Holiday Happiness

Janet and Haydee asked if I could do a family holiday shoot for each of them.  They are both married and have kids. Really cute kids. So we met at Johnny Carson Park in Burbank where there were about 4 OTHER photo shoots going on at the same time! It’s a small park but there […]


Homemade Pop-Tarts

They’re kind of like PIE but better and their kind of like POP TARTS only better.   Little hand pies.   I made them for Thanksgiving.   Paul Prudhommes Sweet Potato Pecan Pie Pop Tarts (say that 3 times fast).   They came out ok.  They tasted great and held together but it’s beed SO dry here (humidity 22%) […]


Weddings and Cupcake Camp LA

Immediately after returning from Chicago I had to attend a wedding then prep for Cupcake Camp LA!  Elaine & Chris got married at Casa Del Mar on Friday night.   The wedding was beautiful.  The place was beautiful and they even had a Korean ceremony too.   The string quartet played rock songs and the tables were band/artists.  […]


Chicago & Oprah

Walking

Been getting into walking a lot lately.  I already walk to work every couple of weeks.  It’s a good walk.  Takes me about 45-50 minutes there and a bit longer back (uphill on the way back).  I love it.   You see so many things while walking than in a car.    And, like working out, it […]


Birthday Girl

I’ve worked with Fran for years.  Many years.  We’ve gone through a lot of work shit together and came out on the other side better, calmer and well, older!  It is her birthday today.  I’ve been doing these faux magazine covers as birthday “cards”.  First was Kristina, then Emily and now Fran.    They are all […]
