Ala Family

My Friend Owen and his wife Camille were in town for a few days and wanted to get a quick family shot. It was fun to see their son Ryder, he is a 2 year old just like our Owen. They had a great time running around getting in trouble. Owen has a few years left in his orthopedic surgery residency. Hopefully they decide that they want to live in Alaska after they are done. Aren't they a great looking family. ~Erik

Family Photo Shoot

I did a photo shoot with a co-worker for their neighbor a couple weeks ago. They were a very fun family to shoot. I had to chuckle a little because the younger boy was a bit like our Owen. He just didn't want to get his picture taken. Can't really blame him, I don't really like getting my picture taken either. We did get some really good shots though. I like capturing little gems when true personalities come out. Most of the time it is pure luck. In fact, with the last picture in the series I didn't realize I captured this tender moment until I was reviewing the pictures on my computer. You can see mom is trying to get the boys to smile. The oldest boy has his younger brother in a choke hold. The youngest boy grabbed a fistful of dad and poor dad was trying not to scream. It is tender moments that make it all worth while. ~Erik

Another Pond Photo Shoot

I did another shoot for the Pond's. Lachlan is 1 yr old now. I shot him while he was still in his mothers womb, after he was born and at 6 months. In fact I also shot the Doctor that made it all possible. I messed around with some textures in the shot above. I am not sure if I like it or not. There are a couple more shots here and here. Congrats on 1 year Lachlan! ~Erik
