Mesa Beaches

Santa Barbara/Goleta is mostly on a mesa.  To access the south coast line beaches you usually have to climb hundreds of steps or down a cliff side.  Thankfully most of the points of access are safe to navigate.  My fantastic and beautiful roommate Kiana and I went down one cloudy Friday afternoon and as soon as we got down there it became sunny.  The access point we went to had these really cool sandstone cliffs that you could sit on and look out at the ocean.  Kiana loves beaches, water and dresses so I wanted to photograph her down on a beach for my portfolio.  She is always down for experimenting and modeling in crazy situations.  She is always a lot of fun to work (and live) with and I love her to death.  We've known each other for a little more than a year and it is wonderful to be living with her again.  It's the two of us in a little apartment near the beach and it is so much fun being in the same home as her.  Now that I am in upper division at Brooks, Kiana and I are going to be going through the portraiture program at Brooks.  :)  I love you Kiana!!  Thanks for being the best roommate I could ask for.
