This night hawks trip was one of my favorites last year, and this year’s trip did not disappoint! Last year, we walked away from the observatory and took pictures from a distance. This year, we stayed close and got some different shots! Then, we went down to Hollywood Boulevard for some street shooting. One of […]

However, somehow our last day together in D.C. managed to do JUST THAT, since we got to tour the West Wing in the White House. As you can imagine, there are not pictures allowed inside, but I was able to […]

I have always enjoyed the photo trips and being Julie’s camera “Sherpa”, but this trip I took some pictures!! It took some getting used to the camera, […]
Read more "Huntington Library – Mike’s Pictures"Mike and I did our first photo adventure with the Creative Photo Academy last Sunday and it was such a blast! It was an all day outing – 10am to 8pm!

Read more "Huntington Library – Julie’s Pictures"This month’s Night Hawks outing was basically right in our backyard! Riviera Village is a small shopping area in Redondo Beach and we were excited to check it out at night!

Read more "Night Hawks – Riviera Village"A month ago, I bought a book titled 10,000 Steps a Day in LA and it has 52 different walks that are around 5 miles each in different parts of LA. Since we were already going to be downtown for the Arts District photo walk, we decided to do one of the downtown walks! It […]
Read more "Downtown LA"This month’s Day Hawks outing was in the LA Arts District downtown. Mike and I had never been, so we were super excited to see another part of the city!
