Make Memories

5 Mar

Capture

For the past 2 weeks I have been back in the place I love the most, San Diego, California. The sun has shone and I have been happily ensconsed in family, ocean and sand, getting the fresh air into my lungs and loving the bones of life.

Don’t get me wrong, London has its appeal and this sprawling city full of life sings to me in the summer, yet my heart longs to ditch the faceless streets of the city for the fresh air of the cliffs and the song of the sea.
So here are some shots of my time. I hope you enjoy them, and I promise I’ll get my fingers moving again shortly, Samantha!

Scripps Pier, La Jolla, California. Looks like a horrible cement pier from the top, but underneath its alternative beauty. I love it.

Palm trees are my absolute favourite, and this is why. They remind me of La Jolla Cove.

Lifeguard post at Torrey Pines State reserve, a hike I love to do to see the ocean from a different angle and get some exercise!

This sign got Nicki Minaj stuck in our heads. FOR THE WHOLE DAY

If you could be anywhere in the world right now, where would you be?

On The Road Again

6 Feb

Next week, I am heading back to the place I love the most, California. I plan to take the boy, hang out with my family and visit some of the places my Granddad loved to go to when he was there. Paying my respects, and filling my world with his happy memories.

So while I am busy packing and getting prepped for the trip, I thought I would share with you some of my favourite shots from my past trips, ready for hitting the locations again with my new camera! (I opted for a Nikon).

Enjoy!
