I visited Chief Mukuni Village in Livingtone, Zambia (Africa) with some of my USC classmates. We got to see how they live in the village, buy locally made crafts, and hang out with the cutest kids! They raise goats and chickens for food, have gardens, hang dry clothes, have separate huts for sleeping and for cooking, and even sprout seeds to make yeast for beer.

Took a roadtrip from the Sacramento area to Lake Tahoe. We checked out both South Lake Tahoe (California) as well as the entire Nevada shoreline. Photos taken on a Canon 5D Mark iii with a Sigma 24-70 f.2.8   
 My cousin Amy and I made the 4 hour drive from Auburn, CA to Yosemite and back for a day trip. Wish we could have stayed ALOT longer.. but I will be back!        
          I took a roadtrip with one of my best friends through the southwest region and I absolutely fell in love with the desert! We started in Salt Lake City to celebrate St. Patrick's day and left the following morning on a 6 hour drive to Page, AZ home of Lake Powell, Antelope Canyon, and Horseshoe Bend. We then headed to Bryce Canyon for a day, and Zion National Park for 2 days, then back to Salt Lake City. Antelope Canyon

  Photos from a last second trip to San diego for a 3 day weekend! La Jolla, Coronado, Point Loma, and more! Also, quite a few beers in Pacific Beach ;) 
 
 I've been trying out second shooting this year when I'm not booked. Last weekend I went to Beaufort for a wedding and stopped in Sheldon along the way. Here are some photos from walking around both areas <3  
A quick weekend in the sun to avoid the winter blues with 3 friends. We hit the beaches, relaxed with some coconut drinks, and went parasailing! Overall, I would much rather go somewhere else tropical than back to the Bahamas, however the beaches were quite amazing and the price I paid for the entire trip was just too worth it! Freeport + Nassau. Photos taken with canon 35mm L lens and go pro      
   From Paros, I took a ferry to the gorgeous island of Santorini where I spent 3 days exploring via ATV with all the wonderful people I met earlier in my trip. The photos from Santorini as well as Paros and Athens can be found for sale here in my print shop! The ferry ride to Santorini     Santorini  
    
    
      Paros is a less tourist traveled island in Greece. I am so glad I went here because everything was just perfect! To start, the locals are SUPER friendly and love to hang out! It is a relaxed lifestyle on Paros. The streets are beautiful stone lined with pink flowering trees. Just like every other part of Greece, there are plenty of cats and kittens to follow you around. There is plenty of hiking, different styles of beaches, and lots of things to do outdoors. Take a look to see for yourself.. See a photo you like? You can purchase prints from my trip here.

I started my tour of Greece off by spending two days in Athens. I highly recommend spending 1-2 full days in Athens if you are headed out to the Greek islands afterwards. I think you can see it all in a full day if you wanted. Here are some of the areas I saw and things I would recommend:

I headed home to Seattle this summer for my brother's wedding and a photography workshop. Along the way I did all the touristy things downtown that I never did while I lived there, stayed in the Olympic Mountains, hiked, ate Ivars on the water, went to Eastern WA and saw my family. Here are some photos from the trip! Downtown Seattle    
  Wandering the rest of Washington       Took a camping trip up to Lake Jocassee which was about a 5 hour drive from Charleston and so worth it! Pretty much decided I NEED a lakehouse here :) Photos taken on Canon 5d Mark iii with a 24-70mm and a 50mm, and on my go pro. 
 
              I spent a gorgeous August weekend in the hilltops of the Olympic Mountains at the Alpine NW photography workshop, lead by Jordan Voth, Taylor McCuthchan, and Noelle Johnson at beautiful Lake Crescent. There were two shoots incorporated. Check out my take on them! Brittni + Trent Zane + Yela I wanted to show a little behind the scenes here on my blog of the things I did and learned... Photos (c) Lo Photo, LLC Noelle lead us up mountain tops...
Jordan showed us how to become one with nature...
We talked product placement... Spent our downtime playing on Lake Crescent...
Instragrammed ... (ALOT) Learned editing styles....My take on the editing we walked through was that Jordan's is very simple and to the point. Taylor takes a different approach and likes to play around with different styles depending on the photos. Jordan taught us that the best shots come from some tricky places...
We saw "That NW Cabin" that got so "instafamous"...
And we went to a couple rad locations for our shoots...  So if you're looking for a mix of learning & adventure - Alpine NW is the place for youHere are some photos from a surfing / body boarding day at folly beach, Charleston, SC. Photos taken on go pro 3+   
  A short video I made with my go pro of Bonnaroo 2015 (Manchester, TN) I went back to Havasupai for a second year in a row with a group of friends - some new, and some from last year's trip. Amazing views as always! {All photos taken on Canon 5d Mark iii with a 50mm 1.4 and a 24-70 2.8 lens}   
 
I went to Baltimore, MD and York, PA to check out The Preakness horse derby with two friends for the weekend! Baltimore    Infield at the Preakness Charleston, SC is home to many beautiful plantations and gardens including Magnolia. These gardens were more natural and romantic than the other gardens I have been to.  
 
 I spent 5 days in the heart of Times Square with my cousin and uncle and did so many things that NYC has to offer! Such a fun and exciting trip in a city that never sleeps. We checked out the Met, the Museum of National History, Central Park, Little Italy, SOHO, took a carriage ride at 1 am, took a helicopter ride around the city and statue of liberty, went to the top of the Empire State Building, and explored the many streets, restaurants, bars and shops.

Every year, the city of Savannah, GA fills with crowds of people from all over to celebrate st. Patrick's day out on the streets. This year I spent the day there with 3 friends.
 
   I participated as the model in a styled session at Middleton Place this weekend and stuck around for a few minutes afterwards to wander the gardens by myself. Here are a few photos I took after my shoot! 
  
 
    
      StingraysThere was a sandbar about a 35min speed boat ride out into the sea where the sand was raised so high you could stand and be about waist deep. Apparently, fisherman used to come here to clean off their fish and overtime the stingrays started gathering here, waiting, eating, and hanging out with the fisherman.   Go Pro
