Last week, I headed to San Diego for a workshop hosted by Noa from Feather Love Photography.  I’ve been in love with her work for a while and I couldn’t wait to meet her and hear her insights.  I’m such a nomad – it was wonderful to be on the road and working from a hotel room and getting intentionally lost in an unfamiliar city.  I would honestly travel from place to place and live out of hotel rooms forever if I had the chance.  Plus the sunshine – dear God, the sunshine…  As I’m writing this right now, I’m looking out the window at a cold white sky, bare branches, and an icy brutal wind that is quickly making the roads impassible.  Coming from a snowy little mountain town at 8,000 feet to glorious T-shirt weather where the trees are still green was so refreshing.  What I wouldn’t give to be back in San Diego right now.. :)

My hotel was right across the street from the water!

A huge thanks to Noa’s friends and our models for the workshop.  Beautiful people, beautiful weather.

Love the light in this one.

Love this shot of fellow workshoppers walking out the  back door:

That amazing light in the image on the left is what I want my entire life to feel like:

We finished up the workshop in Noa’s awesome studio space.

And then we had a dance party.  Until, like 3:30 am.

I left the workshop with a thousand ideas and a lot of thinking to do.  I’m definitely looking forward to making some positive changes to my business.  I still have a lot of processing to do but am totally inspired!  Noa – thank you SO MUCH for pushing me in the right direction and letting us take a little peek into your awesome life, style & home.  Love you all!
