Santa Barbara

So for those of you who contacted me on Eastern weekend may know that I visited Santa Barbara. Had a great time! Visited a couple of places, spent time with friends and of course took a couple of images. I got so excited when I was driving between the mountains, surrounded by trees and orange fields and just greenery. The best part was when I reached and smelled the ocean! Amazing feeling!

The weather wasn’t always cooperating but we brought out the best of it!

Quietly nestled against a scenic mountain range, the Vedanta center in Santa Barbara overlooks the Pacific ocean. A convent of seven nuns oversees the maintenance of the 45-acre property, manages the bookstore and facilitates public activities at the temple.

Beautiful view to the ocean. Great place to live!

Wasn't really beach weather. We were freezing,

but it was relaxing to lay on the beach, protected

by a sand dune and covered with the towels :-)

La Contessa Yacht Wedding at Lake Las Vegas

I wanted to photograph a yacht wedding for a long time at beautiful Lake Las Vegas. And there we are, last week I had the chance to photograph Hilda and Marc's wedding. They met in South Africa, getting married at Lake Las Vegas, where Hilda's  family lives before moving to South Africa. The weather was beautiful. Finally spring is here in Las Vegas! A couple of images from their blue -themed wedding:
