In the canyon [San Diego Family Photographer]
I had the privilege of photographing my favorite little guy and his family today. We headed to a beautiful canyon here in San Diego. I love the grass, trails and old trees there. It makes for such lovely textures! Keep an eye out in the next few months to see more from these guys...Mom is pregnant with a baby girl! If she's anything like her big brother, she's going to be one beautiful little model ;-).

Merry Christmas & Happy New Year [San Diego Photographer]
Wow...I didn't realize how I have neglected my blog until Mom told me the other day :). So this is my attempt to bring you all up to date with everything.
Where to begin? I guess I should start with the most asked question...Why am I not shooting much anymore? Am I still working? The short answer...Yes! I'm still here and in business. The long answer is a little more complicated, but here goes. It's all Hannah's fault!! Just kidding ;-). Actually, Hannah had been asking me for several years if I could "just sign her up for the Disney channel." I kept trying to explain to her that it doesn't quite work that way. However, after some wonderful contacts with a few different people, things fell in place for her to start doing auditions up in LA for commercials and ad work. So the past few months we have been going up to LA two to three times a week for her to do auditions and call backs. So far she hasn't booked anything...although she did get put on avail for one project :). We're keeping our fingers crossed that she'll do well because this has been her dream for a long time now.
So Yes...I'm still shooting however with the unpredictable nature of her adventures, I can't book sessions in advance. In an attempt to keep shooting, I'm posting on my facebook page any days that I'm available for last minute sessions. I know...it's not the best, but I'm doing these sessions for free!! I'm also going to be offering digital images, and I hope that makes up for it! So if you want a session with me...email me to let me know the days that work well for you. Then, I can work with you to make that happen!
Now that that's out of the way...Merry Christmas! I can't believe it's already come and gone. Oh wait...Did I ever say Happy Thanksgiving? We spent Thanksgiving in Texas, and when we got back home Christmas seemed just to fly by. I LOVE Christmas so much! Such a magical time. Both the kids say that it's their favorite holiday now, too! I guess all the Pandora Christmas music really got to them :). Anyhow...Here are a few images of my family. It's scary how fast they are growing up! The kids are 9 & 7, and I have gray hair!! Oh my goodness...why can't I find the pause button on life?!
And Happy New Year! Our family went through a lot of ups and downs this year. And in the end, God always brought us out on top and with a renewed faith. We made it through our first deployment. It was tough at the time, but it really strengthened our family. Through it all we've made some beautiful friendships that are truly providential. It has been such a blessing to be able to see God's hand at work in our lives this year, and it makes me excited to see what the future holds.
