Susanna and Raddi

Susanna and Raddi were married on 5-19 in the beautiful San Ramon Valley. I've known Susanna for 10 plus years...her sister and family have been a huge part of my life.

It's always fun to see someone you've known since they were in Jr. High get married.

Susanna and Raddi are a delight to be around and it was wonderful to be a part of their wedding day.

BTW - The cake, was the best cake I've ever had...the butter cream was amazing.... City of D'Lights in San Ramon... http://www.cityofdlights.com/

yummy, yummy, yummy.

Here are the other vendors...in case you were wondering.

What I did on Wednesday Night!

My friend Brian is a firefighter in San Ramon...I've been wanting to capture him "working" for a long time...

Finally, he calls me and gets me to come to a live training burn on Wednesday night...Someone had donated their home to the fire department to burn for training.

We didn't get a really big fire with this one, but the next one I will...I'm kind of hooked now.

If you want to see some really truly great images of fires, you should visit Lucas Hirst's website www.lucas911.com . He is a firefighter with Brian and always has his camera there...just in case.

There will be more fires to come...so just keep watching for them.

Bobbi, Dave & Girls

My favorite red-headed little girls spent a few weeks with Grandma and Grandpa in San Diego while mom and dad were visiting England. (yes, I'm very jealous).

While we (the Whiting family) were down visiting with our family we popped over to the beach with Bobbi, Dave and the girls for a portrait session.

Cameron & Andrea

We cut this one close! Cameron and Andrea are getting married in TWO weeks!!! We had a wonderful evening at the beautiful Gardens at Heather Farms Park...and their cute-as-a-button daughter was my official clothes carrier for the evening. We did manage to sneak her into a few images too.

The wedding (in two weeks) will be at the Palm Event Center in Pleasanton...one of my favorite locations! Check back to view how beautiful Cameron and Andrea are for the wedding!

Megan & Milan

I had so much fun on this engagement session...it seemed like we had Golden Gate Park to ourselves! We visited the deYoung museum, the botanical gardens and then headed down to Baker Beach for sunset!

Justin

This is Justin's senior session...he was a very fun model! My goal with this modeling session was to find some fun new places...and try some new stuff.

Justin agreed to haul his bike out to the middle of nowhere for me!

Congrats on your upcoming graduation!
