Yesterday Caitlin, Lauren, + I arrived in Long Beach, California to gorgeous sunshine and giant hug from my West Coast friend Katie! We immediately began our road-trip zipping up the West Coast to Santa Barbara for a dreamy sunset on the beach as we celebrated our first evening together!
This afternoon, we’re shooting a dreamy Editorial Shoot on the beach that I’m so incredibly excited for! This West Coast light is truly extraordinary… Once you experience the sunsets here, you’re hooked for life!
Through the end of the month, I’ll be traveling from Long Beach, California up the Pacific Coast Highway to San Francisco before island hopping our way to Oahu + Maui and ending in New Zealand! (Can I stop right there… WHAT AM I SAYING! Hawaii? New Zealand? I still can’t believe that this is happening!)
I’m excited to be photographing multiple Editorial and Styled Shoots in each location, documenting Anniversaries + Lifestyle Portraits along the way, meeting with other photographers, networking with bloggers + planners and working on a few small behind the scenes projects that have been on my heart for quite a while. While traveling, I will still be blogging through a few scheduled posts and occasionally answering emails (although, please forgive me if my response times are a little delayed for the next two to three weeks).
If you’d like to follow along with this crazy adventure – Join me on Instagram!
I will be keeping my account updated as we explore new locations + collaborate on fun Editorial Work!
