on my health.

On July 1st, I’ll be launching my 100 Day Poetry Project and be posting daily here again. You’ll see me experimenting a lot with words as I work on my poetry book which I hope to publish by Christmas. In addition, I’m adding more clients to my calendar and working on a website to officially launch my photography business in January of next year. This includes getting a business plan and license, buying new gear, and taking a few more classes.

For now though, let’s watch the sunset together. Let me know if you have a favorite and have a fantastic rest of your week!

When Lola was little we went to hundreds of music festivals. Over the weekend she played Pops in the Park, a huge outdoor music concert with three bands. Watching her perform while little girls danced in front of her…it was a big moment in a year of big moments. Here’s a few of my favorite photos. Thanks G.I.R.L.S. Rock Sacramento!

  3. What a beautiful season of life this post captures. The image of celebrating your daughter’s birthday by the ocean—surrounded by laughter, music, and simple joys—feels like a reminder of what truly matters. I also admire the balance you’re striving for: returning home, restoring routine, prioritizing health, and simultaneously pursuing your creative dreams with such determination.

    Your 100 Day Poetry Project sounds both exciting and courageous, and I have no doubt that the dedication you’re pouring into your poetry and photography will bear wonderful fruit. Wishing you every success as you build your book, your business, and the life you envision.
