Tiffany | Fall Portrait Session in Orange County

October 16th, 2018tantony0 Comments

Hello all! We’re in the middle of October and that means it’s pumpkin season! Nothing says October more than a visit to the good old pumpkin patch. My friend Tiffany wanted some fall portraits and we knew the local pumpkin patch would be a warm and festive location. Surprisingly, it started pouring the moment we stepped into the patch! There was no rain in the forecast so weren’t prepared at all, but after hiding under a tent for a while it eventually let up. We took the opportunity before the next downpour to take our photos, and the stormy sky …

Hello all! So excited to share this blog post with you because this was definitely one of my favorite weekend trips ever! I’d heard so many good things about Portland, OR and I just knew it would be my kind of city. There are trees everywhere, it does get rainy, the food is great, and there’s tons to do! Just walking around Portland was a pleasure because it felt so different from life in Southern California. I’m definitely going to take another weekend trip to Portland sometime soon, this time where I won’t have to make sure I do all …

Downtown Santa Ana is home to quite a few trendy places, and Vacation Bar on 4th Street was no exception. This bar is a dream with its aesthetic accents, complete with a variety of plants and welcoming wood furniture. They really know how to give you the vacation vibe both with their tropical interior and with their unique drinks; each cocktail was named after a city, from New York to Tokyo. We checked out the bar shortly after they opened at 5pm on a Sunday evening, and there were plenty of spaces sit, relax and sip your drink. We each …

3 Days in Denver: First Time in Denver Things to Do + Itinerary

March 19th, 2018tantony0 Comments

Hello everyone! So I’ve been looking over my pictures from my weekend trip to Colorado last year, and I’m really missing the crisp air and open land. We went to Denver on a whim: it was almost Labor Day weekend and we wanted to travel somewhere. But of course on a holiday weekend flight prices skyrocketed—except for flights to Denver. We had never been to Colorado, Denver sounded like a cool city, and we could cross Rocky Mountain National Park off our national park list—all for around $160 round trip! So here are Denver weekend trip ideas and a few …

Everything You Need to Know About the Museum of Ice Cream

December 6th, 2017tantony0 Comments

I’d been dying to go to the Museum of Ice Cream ever since pictures appeared on my Instagram feed earlier this year. I mean, a museum filled with Instagram-worthy photo backdrops and ice cream samples–what’s not to like? How to Get Museum of Ice Cream Tickets Even though the museum was clearly on every millennial’s must-go lists, I didn’t expect the hype to be that real. Once I saw my friends post pictures from the Museum of Ice Cream in Los Angeles, I knew it was time to check it out. Or not. Turns out all of the tickets for …
