Me and Poe




My best friend of 15 years...Poe my dog. Cloud9 Photography took these pictures of us. I just wanted to share Poe with you. I love her so much and she has been by my side ever since I was 15.

Pre Christmas Party



A very good client of mine had a Pre-Christmas Party for family and friends. She loves tropical design so I incorporated red ginger, white dendrobium orchids, gold ti leaves, cedar, snowy curly willow branches and matte red Christmas balls, my favorite.
She is so great to work with as she always gives me free reign to do whatever I want. She just calls me, tells me how many arrangements she needs and lets me take it form there. Thank you Mona!

Wrist Corsage


A custom wrist corsage for Lilliana's 30th Birthday. Her favorite colors are blue and purple. I love making these. Especially when I get to play with such great accents like the colored pearl headed pins and gems. Happy Birthday Girl!!! Can't wait to have tea!

Custom Designs by empora



The Tropical Easel was for a memorial service for a man who was very into tropical flowers. His resting pace is now in Hawaii.

A vase arrangement consisting of lavender tulips...just because his girlfriends favorite flower is lavender tulips.

Bursting colors using gerbera daisies and daisy mums...A friend of mine is in the hospital and I sent her these to brighten her room. Hope all is well with you!

Wedding of Ashley and Patrick 10/12/09






Simple and elegant. This wedding was a hidden treasure located in Palos Verdes Ca. called La Venta Inn. An extraordinary place to hold an intimate event or wedding. The entire staff here were so friendly and beyond helpful.

Ashley and Patrick were probably the most attractive couple I have ever seen. With just the simplicity of various glass cylinders with submerged dahlias, roses and rose petals accented with floating candles and votives was the perfect setting.

Congratulations you two!!! You were such a pleasure to work with. Much love and best wishes.

Flowers for Audi Cars at Anaheim Convention Center


This was a cool opportunity! Doing flowers for the Audi car booth at the Convention Center. I would say they have great taste in floral design. I loved this arrangement. Clean and simple but makes quite a statement.

Window Display at Empora


This is one of my favorite window displays. Using just all pink roses in various ways and using white fish gravel to create a fun design on my work bench. This was fun to make!!!
