SF Adventure continued






These are the shots from the Crabhouse, the carousel at the pier, and our fun hat shots....check out Mom in the sassy, hot pink cowboy hat. Yee-haw!!!

SF Adventure






My cousin came to visit with her 2 kids (all grown up). They had never been to the West Coast or seen the Pacific Ocean...so, along with my Mom, we explored San Francisco. We went to Pier 39, saw the sea lions, went on a bay cruise around Alcatraz and under the Golden Gate Bridge. Then we had some crab at The Crabhouse (imagine that!) then tried on a bunch of silly hats at one of the Pier 39 shops. Later, we headed to Ghiradelli Square (yum) and the cashier was a very personable man....dressed as a woman, so they got the full-fledged SF experience! It was a fun day packed with good memories.

New York Wedding (continued...again)




New York Wedding (continued)





The New York Wedding






Here are some pix from the wedding I did this past weekend of the lovely Ryan and Melissa. The first picture is a little blurry, but it was taken by a guy up in the balcony and it shows me in action. The rest of the pix are mine - some romantic shots, group shots, and fun shots. I especially like the Secret Service shot with Melissa and the groomsmen. Matt had fun starting up a congo line and later getting dressed up with the other groomsmen as The Village People for a rousing rendition of "Y.M.C.A."

Lunch in New York!




Hard to believe that 24 hours ago I was on the west coast in Monterey...around midnight I was in Vegas...and today I had pizza next to the Empire State Building. I'm currently in Poughkeepsie, NY for a friend's wedding. I flew into Newark, NJ earlier to meet my friend Matt so we could share a rental car. Matt suggested we go grab lunch in New York City, so we went for an adventure. I've never driven in downtown Manhattan, but I have now! Cost us over 20 bucks to park for 2 hours and we made the most of our time. We went to the Empire State Building, had some great NY pizza, walked down to the New York Public Library, Rockefeller Plaza and Radio City Music Hall/NBC studios. We even saw Al's Soup Kitchen - the Soup Nazi from Seinfeld.

Pregnancy Portfolio Expands...





So it looks like I'm transitioning from a part time wedding photographer to a part time pregnancy/baby photographer. Here's another lovely couple, Ryan & Lina, in the last month of pregnancy. They're expecting a little girl...any day now! These are the "before" photos and the "after" shots should follow soon.
