My last post was all about taking our precious granddaughter up to the mountains to teach her about photography. Of course, that gave me the opportunity to capture some of the amazing wildflowers myself! Our first stop was Silver Lake. One fun thing that I will share. My granddaughter and I were talking all week…
A few months ago, we took our Granddaughter with us to a photoshoot. We put her to work! read the story here: http://farrellfocus.com/sharing-our-photography-passion-with-our-granddaughter/ This past week she came to visit us. I asked her what she would like to do while she was here. Her only request was to go to a photoshoot and assist! So,basically,…
I’m so freakin excited to share these pictures. We have worked hard on our little project. We have a busy life and because of that, we have had to put this project on hold many times. Yes, there are still some things that we plan on changing, so stay tuned, but here are our after…
If you ever wonder how we find so many cool places in the mountains for our photo shoots, it’s because we go up there a lot. And, we love it!! Hubby was stuck in front of his computer for 2 days straight, and I thought he needed a break. So we decided to go “up…
Let me clarify that. I’m still afraid of dogs, in general. But, not like I used to be. When I was a little girl, we had a dog that I loved. Adored. I actually used to fantasize that he would one day be able to talk. He was a cocker-poodle mix and we mostly had…
Traveling is something that I love to do. In particular, Road Trips. I love riding in the car, with my hubby and doggies, listening to the radio and watching the scenery go by. Taking a drive to a beautiful place to take photos is our favorite thing to do together. And, we have done this…
I love this time of year. It’s almost a race to see all the beautiful flowers before they are gone. On Instagram, I started seeing a tulip garden that was somewhat local to me….I knew I had to go! It took some planning, because this place is almost 3 hours one way for us! We chose a…
One thing I LOVE about Instagram is finding new places to go and explore. I had seen photos of Burney Falls posted by people I follower and I really wanted to go see them. But, WOW! It’s far!!! We thought about going on our way home from Eureka a few months ago, but we wouldn’t…
This beautiful place is one of the (if not the NUMBER ONE) destinations for tourists in Amador County. And, it’s only open a few weeks each year!! The story behind the lovely flowers is that the wife of the original homesteader wanted flowers that reminded her of home. So, she planted bulbs and continued each…
We had an awesome day driving to Yosemite. The weather was perfect (it snowed the day before). We packed up our doggies and took a day trip to one of our favorite places on earth! I always say that Yosemite is “ours”, other people just get to see it too! (jk) We pretty much do…
