Pumpkins and Halloween

Here are some photos of our house pumpkin carving:

Anthony is such a character

Jason found this creepy kids portrait somewhere, and it seemed fitting for the Halloween vibe.

Our family of pumpkins.

Alexis and I were Wednesday and Pugsley from the Adams Family for Halloween :)

Chris and Leiha

I am so glad that I get to photograph Chris and Leiha's wedding next spring! Leiha is in charge of making all of the sports programs for Dos Pueblos High School. She arranged for Ryan and I to take photos of some of their sporting events to use in these programs while I was living in Goleta. This was  fun, and we became friends. It is an honor to take photos for a fellow designer, but also really cool to see a friend in such a good relationship! Chis is great, and it was nice getting to know him while we were doing the photos. You can also see more in the SLIDESHOW.

These first photos were at the Lane Farms pumpkin patch.

The eucalyptus trees out on the Ellwood bluffs are a cool photo spot.

Chris and Genevieve Targoni

I had a pleasure of being able to be a guest at my good friend Chris Targoni's wedding. I think that this was this first time that I have been a guest at a wedding in probably 5 years because I am normally "working." Chris and Genevieve had an awesome wedding on the beach in Carpinteria. I took a few photos just because I couldn't help myself.

I was looking through these photos, and I realized that almost all of my friends at this wedding work at Reality Carp (or they serve there). Sean and DJ above and Cody and Jessica below.

Matt, Amber, Zoe and Ryan.

This is Chach, and probably the best cupcake toast that I've ever heard!

The youth group leaders/kids from Reality. When I first met Chris, he was still in high school. We did discipleship together for a couple years, although I think that I learned more from him than he did from me.

Congratulations!

Michael and Juliana

I got to do some portraits for Michael and Juliana around San Francisco. We started out at City Hall, and surprisingly, it was my first time there. What a beautiful building! You can see some of the shots that we got below, or you can see more in their SLIDESHOW. Cheers!

Matthias came with me so that he could get some images for his portfolio. He took the shot above, and I really like it.

Thanks!
