Cover Girl!

The New Times is a weekly publication in San Luis Obispo, Ca. Every year they hold a photography contest they call Winning Images. Last night was the reception and unveiling of the winners. I was very happy to hear that I got 2nd place in the animals category . . . and then they announced my name as the 1st place winner of the people category . . . and then the 1st place winner of the open category. But the most exciting announcement for me was that my image would appear on the front page of the new issue!!

Carly

My daughter Carly has moved back to California from Boise, Idaho. I got to practice my portraiture skills on her. Here are a few of that are ready for uploading. She used to hate having her picture taken - obviously she learned to enjoy it. What else can you do when your mom is a photographer?

We came across this cool old building on Monterey St. in San Luis Obispo. The businesses had to move out because the building needs retrofitting.

These were taken at a winery in Templeton.

Carly got this idea from a TV show. She really doesn't know how to float - we had lots of laughs trying to get one that looked like she was floating.

Carly used to ride for years when she was growing up. We borrowed her friend Molly's beautiful dapple gray horse for this shot.

There's more to come later.

more catching up . . . the wedding of Mike and Stephanie Molfino

This beautiful garden wedding took place in Atascadero, Ca. and included friends, family and lot of adorable kids! The ceremony was followed by a simple but elegant dinner and lots of toasting, including one by Mike's 8 year old son, Jaxen that brought a tear to many.

Catch-up Time!! Starting with Nate and Galaxia

I photographed the ceremony of my friend Nancy's niece Galaxia in a pretty outdoor setting in Atascadero, Ca. It was a beautiful day, but also one of the hottest days this summer!
