Life // Christmas Tree Bonfire 2014

Spring is right around the corner (okay, here in LA it definitely feels like summer), so I figured I should post some photos from my friends’ annual Christmas Tree Bonfire before winter is completely over! Last year we put a lot of effort into making this event a full lifestyle photo shoot, so this year we kept it super simple. I arrived close to sundown and enjoyed the party without using my camera much at all. Jeff, Paul, and George collected the trees as always, we had a huge group to celebrate, and Mike and Nikki sang us songs around the fire. It was a blissful night, and the perfect way to kick off a new year!

A big thanks to Jen for capturing some photos of Mike and I!
Mike came up with this photo idea and dragged the tree into the sea. Teamwork!
