Angels Crest Highway and San Pedro Harbor

Angels Crest Highway and San Pedro Harbor

A few months back I had the urge to travel, but not the time to make a trip. I decided to discover some local LA sites. My first day I took a drive through the Angels Crest Highway that has only been reopened for a few months. It was shut down due to fire damage. [...]


Behind the Scenes – Colgate Optic White

Behind the Scenes - Colgate Optic White

While working on the commercial in Budapest I was allowed to take photos! It was amazing to see this simulated runway, and to see Anthony’s clothes shown so beautifully. I have such a fond memory of this experience. Below are some of the photos I took behind the scenes.


Colagate Optic White Commercial

I had a great time in Budapest. Above is the project we worked on. All the runway clothing in the commercial were designed by Anthony Franco.


Budapest

Budapest

In August of last year I had the great pleasure of being in Budapest for my birthday! Anthony and I were there for a Colgate commercial with Pam Thomas. The commercial was fun and Budapest is amazing. I learned that people in Budapest don’t shop for fun, which is a new concept to me! We [...]

Bear Lake Tavern

Bear Lake Tavern

I love sitting in a cabin in Big Bear Lake, CA. It’s a short drive from Los Angeles, but feel like you are deep in the Sierra’s. When you are there you can see all of the constellations at night, take a boat trip on the water in the summer, go for a ski in [...]

17 Mile Drive

17 Mile Drive

17 Mile Drive is a group of pillows that was made in honor of Carmel by the Sea. This was one of my mom’s favorite places to visit, and so I often reference it when I want to pay homage to her. This is a place that we would take quick weekend trips as kids, [...]

Zihauntanejo

Last month I had the pleasure of visiting Zihuantanejo with Anthony. The trip was amazing! We stayed at The Tides Zihuantanejo, which was so amazing.

Big Bear

Big Bear

Anthony and I have a new obsession, it’s called Big Bear!  Big Bear Lake is about an hour and forty five minutes from Los Angeles, but a world away.  We took our first trip up there in August to visit our friends Brad and Elena.  They have a cabin that they let us use from [...]
