Christmas in Cozumel

Posted on December 31, 2007

Lindsay and I traveled down to Cozumel, Mexico to meet up with her family for Christmas. I haven’t taken a relaxing vacation in years and it was so nice. We lounged by the pool, lounged by the beach, I read a 500 page book, the first in a trilogy that I couldn’t put down (A Voice in the Wind), and I went scuba diving for the first time. Such a fun trip and wanted to share some photos:

Here’s one of our many insane sunsets:

     And our hotel on Christmas Eve:
     We went fishing and snorkeling one day and this is one of my favorite photos of the two of us:

    We got a little digi cam for Christmas and put that thing to use!       We took some ATVs and explored some Mayan caves. This is Lindsay standing under a well. I thought it was cool.
     Clouds are probably my favorite things and we have so few clouds in Southern California
Check these out:
     And one last sunset for you:

Baby Kai

Posted on December 15, 2007

So sometimes you run across some cute babies and then sometimes you run across some CUTE babies. Little Kai is CUTE. Check out those big eyes!

    
I think this was his first trip to the beach, so we strolled around shooting photos as he stared at all of his new surroundings. I love this shot of Dad carrying his little boy…
              
Getting a lift from Mom. Not a bad deal..
   

The Bachelor Party

Posted on December 13, 2007

So one of my best friends is getting married this January and last weekend, we traveled up above Santa Barbara to do some camping and surfing. It was such an amazing trip and a killer way to do a bachelor party. You get a crew of your closest friends, camp where no one else is around, play all sorts of boce ball and horse shoes then surf your brains out. It was freezing at night with gale force winds but check out these sunsets we got!

Night #1

    
The Crew (1st part of it at least)
    
Some extreme boce
    
And night #2
   

The Olson Family

Posted on December 9, 2007

We’re not talking the Olson twins but pretty close. These are two cute little kids. So happy and smiley and two brothers that get along so well. I’ve gotten lucky with the kids I shoot. Not only are they cute, but almost all are a blast to shoot…We grabbed some photos at a little park and then headed down to the beach. Here are a few favorites from the day…
Remember when you were a kid and anything could have the time of your life throwing leaves around. Nothing was more fun in this moment!

      We played some baseball
      There is something about fall light that is a bit more golden than other times of the year.
      Mom and Charlie just having a blast!
      How beautiful was the light just before sunset?
      Then there’s Mom and Dad. So sweet and so good with their kids…
   

The Pliha Twins

These boys cracked me up during our whole shoot. They loved the camera and could barely get a shot of them without making faces at me…We did get some cute ones though. Here they are:

     
How is this face!
     
We went upstairs to play with their toys and I convinced Aiden sit down and start reading. How cute are they reading together!
     
And they they whipped out their guitars and started jamming for me..I love this shot.
     
The boys were little monkeys over at the park. Both parents had to keep a good eye out because as soon as they looked away, one of the kids was upside down or jumping off something. This is a fun shot…
   

Greg and Tara’s Wedding ::: South Shores Church

Posted on December 3, 2007

I was lucky enough to shoot the wedding of two of my good friends. Greg was actually my roommate two different occasions and have known Tara just as long. Their ceremony was at South Shores Church and absolutelygorgeous. The reception was at the Pavilion on the Peninsula and a blast. Such a fun crowd and an amazing looking bride and groom. Tami Jacobson coordinated the wedding and did a marvelous job. I put together a slideshow for you all to see….let me know what you think.

And here’s the Slideshow. Just click on the center:
