I am strolling down Santa Monica Pier gazing at the pretty carousel lights and people watching, when I get a text from Kyle asking if I wanted to road trip with some friends to Joshua Tree tonight.

It's 9:45pm already, and I race home to gather clothes and we are on the road by 11pm.

Sometimes the most unexpected, last minute decisions can be the most powerful. This set is to date one of my absolute favorite shoots!
