spent a few days last week down in ventura for the VJ Multimedia Workshop through the Brooks Institute of Photography. it was a lot of fun to get back in that workshop mentality again - pounding the pavement, reporting and editing on deadline, missing out on sleep, making new friends, and sharpening the skills that so quickly dull when you're not pushed by an editor for daily content.
here's the piece i put together. i met the Larimores at the Lemon Wood Mobile Home Community after previous story ideas fell through the cracks. Jo and Larry have been married for almost 60 years, and they were so open about letting me into their home and talking to me about the intimate aspects of their relationship. it was beautiful to interview them separately and hear them mirror each others' answers, to sit back as they finished each others' sentences, as they bantered and laughed and still remained so in love after all those years. so here's a small slice of their story.

Dude. There are some absolutely beautiful quotes in there. That made me happy. So thanks!
"Friend or enema?" Ha! Great couple, great piece. Warms the heart just right.
it's a beautiful piece, ariel, made even more special by the 'pounds of pavement' you worked to find them. it was great spending some quality PJ time with you in Ventura. keep pushing.
