Anika & Luke Engagement Part 2

Hello!!! I just got back last night from WPPI and learned so much. The afternoon before I left for WPPI I photographed the second part of Anika and Luke’s engagement session. It had been nice weather for about a week or so and then the day before and during the session it was super cold and snowed. That’s all right though they were troopers and it made for some crazy cool photos. I think that shooting in bad weather creates great drama for the photos. I can’t wait to shoot Anika and Luke’s wedding this June up here in Tahoe. It’s going to be a blast!!!! Click here to view the slideshow.

Photo Fun Around The Capital

So last Sunday while down in Sac Christine and I went on a photo field trip to the California state capital. I think it’s good for me to go out and have some fun shooting just random stuff once in a while. It forces me to be creative which in the end helps me in my wedding and portrait work. So here are some of the photos that I took and some of Christine’s photos too.



I love this shot!! I shot this from my hip, so they wouldn't know that I was taking their photo. I shot this with my tilt shift lens, so I was just amazed that it actually came out!!

Some of the crazy things you see around the capital. Someone brought this photo to this bench and ripped it up. I just placed it how I liked it and took this photo.









A photo of Christine taking a photo. The bottom picture is what she is shooting in this photo.

These two photos are Christine's that I worked for her in photoshop.


More crazy stuff that you see around the capital.

Powder Fun With Old Friends

At the end of February some of my friends from So Cal and Nor Cal came to visit the snow and me. It didn’t snow that much in February, but they hit it right and showed up the same day as a big storm hit Tahoe. We ended up getting 4-6 ft during a three-day period. We had so much fun building a jump in the storm and coming back three days later to hit it again in the sun. I was so stoked about learning how to do 360’s again and landed one on my first try. So here are some photos of the fun in the powder.








Thanking the Powder Gods for all the snow!!!

Avalon's 2nd Session

While I was down at my cousin’s house I was also able to photograph Avalon for her 2nd session for her year in the life session. The last time I photographed Avalon she was only 9 days old and now she is almost 2 ½ months. She is so big now and is still one of the cutest babies around. Avalon is one of the mellowest babies I’ve seen to date, which is good for my cousin, since they have Waylon running around. It’s crazy to think that she might be crawling around the next time I’m back to photograph her. Click here for the slideshow.
