Virginia Vo Photography bio picture

Welcome to my Blog!

I graduated in 2005 with a bachelor’s degree in history from UCLA – Go Bruins! Enrolling in the summer, study abroad program in Paris was unquestionably the most memorable experience I had while in college.  All the places I visited in the City of Love, took my breath away.    


Photography is part of history.  We take pictures so that we can preserve and relive the past.  Unless you have discovered the much sought after Fountain of Youth, then you’re probably like me – a person who believes that life is too short…  My favorite professor once said, “I am not sure what else is beyond this but what I do know is that life is all about memories; we need to remember and capture all of the unforgettable memories that makes us who we are today.”  This one liner hit me like an anvil because for someone with a two second memory, these unforgettable memories become forgettable rather quickly.  So it’s important that we capture the essence of time. How can we do this?  Uh ha!  You guessed it.  Yes, the solution is to take lots of pictures!  Not just ordinary pictures, but pictures instilled with life.   


Aside from spending time snapping away with my camera to capture the beauty of idyllic moments and seeing life in different perspectives behind various lenses, in my spare time, I enjoy sketching, scrap booking, traveling, playing scrabble, watching movies, bike riding, camping, eating at new restaurants, snowboarding, and hanging out with my hubby, family, and friends.  


Random fact:  Those who know me, know that my appetite for trying new food is insatiable.  I would try anything, yes ANYTHING if it’s edible, not just once but twice.  Throw me on Fear Factor and I guarantee, I’ll take the exotic eating challenge course!   


This is my domain to share my photos, thoughts, updates and parts of my life!  Let me provide you with a personal and one-of-a kind experience resulting in creative images that encapsulates the joy and beauty of your special moments.  If you like what you see, please feel free to leave a comment or contact me.

Canada: Whistler and Vancouver!

We just got back from a wonderful winter vacation celebrating Brian’s early 30th B-Day in Canada!  Our mini vacation lasted for 5 nights and 6 days leaving us yearning for more time in the beautiful snow village of Whistler and the hustle and bustle city of Vancouver!  It was quite an unforgettable and irreplaceable experience especially knowing that we were snowboarding down the slopes where the 2010 Winter Olympics will take place. Nevertheless…GO USA!!! :)

Here is a picture taken by an Aussie in front of our hotel in Whistler.  Yes…surprisingly there were more Aussies than Canadians in Whistler!  And boy are they tall and mighty yummy! hehe :p

This was taken from the balcony of our hotel on Robson Street in Vancouver.  Although there are no people visibly depicted in this photo, believe me when I tell you that Vancouver is the Hong Kong of the West.  Conclusion of Canada?  Canada is a true cultural mosaic.
