Josh is a Senior from El Dorado High School and a very good friends son. Josh is enrolled in the ROP Fire Fighter class through the Central Sierra ROP. We did these on location at the Fire House in Pollock Pines, Ca. Good Luck Josh...
This past weekend, we did our semi annual pilgrimage to Bodega Bay. This is a beautiful little hamlet along the Sonoma Coast of Calif. We generally bring clients here to shoot on the beach and the weather was awesome...a bit on the breezy side, but nice. The town has changed alot from when Alfred Hitchcock based the story and filmed "The Birds" here in the 60's. Actually, the town isn't much bigger, just different.
This weekend, we met Kat and Alex there to do their e session. They are getting married in July, and since we are doing the wedding, we did the engagement setting. I have known Kat for quite a few years and Alex is a perfect fit.
Yesterday afternoon, we had the opportunity to photograph Lisa. Great gal and funny. We photographed her exclusively with Natural light...no flash at all. We photographed some in the studio and some at a local park...Thanks Lisa. Hope you enjoy them...
We had sooooo much fun with this wedding. It is our youngest son and his new bride. Jennilee is from San Diego, so we drove down there this past weekend. What a great couple that really know how to have fun. They will be making their new home in Provo Ut, while she finishes college. We wish them the best of luck and love....
