Emily Morris Headshots

a beautiful sunny thursday day

This morning I woke up with a smile on my face. I jumped in the shower, dried myself off and threw on some old clothes off the floor. Capping myself with my favorite red St. Louis Cardinals hat and popping in my earphones I headed off for some Starbucks. Simon and Garfunkel accompanied me as I made the short walk across the street and got my chia latte. "The Only Living Boy in New York", you may recognize if you've seen Garden State played in my ears as the perfect weather made every flip flop better. There are two lines from that song that fit today:

"I get the news I need on the weather report",
and
"I've got nothing to do today but smile".

I've got a lot more to do today than smile though. I've been accepted to blog "professionally" for a hotel company in Los Angeles, contacted to do photo essays for a world wide contemporary art magazine, I have an interview with a wedding company in Thousand Oaks and my book - Along For The Ride finally came in last night! After weeks of "what the hell am i doing?" I still have that feeling but I have the illusion that I have more direction. Things are on the verge of happening (if they aren't already) and as long as I put forth the effort and do my best I can be a successful photographer here in the big city.

My good friends Keegan and Cat are coming into town tonight too, so today is full of positive energy.

Have a good one, I'll catch ya later.

peace,

Lisa G.

My beautiful neighbor Lisa. Many different looks in an impromptu photo shoot this afternoon.

Shipped!

According to the official website my book is being shipped to my apartment! This is great news!
The picture above is from the Jazz Bakery, a place Anton and I ventured out to this weekend. Good jazz, good people, good times.

Have a good week!

2nd Saturday in row

For the second Saturday in a row I and a beautiful blonde friend of mine traveled down to Malibu where we stumbled upon (for the second week in a row) our own private beach! But this is after seeing Pierce Brosnan in the Starbucks before hand! That's right, 007 baby.

But in other news - the book has been ordered and should be showing up at my doorstep any moment. This is a presentation book, not the final copy. From here I will show it to Disney to see what they want to do. Fingers crossed they want to edit the crap out of it and publish it. We shall see.

Re site design. It sucks crack. We'll get it figured out one of these days.

Adios friends,
