Bearpaw Shoot

January 16th, 2011

Loading up the van at 6am on my first day of the shoot – the out of focus blur is my artistic depiction of the mood.

Mike from Sportie LA and Randy from Bearpaw showing off some of the fabulous product we got to shoot.

Don’t feed the animals! An adorable little raccoon wandered by us at lunchtime.

Jess, working it. Is that blue steel?

Daniella Grace and Jess posing in the Bearpaws. So cute!

Here’s Jess, the photo assistant Kanan Miller, me and Daniella at the end of the shoot! It’s a wrap.

Flying to Reno/Tahoe for Bearpaw Shoot

January 13th, 2011

This week, I’m in Tahoe for a lifestyle shoot for Bearpaw Shoes. It’s been awhile since I travelled to California on an airplane (I usually road trip) and it felt refreshing and glamorous. One of the upsides to being petite is that I can comfortably relax, compute and sleep in the tiny seats.

Whenever I fly out of Salt Lake International, I try to get a window seat so I can look at the mountains from a birds eye view and see the mountains I’ve skied while scouting potential new zones for hiking and skiing. It is so exciting to look at a mountain, river or canyon from the air and think back to the experience of being there on the ground – it brings a whole new perspective. This time, I was able to get a great look at the Oquirrh mountains located west of Salt Lake City. They were so beautifully snow capped that I had to take some shots. I’d love to hear anybody’s experience with skiing or hiking out there!

Stay tuned for some behind the scenes shots from the Bearpaw shoot. I hope everyone is enjoying January and partaking in outdoor adventures since it is the national learn a snow sport month and most U.S. states have or are getting snow. Be safe out there and have fun!

If you ever happen to be in Ventura, CA on a Wednesday morning, make sure to stop by the fairgrounds for the Swap Meet/Flea Market. It is one of the best I’ve ever been to!
