A Photo Challenge - A Photo that has a Vintage Feel

I love my kids.  I know you have heard me say that time and time again.  And half this blog is pictures of them, but when you love your kids as much as I do and when they are willing to do just about anything for mommy to practice her photography skills. You just have to flaunt them.  I took this photo at the end of September when we went up to Sacramento, CA to be models for a photography workshop for Me Ra Koh.    Make sure to check out the other photos entered in the challenge also.

Cool Colors ♥ 9-27-11

I know it's been two weeks since I posted on the blog.  Sometimes life likes to put speed bumps in the way and sometimes it's the Grand Canyon.  I am now starting to climbing out of that canyon.
Thanks for being understanding.

Cool Colors ♥ 8-18-2011

Not long ago I started following a blog Photo Card Boutique and I just fell in LOVE with the cool color posts they do almost everyday.  After getting permission I am now going to share these with you also.  I just love the colors and it makes my imagination run with how I could use all of them in different places in my home & work.

W Family {Walnut Creek, CA - SF Bay Area} Photography

I had the pleasure of taking photos of the W family in the very last weeks of June.  This was really special to me as D is my son's science teacher and she means everything to him and to me.

Don't you just love the smile on her face. M didn't want to give mom a hug.  You know 18 year old boys.  Gee Whiz! mom leave me alone, but I just love the look on his and her face in this photo.
I love this photo of M.  He kept telling me he doesn't like getting his photo taken, but look at him.  BORN model and those eyes!!!!!

I love this one of D with her doggie.  He is an old fellow, but very much loved!!!

Thank you so much W Family for letting me take some very special photos.

Best Face Photo of May {I Heart Faces} SF Bay Area Photographer

This week's challenge at I Heart Faces is "Best Face Photo of May."  That is why I decided to finally post this much delayed photo, but life at the end of school seems to just get so busy that I have no time for anything but kid stuff. I did a quick photo shoot with my boys on Mother's Day and just fell in love with the following photo.  It really shows the love my boys have for each other no matter how much they fight.

This is a people's choice vote this week.  Wednesday is when the voting starts.  I'm # 256 so please come back and vote for me this week.

Right Now 5-9-11 {Walnut Creek, CA Photography} Kids Photography

It's that time of the week.  Willette Photography has a new link up for the Right Now documenting the right now. This is the 2nd week for me and so far I've been keeping the camera out and taking a lot more picture of the boys in the here and now.  Mother's Day was a down day for us.  Gabe has been running a bit of a fever all weekend and he just wasn't feeling his normal self.  And of course Kaleb needed to curl up with daddy.
Here it is Right Now...

Right Now 4-30-11 {Walnut Creek, CA Photography} Kids Photography

Willette Photography has started a new link up of documenting Right Now. And since I just love taking pictures of my kids, but sometimes it is way to not right in the moment I've decided to follow along. So here we go...

The kids were playing with the tops, but of course Kaleb had to stop big brother's from spinning. As you can see Gabe is none to happy, and it always seems the little guy wins in the end.  Hmm maybe we had better rethink that. Boys gotta love them.

Science Fair Only Comes Once A Year {Bay Area, CA Photographer}

Last week was the Science Fair over here.  Science is Gabe’s favorite subject and if he had a choice he would do it all day. This year Gabe and Dad put together a Soda Robug. He thought it was the coolest.  Of course the day gets busy with having to set up and then come home do homework…the little guy just didn’t make it very far.

Ice Cream...Your Friend??{SF Bay Area Photographer} Walnut Creek

Life is so hard when you are 3. 


Today at the park Kaleb was having the time of his life, until the sand becomes his worst enemy.  Ice cream and sand just do not mix.  How cannot give this face another ice cream?

(fyi he didn't get one until dessert)

Bubble Fun {Bay Area Children Photographer} Walnut Creek, CA

Bubbles are so much fun no matter what your age is.  I picked up my oldest from his after school science class and they were making bubbles.  Of course the little guy had to get involved.  Helmet and all he was busy making bubbles also.
