Abizness Digital - Angie Joyce

Allow me to make an introduction please...

In brief: I'm a native Washingtonian that has lived in and traveled throughout the United States; as well as various destinations in North America, Australia, Europe, the Caribbean, and the Mediterranean. I am thankful to have a j-o-b as a Recruiter that helps me pay for two of my greatest passions: PHOTOGRAPHY & TRAVELING! ("Can I get an Amen, choir?")

Started Photography in a traditional fashion with a 35 mm camera & dark room training while in JR High. Over the years, my interest in technology drew me to the artistry of digital, while still being able to apply traditional methods of ISO settings & F-stops.

In between my trips, feel free to check out my other travel & local-to-Pacific Northwest images: www.AbiznessDigitalImages.com

Happy Traveling! ~A. Joyce

North America » United States » California » San Diego » La Jolla

kicking off our day in San Diego
We took a breif trip up to Cabrillo State Park to view the city, the light house, & Monument

We're in San Diego today!! Got up bright -n- early to head to San Diego from Palm Springs (Leaving behind 95 degrees for a cooler 72-ish temperature!) Took us close to 3 hours after coffee-breaks & a quick ATM stop... First place to visit? Cabrillo State Park @ Point Loma. There we could get a landscape view of the San Diego and it's coastline. We parked the HMV (hot-mama-vehicle), then walked the half-mile down the access road to explore the Light Station. The viewing area is comprised of the lighthouse and three original light keepers’ houses and outbuildings. The light [View Full Entry]

Posing @ Joshua Tree!

Wednesday, June 4th - Official Arrival It's 11:30am at the Palm Springs airport... do you know where your mini-van is??? Ok, so it took a bit of time to get the actual car; but it was S-w-e-e-t! (HMV = Hot Mama Vehicle!) We were able to eat a very messy burger at Carl's Jr's, check into the Condo, and be out pool-side by 2:30pm that afternoon! Wahoo! Let the adventures begin!! We managed to get up fairly early on Thursday, pack the car with PB&J sandwhiches and plenty of water, lather ourselves with TONS of suntan lotion, and head off 49 [View Full Entry]

Chicago! (no more business!)

North America » United States » Illinois » Chicago

Checking the map

By Thursday, the 24th, there was no more business to be had! Nicole, Kassie & I spent most of the day walking around southend districts of Chicago -- near Mag Mile, Wacker street, Milemim Park, Navy Pier, etc. We started off the day with an Architeture tour on the river. Very fascinating. It was 90 minutes of history lesson and architectural visuals! Down by Wacker, there was a camera crew set up filming a Candian Pilot called "Tower". We didn't really recognize any of the stars, but did have a lengthy chat with a 'local' about the neighborhoods, movie stars, and [View Full Entry]

Ready for FOOD!
Kassie & Nicole stroll the street

Day two of the convention came & went... we spent the morning at the Career Fair table, then doned the "on the green" shirts and worked the booth in the main exhibition hall. With sore feet & empty stomachs (we missed out on lunch to work the exhibition booth that day) we head back to the Hotel & changed. It was off to do something F-U-N!! Nicole joined up with us at this point -- she had been out & about checking the neighborhood out & taking pictures of the sights already! A little trick to share... one can go up [View Full Entry]

Areva Career Fair booth

Plane touched down around 11:30am Chicago time... my co-worker, Kassie, and I grabbed a ride to our Hotel downtown. Reserved rooms at a hotel right off the . Chicago boasts a population of nearly 3 million people... and is the 3rd largest city in the US. So there we were, two people in a sea of faces ready to take on the day! Our first journey was to McCormick place where the IEEE convention was taking place. There were literally hundreds of booths & ten times as many people in them or walking the Conference floors. We found Areva, the student [View Full Entry]

Debbie @ beach

Friday morning, a co-worker (Janna) & I head out to Harvey Mudd University in Claremont, CA for a Job Fair. The sun greeted us, but was still a bit chilly. The Santa Anna winds had been blowing up a storm a couple days before we arrived, so the skies were bright blue! After the job fair was over that afternoon, I drove north to Ventura . Traffic was already starting to get rather dicey @ 3:30pm, so e almost 2 hours to drive 95 miles up the series of hi-ways. The further north I traveled, nearing the ocean, the colder it [View Full Entry]

Biz travel - Spokane, WA

North America » United States » Washington » Spokane

Quick & dirty trip to Gonzaga University for a Job Fair. There were 3 of us that left bright & early for the hour trip over. Close to 19 inches of snow layered the ground before we arrived. Thank goodness the streets were easily managed. Spent the vast majority of our day inside the student gym amongst 80+ other exhibitors. Before leaving that day, we were invited by one of the professors to view the new simulation lab. Our plane left an an hour or so later than planned. Was glad to be home to the rain!

Haunted Fireplace

One last Trip of the year... Deb & I ventured out to New Orleans bright and early on Sunday morning to attend PowerGen. By the time we arrived, it was mid-afternoon and the sun was soon setting. The weather was unusually warm, so we took some time to settle into the hotel & then venture out in to the French Quarter - which turned out to be only a block away from the Hotel. For a Sunday night, I was suprised to see so many people walking around the streets. We managed to find a fun resturant (Red Fish Grill) to [View Full Entry]
