California Wine Country - Napa

I'm heading out to Napa next month, so I dug up some old pictures I took from last year's trip. From a photography perspective, I'm really looking forward to making some photos on this trip. My approach to my photos will be totally different plus I'm going to test out my skills with my new film camera...yup film!

Anyway, here are some photos of the B&B (Maison Fleurie) we stayed at in Yountville and wineries (Pine Ridge Winery and Robert Zinskey) in Napa.

Cherrydale - Arlington, VA

I drive by the Cherrydale Hardware store located on Route 29 in Arlington, VA every morning on my way to work. This store speaks Americana to me every time I pass by. The windows are filled with vintage Radio Flyer wagons and bbq equipment. It gives me a feeling of what it would be like back in the 1960s. I would buy my tools from here any day versus going to the Home Depot.

Diggy the Boston Terrier

Have you ever been inspired by something and applied it consciously? I think this is the first post where I actually did just that. I saw some photos on a blog post at Ali Harper Photography and wanted to do something similar. Ali Harper is an amazing artist!  I don't know her, but her blog site is pretty rad.

My brother and his Boston Terrier - Diggy, were troopers. They braved the cold and light mist to let me shoot. With all the construction around my brother's place, it made Diggy look like a junkyard dog.

Catching up with Friends

On Thursday I met up with some old college friends at Cafe Asia in Rosslyn. It's always a great time catching up with these folks. I can't believe I've known most of the them for 15 years.

RJ + Young Soon

Here are some photos of my friend RJ and his fiance Young Soon. We did an impromptu shoot right before happy hour. I was trying to catch the little bit of light that was left before sundown. These two are great looking couple!
