Last time we saw Logan, he was only 10 days old and was spending most of his time sleeping.  Here we are 6 months later and he has grown into such a cute little young man.  It’s just incredible how much babies grow and change in their first year.  Which is why we love doing a series of shoots that showcase a baby’s growth.  The traditional ages to schedual shoots during your baby’s first year, is as a new born, at 6 months, 9 months and the 1 year mark.   But we also love it when new mommies opt for their first shoot with us to be a maternity shoot.


The fair is a place for demonstrating your manliness by winning your girl a stuffed animal, eating funnel cake followed by cotton candy followed by a carmel apple.  Almost loosing it all on a ride that spins to fast, and then jumping on swings that fly!  For photographers the fair is a play ground full of bright lights, colors and movement.  Its a place to open up your shutter and see what happens.  We had a blast this summer running around at the San Diego County Fair taking pictures of what ever struck our fancy.  The great thing about the fair is that you never know what your going to end up seeing while your there.  This year we were witness to sheep wearing spandex!  Anywhere else I would have been frightened, but at the Fair it’s just amusing.

Sheep in Zebra Clothing!!!!

These guys decided to coordinate outfits for the competition. I think they mean business!

So many people…

We took this one with our IR camera. The camera picked up some interesting light going on above the swings on this shot.

We ran into our long time friends Nacole and West. They are so cute, West wins her a new stuffed doggie every year. This year’s pooch makes #9

We sometime entertain ourselves by making faces. This time we were waiting for our photo booth pictures. It felt like forever before that little strip of 4 images popped out.

These pictures came from one of our favorite parts of the day with Alison and Andy.  Their coordinator Cindy Velaquista did a fantastic job of keeping every moment of Alison and Andy’s day running on schedule.  We absolutely loved this because it meant we got more time with the lovely Bride and Groom after their ceremony.  The Tanque Verde  Ranch has the most beautiful little lake on their property, and Cindy took all of us there for a fantastic photo-op.  On top of all the natural beauty around the ranch, Alison and Andy could not have picked a better time to have their wedding.  All of the desert flowers were in bloom, allowing for some of the most incredible photographs.  Thank You Alison and Andy for an absolutely incredible day.
