Somehow you’ll escape all that waiting and staying. You’ll find the bright places where Boom Bands are playing. With banner flip-flapping, once more you’ll ride high! Ready for anything under the sky. Ready because you’re that kind of a guy! OH, the places you’ll go!

Today I was back out in F Town! My girls are all growing up and moving on with their lives and going in all different directions! Lorraine is my "grand lil sis"(NO, that does not make me old!) :)  We ran around downtown Fullerton for some fun! Then back to the house to get some final shots of the house we all knew so well... I love that I get to be the one to capture these memories for them!

Heartbroken in Texas

This past week my family lost a wonderful lady, mother, grandma and great grandma. I flew back to Texas to say my final goodbye to my grandma where she was laid to rest with my grandpa in the small town my dad grew up in. Its been years since we've been there and probably will not get the chance to go back for awhile, if ever.

Texas has always had a special place in my heart and forever will. Appreciating where I've come from is important to me to go forward in life. 


This is the house my grandparents raised 9 kids at!! Oh if this house could talk...  now only the memories remain here...

 End of an era and life goes on...

Sigma Kappa Time!

Love graduation time! I always make time for my sorority girls no matter how crazy I may get with work :)

One of Sigma Kappa's official philanthropies is gerontology (with a focus on Alzheimer's disease research) Sigma Kappa became the first sorority to recognize the need for continued comprehensive work on the study of aging and the needs of the elderly population.** My grandmother recently (this morning) passed away from this disease so this session was bitter sweet for me.

Here are some of my favorite shots from this morning shoot. I had the chance to capture my sister Natalie's grad pics! We headed out to the Santa Ana train station for some fun! Natalie is interning as a production assistant with Disney and looks like things will be going great for her in the future! I love catching up wiht my girls and seeing the great things they are doing and goals they plan to accomplish! So exciting!!

Congrats to all my Sigma girls graduating this year!!!
