There’s a lot more going on in Sonoma than just good food and wine… check it out here!

We recently photographed Ashley and Scott’s destination wedding in Puerto Morelos, Mexico.  Puerto Morelos is a small town just up the coast from Playa Del Carmen in the Riviera Maya.  For the full post, head over to our wedding blog!

One of the things I love most about photography is that it’s just another form of  ”people watching” – one of my favorite things to do.  You can get in close and not only observe, but capture, the array of emotions that occur in all of us.  Take Aria, for example.  There was a birthday party at the park where we were taking pictures and all the kids were playing with huge tubs of soapy water and making bubbles.  They invited Aria to come over and play with them and she was so excited!  Watching her gaze at the enormous bubbles, mesmerized, as they floated by, made me yearn for a time when I thought there was nothing better in life than a bubble.  To be so enchanted with something so insignificant, made me stop and think about all the things in my life that I am thankful for and that I don’t take enough time to truly appreciate.  I am so fortune to be constantly surrounded by wonderful people, like Brittany, Dan, Aria & Avery, who are not only are my incredible clients, but who enrich my life by allowing me to peak into their world.  So I thank them.  And I thank Aria, for being that sweet and innocent little girl who made me smile one afternoon in a park somewhere.

There are so many things that come to mind when I think of Miss Angharad Jones.  First of all, her beauty.  Both outside and in.  She can captivate an entire room, and she is one of those people you just want to be near in hopes that some of her charm will rub off on you.  She is caring beyond words, and a wonderful friend.  I am truly honored to know her.  And if you thought she couldn’t get any more amazing, just wait until you hear her sing!  I can’t wait for her concert at the Jazz School next month – she lights up the stage.  (Concert info at end of post.)

The Berkeley Jazz School presents Angharad Jones, From There To Here: A Memoir In Song, on Saturday June 26th at 8pm.  To buy tickets, visit The Jazz School.  Hope to see you there!
