Whirlwinds and cherry blossoms

This week we celebrated Greg’s 32nd birthday. I took a whirlwind trip to Vegas where I DP’d my first spot for Yeti with another all female crew. It was totally amazing in every way. I can’t wait to shoot more car stuff, next time. My only regret is that I didn’t get dirtier, that I didn’t break a filter getting a sick shot, and generally that we played it a little too safe. I have no doubt that the edit will be sick, but next time I’m getting IN THE DIRT.

I also said goodbye to my Grandmother this week. Her favorite colors were Mauve and the purple she often dyed her hair with. She was a total firecracker, she survived cancer. She took care of my grandpa for his entire life. She helped with us when my parents needed it. She was strong.

While filled with sadness, I also feel inspired by her strength and resilience.

Happy to be home.

A pre-shoot junk show. Diane, my Z Cam E2 is really getting into her groove. I made the sunshade on the flight to Vegas using tape and cardboard.

My grandmother died yesterday. Stormy skies behind these beautiful cherry blossoms. Taking photos of the flowers helps.
