Homecoming!

My daughters' high school had their homecoming, the theme for the seniors was the '90's, their float won the float contest and their group won the spirit contest too!! Other themes for the classes were the 50's, 70's, and 80's. It was a lot of fun photographing the parade.

Saturday Sept 13 - Portfolio Building Workshop

I attended my first photography workshop in Sacramento coordinated by Mark Behrens, it was a "Build your Portfolio" workshop, we got to work with Models, Seniors, Families , and children. It was a lot of fun!

In Loving Memory of a Classmate

A dear classmate of mine from High School (Yokota) passed away on August 29th, I had known him for over 30 years, our fathers worked together, and retired in the same town. Today we had a memorial service for him and this is a little something I put together in a nice frame for the service. Just a nice picture of him and some sentiments sent from other classmates. I think it came out nicely. If you click on the picture it will enlarge it.

These shots were taken with my nifty fifty (50mm f1.8) I love this lens!
