My amazing friend Kaiy is opening a new restaurant in South Pasadena and I got a chance to photograph some of the deliciousness last week.

Everything is so beautiful and intentional, from the food, to the wine selections, to the gorgeous design — shoutout to — it’s all art in restaurant form. Kaiy and her team did an incredible job creating this space for the community. ❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥

They are open by reservation only for these first couple of weeks and I highly recommend you grab one and experience it all for yourself! 🖤🍷🖤🍴

If I could go back in time and change anything about my life, it would be to whisper to the young version of myself to pursue photography earlier.

I always loved taking photos but never considered that I could turn it into a viable career or had any inkling about how it would open up my world.

It’s taught me how to find and appreciate all of the different qualities and kinds of light. It’s taught me patience and how to really “see” someone and look for the most beautiful things about them. It brought me out for hundreds of sunsets. 🌅

I feel so lucky to do this job and capture this much beautiful human joy in a world that often feels bleak.

So this is permission to all the ambitious young artists: Experiment. Play. Try all the things. You never know where they’ll take you.

I’ve gotten a few new followers through this whole book marketing process, so just want to make it to a little reintroduction. 👋

This is my son at five-years-old, hugging the first snowman that he’d ever made. He wanted to be a teacher when he grew up because he loved his kindergarten teacher so much and “it’s the goodest job I can think of where I can help people.” Five-year-olds are so full of sweetness and wonder.

I keep thinking about Liam Ramos, in his little bunny hat, who was taken by ICE even though he and his family are here the “right” way, even though he’s five, even though there were family members there to care for him. They sent him to an ICE facility in Texas and I’ll bet he really needs his mom right now.

And I’m thinking of Renee Good’s six-year-old, who should also have his mom right now.

And there are plenty of other Liams. So many broken families because of this evil and cruel administration.

The non-stop cruelty is exhausting and heartbreaking but let’s not look away. Let’s keep our eyes and hearts open and keep “kicking the darkness until it bleeds daylight.”

Some thankfulness on Thanksgiving. 💕

Earlier this year, I had the pleasure of photographing Stephanie and , the most adorable romance book truck. 💕📚💕

You know something is a good idea when people approach to shop even while you’re not open for business, which is what happened over and over during this session. (I get it. I stop for books, too.)

And I am convinced that Stephanie is a marketing genius because she lines up the coolest book events and partnerships across LA. (She has even lured this introvert out of her cave.) 🧌

And the best news? The Fleuria is going to be at the book launch bash for The Happily Ever After Society on November 2nd! 🎉🎉🎉 (I will be sending out the link to RSVP for that this week!) And Stephanie will carry some copies of the book on The Fleuria, so if you’re in LA and want to pick up a copy in person, keep an eye out for her Nov/Dec events!

I have been so very busy shepherding The Happily Ever After Society book into existence that I am behind on posting client sessions and personal work.

I am changing that today, starting with this gorgeous human. Rebekah Faubion writes sweet and steamy q***r rom-coms (with the coolest covers) and has a new YA thriller (The Lost Girls of Hollow Lake) coming out in January.

And as if all of that talent were not enough, she’s also just ridiculously fun. Spending the morning with Rebekah and felt like a party — can you tell from the photos? 😆

I know it’s not about me, but can I go ahead and make it about me? 😆

It’s so fun to see these authors out there killing it and also see my work in places like People Magazine. All of it just makes my heart so happy. 💕💕💕

Kind of feeling like I got hit by a truck today (I might be too old for parties now?), but so proud and happy to watch Matt and this amazing team of editors get an Emmy for Welcome To Wrexham. ❤️🖤❤️ Special thanks to for my glam!

Before I launched my photography business, I spent many years working in television and film — and my husband is a television editor — so I’ve met my fair share of celebrities. I don’t get starstruck easily. (Okay, I definitely had a moment when I saw Steve Martin.) But meeting Jayne Ann Krentz had me a little starry-eyed. Because to me, she is a star.

I’ve been reading her books for close to thirty years. I picked up my first Amanda Quick novel as a tween, and I still remember the delicious anxiety I’d feel—the suspense she wove into those stories before delivering that guaranteed, satisfying happily ever after.

Jayne has also been one of the genre’s earliest and most thoughtful voices when it comes to talking about romance—its power, its legacy, its importance. That conversation is still vital today. If you’re not familiar with her work, do yourself a favor: pick up one of her books and listen to her on the Fated Mates podcast (Season 4, Episode 18). I promise you will laugh and learn — Sarah and Jenn did a fantastic interview and Jayne is just incredibly fun and compelling.

I’m so beyond thrilled and honored to include her in The Happily Ever After Society. ✨✨✨
