Fesler Jr. High Winners - Santa Maria, CA.

Like I said before, Jr. High kids are easy to work with. They love being in front of the camera and it makes my job so much easier. These were 2 of the 5 winners from the day I spoke at Fesler Jr. High on Career Day. They wanted to incorporate basketball in their pictures, so we decided to just take them at their own school grounds. Good thing they were not wearing Celtic jerseys, who knows what I would have done with their photos. Hehe! This coming Friday I will be shooting one of the other 3 winners. I'm sure it will be just as fun!

Ashley Garcia - Santa Maria/Guadalupe, CA.

For her 8th grade graduation, Ashley came to me to take some pictures of her and her new Betsy Johnson graduation dress. I love working with these kids at this age because they are so much fun to work with. You can tell them basically anything and they will do it. It also helps when their mother (my cousin) Jennifer, who is also a diva, helped so much with the posing. Haha, just playing. But really its nice to see a mother and daughter so close to each other. Oh by the way, her father and I go way back, so high school boys you have no chance.








Jennifer showing her how to pose like a real model, haha.

Bare Feet - Rooney's Irish Pub - Orcutt, CA.

A couple weekends ago I found some time to get out of my desk seat and office to hang out with my boy, Googz, to go see Leif and his band, Bare Feet play at Rooney's Irish Pub in Orcutt. This was my first time seeing them play and I was very impressed. I love their style of music, in fact its my favorite type of music. The rendition of Snoop Dogg's Ain't No Fun was my favorite. They have great personality on stage. And despite finally leaving my desk seat, I still carried my DSLR with me and snapped a few shots of them. By the way, these were all shot with my 50mm 1.2 with no flash. Love this lens!
