At home, with James | March 2016


Our daughters are older a bit older and closer in our age to each other than our son. James just turn 10 last month. And because he’s younger than the girls, I often think of him as being this little toddler running around the house.

But he’s not a toddler of course. He’s growing into his own person. Comfortable in his skin. Full of his own hopes and dreams, ideas and opinions of what is right and wrong. He’s a day dreamer and an old soul wrapped into one. 

Los Angeles, California

After leaving the desert, I drove to Los Angeles, California and had the pleasure of meeting up with Pete Halvorsen in Venice. He’s such a great guy and super talented photographer.

The next day I picked up Lauren and the kids at the airport and we spent an extended weekend on the west side of LA. These are a few photographs from Venice, Santa Monica and Manhattan Beach.

A few days alone, in the desert

Earlier this month I attended a business conference in Tucson, Arizona. The conference ended a few days before I had planned to meet up with Lauren and the kids in Los Angeles.

So when the conference ended, I rented a car and spent a few days driving and exploring the desert on my own, as I traveled west.

I spent a night in Joshua Tree park. I had never been before and I was really looking forward to making the visit. The Joshua trees were beginning to bloom. Everything was so peaceful and beautiful. I made a two hour hike in the morning and just took in the solitude.
