Livermore Harvest Fest 2009, and MORE!!!!!

Hey everyone! I am truly excited to be participating in this years Livermore Harvest Fest. I will at Tesla Vineyard, when talking to others that have tasted wine in Livermore if I say that is where they have The Singing Winemaker products they know where its at. It should be a great weekend, I hope to see many people out there.

I have 2 panels now to properly display framed art work at fairs and festivals, which I am very excited about. Made them instead of purchasing them, and they don't look bad at all! I am soooooo excited to use them for the first time this weekend!

Also, for the holiday weekend I will be doing a drawing for someone to win a free family portrait session. Just in time for the holidays!!! I can not wait to find out who's the winner!!!!!!!

I should have some photos of my tent from the Harvest Fest next weekend to share along with the winner of the prize.

Jami, Jami, Jami
























I have shot Jami loads of times, and I have always thought she should model. Actually, I am not the only one who believes that. She helped me become one of Crossroads Honorable Mention last year. Now that company uses that photo in some of their ads in newspapers. What makes it soooo easy to shoot her is well, I think it is because it comes easy for her.

She has decided to start working on a portfolio, and yesterday she came over and we just pulled out many shots of her. I actually had about 10 and up to share but I thought I would just do 6. :) We didn't get too crazy just tried to keep it basic some extremely natural looking. I love it when you shoot over 300 shots and do not even realize it. I can't wait to shoot her again, which we definitely plan to real soon. Ideas start to pop in my head. :)

Family Portraits




I always love taking photos of families that just like to have a good time. Here are a couple shots from that day. I just love the photo of everyone laying on the grass making faces.

Farmers Market



I finally made it to our Tracy's Farmers Market!
