What a crazy few months it’s been! Towards the fall of last year my amazingly talented BF, Jayse got a job offer to take a lead screen-graphic design role in Marvel’s The Avengers (coming out this week)! The only catch was it required him to come to Los Angeles to work. Though we’re admittedly both workaholics and each run our own separate businesses, we’re used to working across from each other and love being around each other every day. So this was a BIG change. Luckily it came at a time of year when a lot of my work could be done remotely from our little temporary home in California. But the months ahead still consisted of many many weekend trips back-and-forth between from Vegas to L.A. for meetings and photo-shoots. During that time Bella became my official road trip buddy. She had the drill down pat: grab favorite teddy bear, jump into passenger seat, have momma put on special seat-belt, lay down, sleep, watch momma stop for Mad Greek, get some doggie treats, sleep some more all the way home:
It was an extremely busy few months for the both of us, so once we were officially back home Jayse and I decided to steal a little vacation time for just the two of us! We didn’t have a lot of time to plan so we just packed up and drove off in style in Jayse’s awesome 350Z. We did the Pacific Coast Highway drive – planning everything from my iPad as we drove with windows down, breathing deep to take in the fresh sea air. It was the perfect get-away – leaving both of us refreshed and recharged!
Here’s some photos (taken with my trusty iPhone) from our trip:

Wow, what a year! Huge thanks and virtual hugs to all my amazing couples, friends and family that made this year absolutely incredible! I’ve been so busy that I haven’t been able to blog much, but you can be sure that I have TONS of images that I can’t wait share with you (coming very soon).
For now, I want to take a moment to wish everyone a happy Christmas! For the last few years Jayse and I have been making personal holiday cards with the theme of “Christmas in the Desert.” Here’s the photos from this years card:
I hope you have a magical Christmas and New Years with the ones you love the most! 2012 here we come!

Jayse and I got a fun surprise in the mail… A GIANT (and very delicious) chocolate and peppermint covered fortune cookie! Love it! Before we devoured it, we took a couple quick photos to share:
Frances & Eddie: We love you guys! Thanks so much for the sweet surprise!

Our little girl’s birthday was today. I can’t believe she’s already 3! Earlier in the day she had some doggie friends come visit, then later we celebrated with presents…
And some treats and delicious birthday cake from Sniffany & Co. Mmmm mmm!
Things got a little messy…
But it was all in good fun and totally worth it to see her happy face!

Allo! Just sending a little update from Paris! So far the trip’s been wonderful. The first night Jayse and I visited with our friend (and fellow photographer) Juliane and her husband for a delicious Parisian style homemade meal of fondue and wine on their candle-lit rooftop. In addition, she gave us a fantastic insider’s tour of the city. We also made new friends with some local newlyweds who we got together with for some dress trashing fun, and took some time to enjoy the slower pace of things here and all the city has to offer. Tomorrow’s our last day in Paris, then we head into Lille, France (an hour north) for Lani & François’s wedding!
I can’t wait to share all the photos and stories from our trip once we return back to Vegas! Until then, here’s a photograph of Jayse and I enjoying the Eiffel Tower. Seeing it in person made me finally get why it’s so famous. Seeing it in the skyline creates an element of romance and magic, and it’s new with each different vantage point.
Big thanks goes to Sophie for taking this of us!
A bientôt! xox Chelsea
