{brigitte, randy & julien}

oh where to start. i first photographed the lovely brigitte and randy when she was pregnant with julien (she is featured on my website under portraits). it was a rainy yucky sunday in san francisco and i was a little ummmm -- let's just say i didn't need the last glass of wine the night before. when i got to their place my creative juices started flowing. it helps that randy is a photographer and artist as well and i am always inspired and try to push myself to get great images when around other artist. the light was beautiful and so are my subjects.

julien is such a little bug. he has the most adorable apple shaped head and those beautiful glossy eyes. brigitte is the absolute perfect model. she falls into poses like nobody else i have photographed.

anyhow -- thank you for the great shoot you guys. 7 days away and counting. all my prayers and good vibes are going out to you.

hugs! rah

{napa and discovery museum}

it was so nice taking a little time off to spend with my family. jack and i stayed in napa with oompa (grandpa) and gmama (grandma). we had a really great time just relaxing in the most excellent house. if you are going to napa and need a cozy place to stay right downtown, email me and i will send over the link. the place was perfect!

today bret, jack and i went over to see the chinese new year performance at bay area discovery museum. great place -- great time.

ahh -- feeling nice and relaxed and ready to conquer the office space this week. will post images of my progress later this week :).
