First and foremost I have to thank my mother for this 2 week experience of a lifetime, without her love and support it would have never been possible....and to my husband for always pushing me to achieve my dreams

This trip started out with the longest car ride of my entire life lol...but thinking about it now, it only seems like the blink of an eye...until we roll out in a few days and make the journey home, then I'm sure the reality will be all too clear once again

When Sublime and I started planning this trip I had only a vague idea of what was in store and all the hopes for a one part wonderful and one part educational experience
At this point in the game with only one shoot left on the docket I can say that my time in this wonderful place lived up to all of my expectations and more.

Besides being able to add some spectacular images to my port, I have had the pleasure of working with some amazingly talented and just plain awesome individuals.

David L. Le Beck
David was my first and will be my last shoot in L.A. this time around The time we spent working together was seriously as fun and awesome of a time as you can ever hope to have.

What an amazing team these two gentlemen make!! not too mention super talented, funny and spectacular to work with!!

Perry Gallagher
We had a fantastic afternoon shooting together....and he made me the most visually perfect turkey sandwich I have ever seen....nevermind indroducing me to a new kind of mayo I've never tried before, always a plus! lol

Michael Helms
Michael came over for the tail end of my time with Perry and it was great to have met and worked with him if only for a short time

Kelly Lind
Kelly and his Mua were very very cool

Her poses and look have wowed me for quite some time and we finally had the chance to work together....so stoked!! woot woot for Punk Bunny some of the radest music I have been introduced to in a loooong time

[link] Lyssa Lucious
I only had the chance to grace her presence for a short time but not short enough to have stopped us from working together

Super mega awesome Mua extraordinaire!!

Sublime
....after meeting all this fine talent that I had been admiring from afar for ages, and with both of our busy schedules.....Sublime and I still found the time to shoot together in some new and differest surroundings....It is and will always be an honor to shoot with my close friend who has been there from the start...thank you!! on a sidenote there is not a hope in hell I could have done this trip alone nevermind the countless hours of driving and creepy rest stops along the way LOL though taking all that into consideration, I would do it again in a heartbeat!!!

After all is said and done I will always look back on this trip and get one of the hugest smiles across my face I have ever had.

Well....its later than I should be up with as early as I have to be awake in the morning but somehow with all of the caffeine and nicotine running through my veins I have found the strength to will my fingers into typing this..... lol

I dont usually have the urge to write about what's been going on in my life.....maybe its some weird thing that happens to me when I stay up too late??? ha!

I'm watching my Pom and my little white cat sleep together on my living room sofa and thinking about all the things I have to look forward to in the next year.....I will be going on my first major road trip EVER with a close friend of mine (sorry Uncle, the time I took a greyhound bus all the way to your farm in Saskatchewan when I was 16 doesn't count lol....)........My husband has a rad new job doing something that he enjoys........My niece is starting to walk all on her own OMG!!!! she's 14 mnths old ......I'm also seriously thinking about going back to school.....OH YEAH and that F'ing surgery I have to have at the end of May, really not looking forward to that

So many things going on in my life right now, that's the way it's always been and I like it that way

IN OTHER NEWS.......

I would like to give a shout out to some fantastic and talented friends I've been fortunate enough to work with recently:

Darren - Seriously I cant wait to shoot again never mind our trip!!! OMG I still can't believe we're going!!!

Wayne - Maybe tomorrow when I wake up the whole of Canada will be swallowed up and I can just jump over a small ditch to work with ya again.....far fetched I know but it would be rad

Jenine - Besides being made of awesome.....You seriously ROCK at what you do...I can't say that enough
