Paul's birthday present

Paul and Greg are two very nice people who I had the privilege of photographing at the beach. Greg wanted to give Paul something different for his birthday so he got him a portrait sitting. The three of us met at Oxnard beach and commenced to making beautiful photographs. The two of them were great to work with and seemed to enjoy themselves. I love it when the people I am photographing have a happy and enjoyable experience.

Tina and Brians Engagement in San Francisco

Brian is a long time friend of ours, and Tina is quickly becoming one as well. Kate and I rode up to San Francisco to photograph them for their engagement session. It was really really fun. Tina and Brian had already picked out a few places around the city where they wanted to be photographed, the two below are from the ocean side of the Golden Gate Bridge. I will be photographing their wedding in Arkansas this September. We are all from the south so it will be nice to see some familiar places. San Fran is a wonderful place to photograph, there are so many places to choose from it was almost overwhelming. Good luck to both of them and we will see you in September.

Carol and her girls

Carol, her girls, and I went over to Oxnard beach and had a wonderful time making beautiful photographs. It was a windy and some what chilly day at the beach but we made it seem like it was a perfect day, it didn't hurt that they were excited about the photo shoot. I had a wonderful time photographing them and would do it again at any time.

Luana and Jeff's Engagement photographs

Luana and Jeff's Engagement session was absolutely wonderful. We went to the Faulkner Ranch on a beautiful day and made some amazing photographs together. Jeff's mother Sheri has connections at the ranch so we pretty much had the run of the place. The interiors of the house were as great as the exteriors. Luana and Jeff are a lot of fun to work with so I am really looking forward to the wedding in June.

Engagement Session in Santa Paula

Today I get to spend the afternoon with two wonderful people, Luana and Jeff. They are getting married this year in June so this afternoon we are doing an engagement shoot. The place we are going to is the Faulkner Farm in Santa Paula, CA. On the property is a big red barn and a Queen Anne style home, built in 1894. I encourage anyone who has never been there to go and take a look. Luana and Jeff are a fun couple so this afternoon should be exciting. I will post the outcome of the photo session in a couple of days, heres hoping I can figure out how to keep the photographs looking good when they are posted.

Kensington Foundation Photographs

The event went off without a hitch, there were about 23 groups participating and next year they are thinking that even more will participate. The wonderful thing about events like this is everyone is always so happy and excited to be there. They are at the event to have a good time, but most importantly they are there to help a worth cause. Here are a few of the people who participated in the event, from some of the photographs you can see they had a wonderful time.

Kates Radio Interview

Kate did a radio show today, she was marvelous and Fabulous to quote Billy Crystal. She was on the same radio program that I had been on a few weeks prior. We will have a link to the interview up as soon as its available. The host, Jack Warren, talked to her about what charities we work with, how we work with them, and how other photographers can do the same. I can't say enough about what a good job she did, and how proud of her I am. When its posted take a listen, you can learn more about how we operate and what one of the core missions for our photography business.
