City of Angels

One week in L.A.

Hi!

I just got back from a quick trip to the South of France for a wedding and I can’t wait to get the photos developed. I was able to pick up my Contax T2 from repairs just in time the day before I left—it felt so good to be back in action!

Today’s post is from a weeklong trip to Los Angeles a little over a year ago. Working east coast hours on the west coast meant I had lots of time to explore during the afternoons, so I took advantage with many museum outings, hikes, early dinners, and more.

It was also the first time I felt like I was taking photos I was excited about again after a creative hiatus. I remember going to The Huntington Library and staying hours longer than I planned to because I was having so much fun getting lost and taking photos with nowhere else I needed to be. The best feeling!

I love these photos and I hope you do, too!
