Jac & WP, never was there a more perfect couple, than you add your kids. A dream come true!! I think this was our 3rd or 4th shoot & I love it the best. Although, that photo of Carolyn that I put on my business cards is amazing, one of my favorite all time images. I absolutely love spending time w/ you & your family. Thanks so much for the chat the other night. I swear I was just dropping by & I didn't leave until after mid-night. So fun to chat, you really could be no more amazing!! You inspire me in so many ways. Love your guts!!

Red topper & Cali

I had the time of my life in Cali. I haven't been on vacation since beginning of last fall. Even over Christmas break I did 4 shoots while in St. George. I literally got teared up on the plane flying out. Here's a quick rundown... 1/2 day of the spa, Drag queen BINGO & Hamburger Marys & A.I on Tivo, sleeping in, In-&-Out mmmm, Getty Villas, saw a wild dolphin from the balcony of Duke's restaurant in Malibu, 2 lifetime movies, smutty novel on the beach, tanning salon (Greta came out to the beach w/ me on my second day on the beach, she wrapped herself in blanket trying to avoid the wind, she finally looked at me with puppy dog eyes and said - "if we can leave I'll take you to the tanning salon & buy you whatever you want!". I said "I was hoping you would say that!"), 5.5 hour movie theater extravaganza, 2 trips to El Pollo Loco, mani/pedi, shopping at the prominod, Sprinkles cupcakes in Beverly hills, 2 birthday dins at some serious delic restaurants, birthday cake for breakfast & last but not least lots of girl talk & giggling with my Best Friend!! Love you Greta!!

These were taken at the Hidden Restaurant in Venice taken on Greta's camera, I've got more photos on my iphone but for the life of me can't find my cord to upload them. Good Gad that's frustrating looking for things. Enjoy these & I imagine I'll be loading a few more on FB.

I just love this family!!

What a delight it was to take your photos. Thanks so much for being so flexible & changing the location at the last minute. I think it turned out PERFECT!!

Many of you will recognize the family in the next photo from that killer family picture on the red couch in the field I took in the fall. Can you believe how big Syd has gotten? Man All Mighty they grow up so fast.

Henri's Senior Portraits

{Photo By Emilie Antique Azure Action}

Henri, you must go look up Josh Groban. Seriously, I think you look more like him in pix than in real life. Maybe just listen to a song or 2 for me. It might not be the hippest music, but if you played it in the car on a date you'd be assured a goodnight kiss. I'm just saying!! When you're a big time animator I want you to animate me dancing for my side bar on my blog - how cool would that be :) Thanks so much, I had a genuinely great time with you. Enjoy your pix!!
