The newest family member

I’d like to introduce Alicia Maria Kinney, just 2 weeks old. We drove up to Folsom to photograph her. Sandy asked me if this was gonna be a complex setup with lights & sandbags. Luckily yesterday I received my new 4 square softbox in the mail. My friend Jim turned me on to this great …

Jen’s Bday

Today we celebrated Jennifer’s birthday at Ed’s Teriyaki. I had the teriyaki cheesesteak, I know that sounds strange but it was actually pretty darn good. Of course Noah was getting all the attention.

Lazy Saturday

Today we met Aunty Amy, Cait, Chris, Tami & Noah at the Blue Dot Cafe & Coffee Bar for a late breakfast. Then we brought Aunty Amy to the local farmers market and we walked away with a carnivorous orchid which I have yet to ID. While photographing the orchid, I happened to look down …

Honolulu Oct 2011

Semi annual maintenance is what brought me to the islands this time. Or maybe it was the ramen. For whatever reason lately I’ve been on this ramen kick and my photos reflect this trend. I finally got my free cup of coffee from the Honolulu Coffee Company, it only took 2 years to accomplish this. …

Lake Tahoe 2011

We finally went up to Lake Tahoe after putting it off for so many months. Other than the beauty of the area we wanted to visit Jimi & Amy (Maverick too). Unfortunately for us Amy was down in the bay area and Jimi’s availability was limited, so we made the best of the Tahoe scene …

Sunday Football

We paid Tami, Noah, Auntie Amy & Cait a visit to watch the football game. Not. I have no idea who won or who was even playing. All I know is we got to eat RT pizzas & play with Noah & Koa.

Alien Bees

Got a hold of a couple of used strobes via Ebay – I plan on using my Alien Bees AB400 alot. Did a test tonight and had trouble getting the strobes to fire consistently. By the time I got a PC sync cord hooked up it was too late. I still need some work on …

Lambtown 2011

We checked out Lambtown in Dixon today. It was pretty small and I think I only saw 1 lamb. They should have named it Alpaca Town. Sandy dined on the lamb riblets while I gnawed on a lamb sausage.

NEX nite

We met up with Jim & Kelly tonight at NEX in Oakland. The pressed watermelon salad was excellent as was the duck confit. I don’t have a small camera anymore so I had to make do with iPad photos. We really should do this more often.
