My wonderful boyfriend Keith surprised me with a trip to Catalina for Valentines day. We hiked, biked, ate everything we could get our hands on and hung out with a few bison. Catalina is lovely and it's such a short trip for Southern California locals; hop on a boat and go explore in your own backyard!

Happy Holidays!
San Francisco
The past few weeks have been monumental for me. I am happy to announce that I have finally left my day job and will be devoting myself FULL - TIME to my passion; photography. For the past year and a half I have stretched myself pretty thin working full time and pursing my photography career at every free moment I could grasp. I am so blessed to have such an incredible support team behind me. It's truly unbelievable what one can accomplish with a group of loved ones rooting them on. In celebration of my big career jump and my one year anniversary with my wonderful boyfriend, we took a mini vacation up to San Francisco and I must admit: I fell head over heels with this wonderful city.

Sunday Dinner...
Tonight I set out to make some spicy shrimp tacos, inspired by the lovely Lindsay on her fun blog From the Aisle to Aloha, not only were the tacos delicious, but we also had a pretty nice little sunset here in Long beach as well, check out the shots from my kitchen window!

Sunsets part DUEX
Tonight's sunset was downright TRIPPY! I was in Riverside earlier in the day and the clouds were wispy and wonderful, I raced down to the beach only to find this thick, foggy marine layer and was severely disappointed to say the least! It seemed a little thin, and honestly a little eery so I decided to stick it out and see what happened... I'm SO glad I stayed because mother nature decided to do some funky stuff...enjoy!Shots will be available for purchase soon @ www.paigelowe.com

Every once and awhile a beautiful reminder hits you of how incredibly lucky you are to have the life you do... Last nights sunset was one of those reminders...Happy October everyone!

El Cap 2011
My boyfriend Keith and I took had a little escape this weekend to El Capitan in Santa Barbara, things can get a bit crazy during wedding season and a little break to sit and just BE is exactly what I needed! We surfed with a few seal friends, hiked along the coast and even caught a grey whale jumping out of the water. I wish the weather would have been a bit better but the overcast definitely set the tone for a relaxing weekend...enjoy the photos!
El Cap.
Cheers to the f r e a k i n g weekend...
Excited to get some solid nature time in and will be sure to post some shots when I return!
