Wedding - Romance In Lotus Land

Romance In Lotus Land

On the Friday before Christmas, I was asked to photograph the engagement of Jessica & Jeremy at a private garden estate in Montecito. It was about a mile from Oprah’s House, on 37 acres. The woman to created it years ago was a Polish actress and socialite Madame Ganna Walska, who, after divorcing 5 husbands, had enough wealth to create this beautiful garden estate. She named it Lotus Land and upon her death in 1984 donated it to the community. The couple who contacted me had connections, so instead of waiting through the months of advanced reservations, we were let in and had free reign on the place. Amazing place if you’re in the area. They’ve never hosted a wedding there, but of course a smile and a business card to the docent there might convince them otherwise. More from the engagement of Jeremy & Jessica on my FB Fan page. Last day off, so I intend to enjoy it with a nice long bike ride. Finally got Dylan to ride his bike without training wheels, so the $$$$$ I spent on Christmas could have been saved by just taking his training wheels off.
