A little Zeta "Pomp and Circumstance"

For the second year in a row, I've had the honor of photographing a few of the graduating Zeta Tau Alpha's from Cal Poly Pomona.  As an alumna of this beautiful group of women, it always makes me a little nostalgic and very proud to see these ladies put on their graduation outfits. 

This year, we had quite a bit more ladies participate and I can safely say, this was the largest portrait group I've every shot! 

Congratulations to the Theta Omega class of 2011! 

Loving Life

I've been on a kick lately where I've been photographing things that bring me and the people that I love happiness: things that we love. 

I wanted to share some of those moments and things with you!  Enjoy! 

The story behind this is two-fold:  First of all, this was one of the most excellent double lattes I've ever had in my life.  The Crepe House in San Fransisco knocked it out of the park on that one.  Second, the lady that made it just happened to surprise me with the fact that she knew (or guessed) that I'm an aries.  Apparently I'm a ram all of the time, even when ordering my omlettes. 

This was just a beautiful night shot from an amazing night out in San Fransisco with Big Mike.  Great weather.  Excellent company.  Gorgeous building.  Happiness abounds. 

This one is for Big Mike.  Beer tasting at the fair is one of his favorite things to do and I find it fascinating because beer is honestly really pretty to me.  The colors.  The contrasts.  I'm kind of odd like that. 

Sheesh, I love this kid.  Smiling.  Happy.  Active.  Chatty.  Active.  He's a great kid and he's calming my nerves about one day having one myself.  Not there yet, but perhaps he warms my heart to the idea. 

These yahoos.  It's not really a "new" photo, but these three goof balls always bring a smile to my face.  Seeing them graduate together was one of my favorte memories of 2010, and one that will probably be one of my favorite memories for many years to come.
