“Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, 'Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous?' Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It's not just in some of us; it's in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.” - Marianne Williamson #fullmooninaries #quotes #mariannewilliamson #archesnationalpark #findyourpark
“I felt my lungs inflate with the onrush of scenery—air, mountains, trees, people. I thought, "This is what it is to be happy.” - Sylvia Plath #shareslo #calpolyslo #slocal #happiness #picsonpeaks
Friends... Im excited! ☀️ I’ve been building something... A private library of my images, to be exact, spanning the years. 💛 They will be available for sale - for both license & print. It’s been a dream a long time coming, and I’m looking forward to sharing this collection with you super duper soon. 💛 #privatestocklibrary #photography #brittanyapp
“It's a funny thing about life, once you begin to take note of the things you are grateful for, you begin to lose sight of the things that you lack.” - Germany Kent #grandcanyon #findyourpark #germanykent #quotes
“I take pleasure in my transformations. I look quiet and consistent, but few know how many women there are in me.” - Anais Nin
“Each friend represents a world in us, a world possibly not born until they arrive, and it is only by this meeting that a new world is born.” - Anais Nin Grateful for this friendship that has, quite literally, spanned a lifetime. Grateful for the worlds it continues to open up in me. Grateful for YOU, Justin. You have been there, always. Steady. What a treasure. Thank you thank you thank you . 🙏🏻💙 #gratitude #quotes #anaisnin #bestiessince5thgrade #berkeley
“We come into the world as wild things and go out the same way, no matter how many boxes of lead or concrete we sheath about our bones (and the faster we consume the resources that eons of creative wildness have left us, the faster will the wild forces of deterioration pull us down). So it is not enough to look back and admire wildness as our heritage, we must look forward to it as well.” - David Rains Wallace #davidrainswallace #quotes #wildness 💛
The first Sandhill Cranes have arrived in Lodi. Pictured here, on Brack Tract, they are feasting on recently harvested rice fields. The Wetlands Preservation Foundation, Canal Ranch, and Del Rio Farms work together to provide food & habitat for the migratory waterfowl, partly by leaving 5% of their rice unharvested in the field. The cranes love it.... they dance & sing & eat & socialize. It’s an incredible celebration to witness. My heart beats loudly for this project - I’ve been documenting two commercial farming operations and a habitat restoration project in the California Delta - they are working together to restore habitat for the birds, protect the sensitive peat soils of the area, and grow food. It’s pretty amazing. 💚 I’ll be back to spend more time with these beauties in early November. 🙏🏻💙 Somebody pinch me. #wildlifefriendlyagriculture #lodi #sandhillcranes #waterfowl #riceharvest #habitatrestoration #californiadelta #cagrown #agriculture
Honored to be back up in Lodi, with my super rad #notyournormalfilmcrew , working on a short doc about wildlife-friendly agriculture and habitat-restoration in the California Delta. This is shoot 6 of 6. It’s been a wild & epic ride. I am so totally grateful. 💛 #grateful #californiadelta #lodi #migratorywaterfowl #sandhillcrane #womeninfilm #documentaryfilm

“...climate health depends on the health of local ecosystems everywhere. The health of local ecosystems, in turn, depends on the health of the water cycle, and the health of the water cycle depends on the soil and the forests.” - @charles_eisenstein That right there, my friends, synchronistically, is what I’m exploring in my film, “Where There Once Was Water.” Final edits are underway. I’m very much looking forward to sharing this journey with you on the big screen. Stay tuned for updates. 💙💦 #charleseisenstein #climateanewstory #wherethereoncewaswater #documentaryfilm #womeninfilm #californiawater #waterislife
Friends, loves, colleagues, comrades... it’s that time of year.... 📸 I’ll soon be opening up a couple of dates for mini-sessions... one in October and one in November (just in time for holiday photos 😉😉). All 💵💵 raised will go directly towards final production expenses for “Where There Once Was Water”. Wheee! Mini portrait sessions will be in SLO County. Raise your hand if you’re interested! 👋 #wherethereoncewaswater #documentaryfilm #womeninfilm #miniportraitsessions #shareslo
