Bay Area Family Photographer // Bryce & Ella in harmony
Had the chance to shoot for my friends Scott & Erica from Napa the other day. It was an awesome shoot with their two hilarious kids, Bryce and Ella. Bryce is learning the piano and Ella is a violinist, hence the theme. Much thanks to Erica’s brain for wanting to be out-o’-the-box on this and do something really cool.
Along the way we also got a cow anatomy lesson from Bryce…. I’m just gonna leave it at that. :) Enjoy a few teasers.
PS – Almost forgot – some of these images were captured on my newest obsession: medium format film. It’s incredible, and it will be a part of what I do from now on. Awesomeness.
Noah, Tot & a turtle
My nephew Noah is one of the funniest kids ever. From the way he wears boots and diapers, to the Linus-like washcloth… no, not a blanket, a washcloth, to taking dips in the dogs’ waterbowl, to climbing inside his sister’s miniature dollhouse, to playing in the toilet, to dumping a bottle of powder all over the hardwood floors, to eating the dogs’ food… and the list goes on.
Anyway, got a chance to shoot him and big sis, Tater Tot (Taylor) a while ago. Lacy finally threatened me with mayhem if I didn’t get them edited for her – sorry, Lace! So since there was no way that kid was gonna sit still for pics, we rolled with it and ventured to the Nut Tree carousel, and then bought a turtle and went to the park to see what dude would do with it……. :D
Enjoy!












My wife – my mini-me’s
So my wife is always buggin’ me for pics of my own family… can you believe her nerve?? And I was supposed to do something really special for Valentine’s Day but got swamped and it didn’t happen… can you believe my nerve?? Anyway I had a rare weekend off, so we drove up to Ione, home of Preston castle and took some awesome pictures of mini-him & mini-her.
This location has some absolutely gorgeous light. The high ceilings and deteriorated interior (say that 5 times fast) just lend this drama and atmosphere that’s really beautiful. Enough of my etymological ineptitude, here are a few thousand words to describe it a little better. Enjoy.
Jael & Caleb – thanks for being so patient with Daddy
Dude’s a PIMP! Already has 5 ‘crushes’ at school. What does that mean??
One of my fav ‘tricks’ to catch a moment… tell him to hold on sec – he looks down – I take pic – he gets mad at me.
Love the light
His butt-chin comes from Chelsea’s side of the fambly – that’s no Mexicano thing.
My princess
Not sure when she learned to pose – but I’ll have to post some more of her ‘flow-posing’. Not sure if I’m happy or disturbed…
I think you can see me right there on her pinky
…
Happiness for now… but they soon tired of the posing.
I’m purty lucky. God be thanked for these two blessings.
