One of the best ways to maintain and gear up my creativity is to expeience new things visually. Travel encompasses all the senses. Which in turn resparks my creative process.
"What do you remember the most from Germany ?" She asked
"that coocoo bird ever morning at Cousin Iris's house " every morning this solitary bird would beckon me to arise shake off my jetlag and go out and experience the Countryside.
What will I experience next? What will I take back with me? A sight? A sound? A taste? A feeling?
I love travel the flying the adrenaline the arriving to a new place. All the travel I have been fortunate to experience engages my mind and allows me to spark my creativity.
A quiet moment on a Palm Springs evening.
Discussing a upcoming shoot with my Creative director in the desert air last evening. Allowing our minds to engage in some free thought ideals for our client. We scramble down a few notes to the makeup artist.
Then shoot the client a email engaging her ideals and letting her know we are constantly creating images for her shoot already in our creative process time.
Every part of the creative process is gift to me I can engage a part of my mind and spirit and then transpire a image of that moment to my subject.

As we exited the small plane into the turmac of the Palm Springs airport a stewardess said to us. " you were really having a great time I wanted to join you".
We had been engaging in a creative moment a game we had made out of pantomime and word description where we each took a turn at describing her boring escape and safety spiel into a show. You know life is short and every second I am humbled enough to laugh and enjoy it.
Cheers!
