So for a two-hour drive outside of LA you can find yourself in a completely different environment. Pretty cool. :)

I had the pleasure of doing a shoot with fabulous photographer Dorian Caster up in the snowy mountains. And when I say snowy, I mean Big Bear apparently hasn’t had snowfall like this in over 4 years kind of snowy. You would have thought I was being shipped out to Siberia with the way I overreacted with how much I packed for the cold – LOL – but the efforts were well worth it. You can see more up on my page at the Ford site Tania @ Ford and of course it will be up on my site soon!

The first was a job in Portland for HGTV’s “My House is Worth What”. I don’t have any behind the scenes shots of that, but Portland is a gorgeous spot and I fell in love…

I went across the bridge into Washington State for no reason other than I could…

Portland is – needless to say – significantly far North so it stays light FOREVER in the Spring/Summer (or dark forever in Fall/Winter). Being from SoCal I wasn’t used to that. I never knew what time it was! This was 11pm

the drive to Location

the view from Location

and then in the Spring I travelled to Sedona, AZ where I shot a multi-page fashion editorial for an international fashion/lifestyle magazine based out of Canada. The editorial was featured in the upcoming Summer Fashion issue. Here’s some BTS of the fab crew I worked with;

… and here’s the Finshed Product:




I’m very proud of these to say the least! :D
