{ Out of Office | Palm Springs }

We’re smackdab in the middle of July, our busiest month of 2010, and it’s been a fun ride so far! I just got back from a quick SF trip for Deb & David’s amazing wedding and I’m heading out of the office again tomorrow morning, this time for play :) Looking forward to 3 whole days of swimming, laughing, lounging, eating, shopping, and margarita-ing, with some of the sweetest photographer ladies I know! I’ll be out of town until Wednesday evening and will be returning all emails then – really looking forward to this splash of relaxation so I can jump into the last part of July completely refreshed & rejuvenated!

I leave you with this little collage Ala put together for our trip, love it!

A bit belated, but some peeks into our trip to New York {to shoot this lovely wedding}!

We got the perfect non-touristy tour of the most awesome places, thanks to friends who have spent the past few years in the city. Wandering through Central Park, hunting down delicious gyros carts, visiting the coolest top secret speakeasy, experiences breathtaking city views from a stunning rooftop bar & friend’s apartment building, and food food FOOD… more of our adventures below!

I love this view from the top of the MET and how Central Park looks like a wide jungle in the middle of the city…

One of the things on the tippy top of my must-see list was Highline Park. It’s a park built on a former elevated railway, covered with greenery & providing a cool spot to sit and relax. I LOVE the concept & so wish we had one here, I’d go hang out there all the time with the perfect cup of tea…

Throughout our trip we got quite a few spectacular views of the city, but one of the best was probably from this apartment rooftop. There was such a relaxing setup and the views were crazy awesome – I already have a random affinity for rooftops, but would especially love to have one like this that I could just run up to anytime!

Got to meet up with the super sweet Punam Bean for lunch at Maison. Lots of delish food & great conversation!

On one of the evenings we visited Momofuku Milk Bar (just the name alone sounds scrumptious)! They have the most unique ice cream flavors – I got Cereal Milk which literally tastes exactly like the milk that remains after you gobble up all your cornflakes. The taste was so spot on, I kept expecting to crunch on a cornflake any second! Scott tried the zucchini bread and said it was so authentic it was practically buttery!

Thanks for reading, until next time! Even though I feel like we packed in lots of sights & sounds, I still feel like there was so much more I wanted to explore. Any NYC suggestions for the next time we go? :)

Scott and I are currently in New York prepping for a wedding this Saturday! We flew in earlier tonight, dropped off our stuff at the hotel, and strolled around outside, coming across this cozy late night gem where we refueled on French onion soup & bacon burgers. We’ll be here until Tuesday so email correspondence might be a bit sporadic until then, but be sure to follow us on Twitter to keep up with all our big city shenanigans!

I leave you with a quick photo from a recent photoshoot I did with some photographer friends at the beautiful Condor’s Nest Ranch. More to come soon {including some film}!
