Happy New Year 2012
Christmas Eve 2011
This year Jon & Kathy got bullied into hosting Christmas Eve, by Aunty Karen. She also made Jimi cook dinner? As I mentioned earlier I have to get better at shooting portraits so I used this opportunity to try a few. I lugged a car full of equipment so I could try some new gear. …
Noah’s 1st Thanksgiving
Fun with the family, as usual. Enough food to feed an army, as usual. The worst part of the evening? While I was carving the burd Noah got his 1st taste of turkey… he absolutely hated it, spit it out in dramatic fashion. I would have loved to have captured that moment.

SD Christmas

Christmas Eve 2010
I think it’s been 3 years since celebrated Christmas at the Nakamatsu’s. Jimi made an incredible Italian dinner which I forgot to photograph. The braised pork in milk was excellent. Of course the gag gift session was very Italian and Tami & Chris had a very special announcement.
