Yesterday I photographed the amazing 100 year old craftsman home of Annette Gutierrez, owner of Potted. This is her awesome kitchen!
Yesterday I shot this private residence in Encino, with interior designer Sayre Ziskin.
What a wonderful space!
I might love this song more than life itself.
Yay!! I won the Apartment Therapy first annual photo contest!
I’m very excited about this news, and want to thank everyone who voted for me !!
Yesterday on Apartment Therapy, I featured a Tech Tour of my friend Kristy Ahumada’s bedroom. In her bedroom converted one of her closets into a workspace. See how she operates a very successful wedding photography business from her childhood bedroom.
I didn’t photograph this tour, I only wrote it. All images by Kristy Ahumada of Volatile Photography.

Last year, in February 2011 I teamed up with modern quilter Alissa Carlton to shoot her new book. The book “Modern Minimal” is now finally on sale at Amazon, and I’m excited to share the pictures.
This was one the funnest projects I worked on and the book turned out beautifully.

Hey Katherine Heigl fans! This dresser was the furniture design she contributed to the Jean De Merry Ten Event for The Compassion Revolution. My photo of the dresser will accompany her interview tomorrow on the Nate Berkus show!
Last week I visited the home of Tori Avey, she is an incredible food blogger who explores the history and love of culturally based recipes. She looks at the tradition of Kosher cooking, and explores the basis of Jewish cuisine. Her beloved blog The Shiksa In The Kitchen is a powerhouse for all this great fun!
Check out her recipe for The Golden Girls Cheese Cake!
“The Golden Girls” has a magical quality about it that just makes you feel good. No matter how tough my week has been, or how tired or stressed or bummed I might feel, I can always count on “The Golden Girls” to lift me out of my funk.”
Full kitchen tour coming to TheKitchn.com on Tuesday!


10 RANDOM NOTES ON A SATURDAY MORNING:
1. Yesterday I had an hour long conversation with a psychic; she knew the exact name of my father and one of his brothers. She knew how my Grandfather died. She knew that I knew two Jeffs. “One with with glasses and one without…” She also gave me an exact name to a future husband.
2. I’ve found the best way to make use of my free time is to stop logging on to Facebook and start reading The99Percent.com
3. My mom is my best friend, and she knows it.
4. My dad comments on every single Apartment Therapy post I write. It’s hilarious and adorable.
5. It’s raining right now at 8:30am and I love it!! Winter, finally.
6. The rule of “Quality, not quantity” applies to everything. Every thing.
7. Drink a lot water, not coffee.
8. I’m finally debating about signing up for Twitter. It’d be to basically hit the Twitter media network with more of the same stuff I post on Facebook, which is what I post here and that’s usually just Apartment Therapy stuff. Or news of my photography. I was really against Facebook for years, then I realized the power of promoting your business… and I’m realizing it may be an inevitable choice for me to join Twitter after all. My friend Yigit posted a link about the contest I was just in, to his fans- it got me like 15 votes in 20 mins.
9. Every day is a new day, and that’s okay with me. I don’t really have a choice I guess.
10. Take naps. You’ll feel better.

Yesterday one of my best friends, Yigit Pura, came to LA for a quick visit. Here for meetings and business stuff, we spent all morning zipping around LA in his rad rental car. I think a yellow Fiat is the way to go. It screams HAPPY DAYS. xo




Gross polluted LA skyline, in an otherwise very lovely morning.
