Balboa Park Summer Concert Series with Gratuitous Floral Shot


Florabella spent a beautiful summer evening in Balboa Park climbing trees, feeding koi, visiting museums and listening to Big Band Swing. Adored watching the golden guys and gals dancing away in the pavilion. So much to see and do and love about San Diego. We are so grateful to be a part of this beautiful, vibrant city.

Survey Select


Florabella proudly supports art in our community. Check out Survey Select at the old Wonder Bread factory at 14th and Imperial. Mark Murphy and the visionary team at Bells and Whistles transformed this awesome warehouse space into a veritable art gallery. The work on display is compelling and inspiring. Check it out!

Also to come: Better photographs that show the actual space or event we attend versus macro closeups of our shiny mugs. We'll see about that. p.s. That's my brother, Ryan. Hi Ry!

Robin and the 7 Hoods


You Must See This Show!

Florabella Commands You!


Here we are with another close up head shot of me and Jen requiring explanation of where we are and what we're doing - professional photogs we are not. Saw the World Premiere of Robin and the 7 Hoods at The Old Globe last night - Astounding! Superb! Delightful! Incredible! We loved, loved, loved this show!!! Left the theater with grin aches from two plus hours of non-stop smiling. Front row seats had us in the sights of Little John who I Swear was flirting with us. That's probably just wishful thinking. Isn't it fun to fall in fake love for a couple hours at the theater? Robbo, Little John, Marian and Alana - We will love you forever!

Trolley Barn Park - Summer Concert







Another wonderful evening spent at our local community park. Music, friends, covert libations and kids, kids, kids (!!!) running around like it's summertime and they have their whole lives ahead of them. University Heights - We love you. And a very special Happy Birthday to Miss Lily Billy - can't imagine this world without you.

Happy Summer

Loews Coronado Bay Resort

Sea-Foam


A fleck of foam on the shining sand,
Left by the ebbing sea,
But richer than man may understand
In magic and mystery--
Transient bubbles rainbow-bright,
Myriad-hued and strange,
Tremble and throb in the noonday light,
Flower and flush and change.

A million tides have come and gone,
Great gales of autumn and spring,
A million summoning moons have shone
To bring to birth this thing--
A foam-fleck left on the ribbed wet sand
By the wave of an outgoing sea,
With all the colour of Faeryland,
Wonder and mystery.

Teresa Hooley (1888-1973)
