I'm wondering how this is going to look because it was taken with my camera phone, but we'll see.

Jessica lives in downtown LA with her three daughters, mother and father.  She is fortunate enough to have the help of The Children's Bureau to get her through the difficult times.  This photo shoot really made me open my eyes to what a wonderful program the Children's Bureau has and how it helps families nationwide.  She has the CUTEST daughters and it was a delight to be in their home.

Since I have been on Pinterest, I have been inspired by everyone's pins and new artwork.  The one website which I love is 500px.  They have the most amazing photography that I have seen in such a looooong time.  When you get a chance, please feel free to view some of their images. http://500px.com/editors and check out  Luis Beltran's work.  He is SOOOO Amazing!!! http://500px.com/photo/5332818 Giulio Zanni  is another beautiful photographer http://www.giuliozanni.com/#/0  or Antoine Beyeler Please let me know of any other photographers you appreciate:)

I have been looking through some old pictures and came across some of  my Grandmother I took 10 years ago for my photo class at ICP.  She was so beautiful, unique and fun.  Cheers to Barbara Klebanow!

Yesterday was a full packed day at the WPPI event in Las Vegas.  Matei and I listened to three wonderful speakers: Jerry Ghionis, Elizabeth Messina and Jose Villa.  I have to say, I was most inspired by Elizabeth Messina.  She has a fantastic eye for photojournalism.  In fact, Matei and I cried during one of her slideshows, that's how moving it was.  Please enjoy some of the photos from the convention today:)
