Here’s a little tribute to all my clients of 2008. I had such a phenomenal year and am so excited for 2009. Thank you to each and every one of you for choosing me to capture your families… just as they are:)
Scroll down a little, wait for it to load and Enjoy!

We have been out of town for the last week and just got back Saturday night. We headed up to Santa Cruz to visit my sisters for Thanksgiving and had a pretty great time:) I had little to no cell phone reception because we were actually in Bonny Doone in the mountains. Lots to catch up on. Lots of sneak peeks coming soon.
Here is a picture of my sisters, Tiffany and Nicole, Nicole’s baby, Willa and my boys, Tucker and Dallon… picking fallen acorns for our acorn flour cookies.


I love changing photos in photoshop. It’s one of my favorite things to do. I just think it’s so amazing that you can take an ordinary photo and make it spectacular in photoshop with some tweaks and actions. I love taking pictures but I love love love downloading them and bumping color and changing the contrast and brightening…. it’s so entertaining.
I haven’t really done anything to any photos that’s different than just color correcting in months. Photoshop skills need exercise or they become rusty. I was just thinking about this while I was putting off going to bed and looking at wedding photographer blogs and seeing all of their alternative processing of images. I plan to do more of this…. things are aligning (like kids in school and some structure).
I just picked a folder of photos from the summer and found an image that I haven’t done anything with … a forgotten image. The straight out of camera images is ok. But I love how it is transformed.
