Celebrating 6 years.....

in Santa Barbara! Six years ago today, I was pulling up with my U-haul to Santa Barbara, not knowing one person yet. I decided to follow my dream and passion of photography and attend the well known photography school, Brooks Institute of Photography. I left my home town-San Jose, Ca to enter into the "beautiful land" of Santa Barbara. :) And just fell in love with this place. I love the weather, I love the sound of waves crashing, I love taking couples out on the sand week after week. It is so awesome because most brides come from out of the area and just love getting their pictures taken at the ocean. And you know what? I am never going to get tired of that because I just can't get enough of the beautiful ocean! Wooooohoooooo!
Time just really flies by, it is hard to believe that was 6 years ago. What fun memories I have so far. So, cheers to Santa Barbara and to more beautiful weather! hahaha! I love Santa Barbara!!!!!
