Family Photo Shoot

I met Nancy when I was in high school and she was my art teacher. I was obsessed with that class and grateful for all her guidance throughout the years with art and design. She allowed her students the freedom we needed to explore different mediums and ideas.

This year we reconnected on Facebook and she asked me to shoot her family to update their family portraits. It was great seeing her again and meeting her whole family. They were all very nice and funny. The grandchildren were a hoot and sometimes children can be a challenge to shoot, but all of them were so cooperative. The youngest one was a hoot and you can see in the photo below. 

Lovely family. 

Shot with Canon 30D. 

Sip! Events Photo Shoot

A few weeks ago I was in Orange County and met up with my friend Crystal and her business partner Kelly to shoot them at a small winery in San Diego for them to use in future promotion materials. The winery was great because of how wide open it was which allowed a ton of natural lighting for us to use. With the owners being amazing, we were able to shoot at the bar and in the back by all the barrels.

Our second location was at a Sip! event which also had a vineyard in the back so we were able to capture two of them there as well.

It was a great photo shoot and they were so fun to work with. Gorgeous and smart ladies! Check their site out: http://sipeventsla.com  and keep them in mind for your next gathering.

Here are some of the photos. These were shot with Canon 30D and edited with Lightroom 4.
