I got a chance to play with AC's new baby today, the Canon 30D. Great camera, solid feel, and faaast with a huge screen. He's been wanting it for a long time now and he already had his first shoot at the Huntington Library today with a young family for some holiday photos. Poor guy post processed hundreds of shots - but he's fast! I was planning on tagging along and taking some pics but we ended up meeting for dinner, where I got this whopping migrane headache :( This shot of Ann and Johnny (check out his blog's link on the right) was taken by me messing around with the camera - I even helped out with a little processing for coolness.

Photo of the week

This is one of my favorite photos I took at the Ritz just after sunset. I liked it so much I'm including a wallpaper size res 1024x768. I'm not going to post a photo of the week every week but this one is niiiice. Hii fiii.

Martina and Steve

I met this cute engaged couple, Steve and Martina, at the Ritz. I was waiting for Susy and Kris (who missed the sunset), and I couldn't let the perfect lighting conditions go to waste - lucky for me, this photogenic pair passed by. By the time Kris and Susy arrived, the fog was rolling in so we ended up taking mostly indoor shots. I came back the next day and got most of the pics from my previous post. Happy Thanksgiving!

Kris and Susy @ Ritz Carlton Dana Point

Here are some of my favorite photos of Kris and Susy's shoot at the Ritz for Susy's 30th birthday. It was a fun two days and I've learned that I should bring a pen and paper and a towel to every shoot -- oh, and my tripod sucks. Enyoy! :)

Ritz-Carlton Dana Point

I spent the day shooting Kris and Susy on Susy's 30th Birthday (Happy Birthday!!) getaway at the Ritz in Dana Point. I'll post some pics of the couple very shortly and this other couple I met there Steve and Martina (once I get permission). But these are some details I caught throughout the day.

Halloween 06

They were playing this game where mini powdered donuts were eaten off a string without using their hands. They had to eat the entire donut or it doesn't count - you wouldn't believe the amount of donuts eaten. Hilarity ensued.

My first post...meet Silas.

Coming soon...
