Matthew's Mad Science Birthday Party

A couple of weeks ago I shot this awesome birthday party in the city. I had a hard time choosing my favorite photos because there were just so many! So there will be two parts to this one. 

Matthew turned 7, and his mom, Mina (who also owns A Swan Event... so of course this was sure to be a great event) put on an awesome party for all of his friends. There were experiments to be had, super bouncy balls to be made, and rockets to be launched. Not to mention lots of fun treats to be eaten!

All in all, it was a super fun time, and I even learned a few new things.

This past weekend I made a trip back home to Ohio for a few days! So this here is my lovely mother! They are moving from Ohio to California in a little over a week (I can’t believe it, and I’m totally jealous) so my mom wanted me to do some new head shots for her before they left. SO, after our last dinner as a family in Ohio (at Fiesta Mexicana… the best Mexican food ever, I’m seriously gonna miss it), I took a walk with my mom and dad out at the golf course around sunset. The light was so so awesome, so in addition to the head shots, I snapped a couple of my mom and dad together and then my dad took a few of my mom and I together! (we’re adorable, I know)

Anyways, it was good to go home, even if it was a short visit. Next time I go home, there will be pictures by the ocean! But for now it’s back to being busy again!

:D

The Coffee Studio

The Coffee Studio 

Yesterday I stopped in The Coffee Studio for the first time to take a few pictures. This is sort of a mock editorial that I’m doing just as an experiment for a possible job, and just for practice and fun! I called a few days before I went in to see if it would be okay, and the owner was super nice about it.
When I went in, she asked me if I could maybe take some pictures of their new flatbreads, and of course I’m always down for some food photography! So here are the results. I had a lot of fun, and it was nice to just go out and take some images just to do it and get the practice.
The Coffee Studio is located in Andersonville and reportedly has the best coffee in town! (I would say I know from experience, but I have yet to develop a taste for coffee) The people who work there are friendly, and their new flatbreads look pretty awesome! ;) 

Chinatown Wedding

It was a beautiful, sunny day for a wedding, although it was pretty toasty out! Everyone survived though and the day was lovely, I had such a great time with this couple, they were so sweet and laid back. I know they’ll live a happy happy life together!

For their couple photos, we went to this super cool park in Chinatown that had some great photo spots. There was so much variety it was the perfect location! After that we headed to the reception, met up with all of the guests and had a great time at the reception. 

Thanks again guys for being so great. I had a blast and was so happy to be a part of your day!
