LOS ANGELES – City of Angles

It is so easy to get caught up in running your photography business – You become the receptionist (answering emails & inquiries), administrators (tax, receipts, book-keeping, the marketing specialist (Don’t forget social media specialist), blogger, graphics designer (spending hours organizing your Lightroom catalog & editing images on Photoshop) — Oh, and don’t forget, taking pictures. So being a photographer, or perhaps a self-employed entrepreneur requires you to wear many hats. So it can easily become overwhelming. And how do I wear all these hats? Answer: Work/Life balance – First take care of yourself. If you are not investing and taking care of yourself, most likely you won’t be on your A-game with your clients, skill-sets, creativity, family, friends, and the list goes on….

So to make the long story short, I took a mini-vacation all to myself to the City of Angeles to get — inspired.

There’s really no better place in LA to get inspired, or simply get away from all the cars and smog then the Getty Museum. . Having been to Italy the past year and seen some of the finest art exhibition in Rome & Florence, I went in with a humbled expectation, to say the least. But boy was I ever wrong… I was inspired in every exhibitions at the Getty. Everything from the architectures, the selection and the diversity of the exhibitions just blew me away. My experience at the Getty Museum shake me out of my museum-induced stupor.
