San Francisco in Black and White

These photos are a bit more "fine art" than my usual photographs, however, I can't help but love them in black and white! These images were taken just as we entered San Francisco, on my very first trip to California. It has taken me a while to post them, but I think they were worth the wait. :) Enjoy!

Just out of curiosity, who would be interested in having prints like these in their home? The more landscape photos I take, the more I think, "Wow, this would be so pretty on my wall!" I'm considering selling prints of these and other photos from my portfolio.

I have exciting news!!!!  I quit my day job!

It has been a long time coming. I loved my part time job working at a local Portland print shoppe, but with the new year blazing onward it soon became clear that I was meant not to print other people's photos, but to photograph and print my own.

So what am I doing now you ask?! Working, silly! And working from home to be exact! I've been working on my business and reevaluating my pricing, editing a lot, and most importantly--photographing. It is wonderful and freeing, and also a little bit scary! But I am so excited for what 2014 will bring and all of the beautiful images just waiting to be photographed!

Speaking of beautiful photographs...I just realized that I never posted our San Francisco trip pictures (from almost 6 months ago)!

So without further ado, here are just a few of the highlights from our road trip to San Francisco to celebrate our 1st Wedding Anniversary:

In all honesty...this only covers about 2 1/2 days of our 8 day trip, haha. I didn't even get to all our city shots! If you've never had the chance to drive down the Pacific Coast Highway...it should definitely be added to your bucket list! Best. Trip. Ever!!

More city shots to come! So, stay tuned for more images!
