Sisters

How fun to have three girls! Sisters that can grow up to be best friends, and I think these three will. Each one's different, but come from a truly loving and fun family these three are going to grow and blossom. And who doesn't love a baby that smiles THAT much. Hope to see you all soon!

Baby Nico

Baby Nico was born into a loving family October 22 2009.

Welcome to the world little one.

Andrea + Paul + baby belly

This was a fun shoot. So nice mix it up and have a little fun down at Balboa Park. I forget how beautiful and how many options there are for creativity.

The light was amazing down in this garden.

Comfort and security with eachother.

Grounded in life.

Zach at Rob Machado Surf Classic

I love making photos. Here's a few of Zach Ashton performing at Seaside Reef in Cardiff,CA.

Zach is an amazing American Singer-Songwriter artist who is uber famous in Brazil.

I love the t-shirt.

Dede + Milani + Baby

Some dear friends of my will be having their second baby soon, a baby boy. They're so excited and I wish them all my love as their family grows.

Summer at Eli Howard Surf School

I spent some time this summer down at the beach with the crew from Eli Howard Surf School. It's much different than doing portrait work, but fun none the less (who can complain about hangin' out in a bikini, toes in the sand, loving the sun!) They are an amazing group of people that are extremely good at what they do and are enthusiastic about it.

There are two locations to choose from during summer. The main location is settled at the San Elijo Campgrounds in Cardiff, CA (seen here above). The other is North Moonlight. Good Morning Moonlight!

Some surfers are beginning AND so cute!

Others sign up to tune their skills and enjoy the ocean and surfing.

There is so much beauty and peace to find at our beaches. So much to cherish, value and protect. I love that this is something Eli Howard feels is important to teach, along with surfing. You'll not only learn how to surf, you'll learn marine ecology and respect for our environment.

I had such a positive experience at Eli Howard and every parent and kid I talked to said the same. People come back year after year, it's the highlight of kids summers. They're just the best at what they do. At the end of the day, it's like you've been hangin' out with family. . . that is, totally cool family! I think I'm missing summer already.

See you at the beach!

Patrick & Becky

I'm so happy to know these two beautiful people! After so long these two found eachother and life seems complete. What a lucky pair to have found someone that brings out such smiles and laughter in eachother. Congratulations on your engagement!

Little sister Penelope

I love the name, and how cute is she! I think she might look like Dad! And, I can't not mention how stunning and sweet the rest of the family is. Good to see you all again.
