I went to WPPI las weeken, this big wedding & portrait photographers conference in Vegas. It was a wonderful trip -I met a number of new friends and got closer to ones I have. I learned so much about where I am and the areas I want to grow as a photographer… There are many new ideas jumping around my head and I have that excited feeling that makes me wish there were more of me to get it all done.
Anyhow, Vegas can be kind of gross, -no offense, but there were days when I didn’t even make it outside! That recycled smoke-air leaves something to be desired. I was so so happy to come back to the beautiful bloom of Spring here in Oakland. The first afternoon home I went on a walk behind our house with the kids. The light was dripping with color and this lens just ate it up. (24 1.4)
Will, eating celery. While I was gone, Drew says he only fed the kids if they asked for food. I tried it, and it works beautifully. When they are hungry, they’ll eat anything -even celery. He also dressed them for school before he put them to bed at night.
Showing Will her “ouch”:
Hearing a woodpecker:
She got really freaked out by the woodpecker, so Will gives her a kiss…
..and then she’s off again.

kristen - LOL about drew’s parenting tactics. such great shots. the one of sky listening to the woodpecker is amazing.
ajira - This was such a sweet post. I keep hearing the same thing about Vegas- that it’s very, shall we say, man-made? I’m still super curious about it though, and looking forward to going to WPPI next year. Hope you’ll give us a recap of your experience sometime! Look forward to it!
Oh, and when I was about eleven I put on my school uniform before I went to bed and my dad went ballistic the next morning when he discovered it! LOL!
