Courtney - High school senior photography - Santa Cruz

The whole family came out from Modesto celebrate Courtney’s senior year, and we made sure they got to see the places the locals go.  Our first location found the Big Trees train chugging through the track crossing, which made for a great background.  Next we went to a beach with a great variety of textures, and just a few waves crashing.  Little sis went exploring – up to her neck, unintentionally – while we played with the green moss and sea foam.  Ending up with a wetsuit and some gorgeous color, we finished up our Indian Summer afternoon with a typical chilly Santa Cruz evening.

Full Moon over Motorcycle

I took this shot last Sunday after a high school senior session. As I was walking to my car I looked up and saw this beautiful moon. I wanted to get a shot with the light house in the foreground but it is all about timing and where you are.  I ran in to this guy named Luke from Zero Motorcycles that had a surfboard attached to his bike and he asked if I would take a quick shot of his bike with the large moon. Now the moon does not look that big in this image but is was a orange harvest moon. It was twilight dark, dark blue sky with a touch of pink. not much light but I have Luke hold up his cell phone that just happen to have a small light on it to help light up his bike. This is all hand held so I was pleased I got a sharp image.

Just too cute for words. I love this age to photograph,  So many smiles! This is a great age to capture for a life time. Baby still has lots of his baby fat, that cute chubbiness and smiles that wish he would never grow older.

Seascape Resort Wedding- Santa Cruz Wedding Photography

 For the first time, we met a bride on her wedding day with nobody else in the room! April was the picture of composure – until her flowers showed up and the emotion struck. Wesley was definitely Mr. Cool, looking good and wearing a killer pair of pinstriped shoes. The toasts were amazing, including a stand-up worthy routine from the best man, and a stand-in singer for Wesley, as he took over the drums from the live band ensemble. The show continued with a three part dance exquisitely executed by the newlyweds. Even the first group dance was a coordinated line dance. We made a dash down to the beach for sunset including a Mr. Toad’s Wild Ride worthy zip down the hill – appropriate given the couple’s joint fascination with Disneyland.
