10 on 10 Collaboration Project, Post 13

Since last year’s 10 on 10 highlighted Fourth of July, why not do it again this year? Traditionnnnn, tradition! (Yes, that’s a link to Fiddler on the Roof).

Last year we celebrated our nation’s birthday at our home in LA. This year, Anthony and I and a few other friends decided to take a mini vacation. We rented an adorable little cabin in an adorable little lake town called Green Valley Lake. Not only did we see the shortest 4th of July Parade in the world (true story, but due to camera issues I was unable to keep those photos), but we were also able to experience just about every weather/earthly related event. Friday included a hail storm, a thunder storm, and bright, sunny skies. Then Saturday morning was interrupted by an earthquake (yikes!), and then we saw the most beautiful sunset where the sky literally looked like it was on fire. It was probably on fire.

We had a hot tub, a lake, fresh fish, beer, Kyle, a million patriotic temporary tattoos, and all the Sharknado we could watch. It was the perfect weekend.

Well, today’s post officially marks a year of doing the 10 on 10 project with the other photographers all around the country!  Yay!

I’m happy to say that I have decided to continue doing the 10 on 10 post every month, as it keeps me motivated to do my own work.  Although, I’ll admit that I took lots of photos last month, nothing quite made the cut for today’s post.  SO, I’m showing you some more photos from my trip abroad to Amsterdam, Paris, and London.

Take me back. Someone just take me back.

I can’t believe it has almost been a year of doing this project!

I’m going to be honest, I haven’t had much time last month to take personal photos. However, I have some exciting news!  As most of you know, in addition to shooting my own work, during the week I work at Oh Joy! where I wear many hats. One of those hats includes shooting a lot of content for the blog. Basically, it’s the best job ever because some days Joy says, “Casey, can you go get some doughnuts, and then take pictures of the doughnuts, and then we can eat the doughnuts?” Or other times it’s like, “Casey, can you come hang out with my adorable family and take photos for my baby announcement?”

Yeah, it’s a pretty great job.

What’s even greater is we are now in the thick of creating an Oh Joy book, and I’m getting the opportunity to take photos for it!  It’s pretty much the coolest/most daunting task I have ever had the privilege to be a part of.

So, this month’s 10-on-10 is dedicated to Oh Joy!, and includes 10 of my favorite photos I took for her blog last month.

I’m going to keep this month’s 10 on 10 short and sweet, because I’m about to leave on a plane in 20 minutes to head to Lindy and Jason‘s wedding!!

I found this super awesome manual Minolta 35mm camera in an antique shop in the desert back in January, and I have been steadily shooting with it since.  It has been to concerts, museums and last month I traveled to Amsterdam, France and London for business trip. I love this little world traveler.

Here are some of my favorite shots since I started developing the film.

Yesterday, Bash, Please hosted an amazing event called The Cream here in Los Angeles.  I was SO EXCITED to go to this event, and I kinda overdid it on the amount of cameras I brought.  But, since it fell on the 9th, I thought it would make a great 10 on 10 post.  Some of the best wedding blogs and vendors showcased their brands and talents, and I enjoyed eating, dancing, drinking, and chatting with all the brilliant and talented people that attended.  I will definitely be returning next year!

Better late than never, eh?

You guys, this past month has been so busy.  My head might explode, but in a good way (is that possible?).  This week alone, I  have both a wedding AND another engagement shoot to post, so prepare yourself for some Valentine’s Day eye candy.

Speaking of Valentine’s Day, this Friday is my anniversary with my boyfriend, Anthony.  We have been together 4 years now.  We’ve shared so many adventures together, some really amazing memories, parties, vacations, and nights out, as well as weathered extremely difficult times like losses of friends and family and jobs.  But we have survived both the good and bad together, which has helped so much.  Some days I honestly don’t know what I’d do without him (probably be living in my mom’s basement, crying myself to sleep every night to a bottle of wine and Tori Amos).

So in celebration of my wonderful boyf, this month’s 10 on 10 features our recent trip to Joshua Tree National Park in California and Sedona, AZ.

Happy anniversary, Anthony. I’m so grateful to have you in my life, a constant force of love, support, and encouragement.  You’re my very best friend.

This month’s post had a theme of “resolutions and reflections.”  When I think back on 2013, a few words come to mind: personal growth, creativity, ambition, and change.

As most people head into a new year, I think we can all agree that no matter what the resolution, the general idea around setting one is to try and better yourself from the year before.  The only way we can do that is to learn from the mistakes we made, and try and improve upon what we did right.

For this month’s 10-on-10, I have collected some my favorite photos I took in 2013, some of which have not been featured on my website yet.

Happy New Year, everyone.  I’m looking forward to 2014.

We are halfway there, folks.  It’s month 6 of our 10 on 10 collaboration and I’m super excited to share this one because I haven’t stopped thinking about this trip since I left.  Also, I have 12 photos because I cannot make decisions.

Thanks to my super awesome boyf and his equally awesome company, BRKLY, I got to tag along to the opening weekend of the Napa Valley Film Festival.  We had VIP all-access passes, saw approximately zero movies, went to what felt like 100 wine tastings, and easily ate 7 pounds cheese.  We stayed in a guest house on a gorgeous vineyard where we stayed up until all hours of the day and night playing hide and seek in the grapevines and eating fresh fruit plucked right off the branches.

Oh yeah, and I met a MINI HORSE which was definitely a highlight of the trip if not a highlight of my entire life (follow me on Instagram for visual proof).

Yeah, it was horrible and I never want to go back, ever.  JUST KIDDING, Y’ALL, IT WAS MEGA GOOD TIMEZ.

Happy upcoming holidays, everyone!  I hope they are as magical as mini horses and Napa Valley.

My boyfriend’s sister is in town this weekend, and we thought the perfect LA thing to do on Saturday was to go to the Silver Lake Farmer’s Market.  It’s not only filled with local produce and fresh food, but a great location for eclectic vintage clothes and jewelry.  The Silver Lake Art, Craft & Vintage flea market was also happening up the street, so it was a full morning full of thrifting fun, and a great excuse to get in a last-minute 10-on-10.

One of my favorite stands was the Looksy bus filled with both dog and human accessories.

We went home with new sunglasses, an Elvis t-shirt, some fresh goat cheese, and the most delicious sun-dried tomato garlic spread.  Not pictured: juicy blackberries that we already demolished (with our mouths).

Well it’s already the 10th again, and I seriously feel like I was slacking this month on personal photos.  This month there was a theme for this particular 10-on-10: Fall.  Now, I don’t know about where you live, but here in LA, Fall pretty much looks the same as every other day of the year.  Yesterday was actually the first time I felt a chill in the air and put on a sweater, and I was all YES I WILL GO OUT AND SHOOT A FALL THEME 10-ON-10! but then I didn’t because rain.  And also because my dog is warm and she was laying in my lap most of the day.

So here are some photos from one thing I did in the Fall, which has nothing to do with Fall other than the fact that it was September when this happened. (Fall activities still count as Fall-theme, right?)

Here are some of the grungy photos I took from a small concert I went to last month featuring one of my favorite bands, Shellshag.
