There is one time a year that I get super super excited for. One time a year that one family goes above and beyond to out do their family portraits from the previous year. One time a year I get to photograph this family and I can’t even begin to tell you how much excitement i get when that day comes. I am talking about the Lewis Family (jen’s sister’s family).
After that session they were wondering how they could out do themselves. Kristen had talked to me about doing something a bit different. Something Gothic, but have a renaissance feel to the outfits and doing it outside in a very dense, woodsy area. I was super excited. The day came and we meet in Folsom at a new area I have been wanting to photograph at but never had the time, nor the right type of shoot, until that day with them. It was sooooooooooo much fun. The trees, the weather, the light, all of it couldn’t have been more perfect. Kristen, I had so much fun this year with you guys. I seriously don’t know how you guys can top this one, but I have a feeling you will. Enjoy your blog teaser and I can’t wait to share the rest with you guys!!!!
Chris : Thanks tana. I had a blast doing it. It would be fun to do a themed shoot with you guys. :) ( 03.02.2012 - 06:52 )

Our clients rock bigtime. We love what we do and with clients like Matt & Tabatha, they make our jobs that much more enjoyable and fun! Last weekend during the weird crazy weather, Jen and I went out to Old Roseville to meet up with Matt & Tabitha to photograph their Engagement Session. We met Tabatha when we photographed Ali & Danny’sTrash the Dress Session and then met up with her again at one of our favorite couples ever wedding Jackson & Krista’s a few years ago. Matt & Tabatha are super fun. They truly love each other and it really shows when you are around them. Tabitha is a down to earth fun girl and Matt is great. His sense of humor is awesome and he was making us laugh throughout the session. Matt & Tabatha we had a awesome time with you both. Enjoy your blog teaser, and we can’t wait to share the rest with you soon!!!

I can’t believe that already we are in June. The kids are just about out of school, memorial day weekend has come and gone, and when is summer going to come? I swear that when summer FINALLY approaches it wont be a slow process to warm up, it will just go from 70′s to 100+ like that. Regardless of this crazy weather, last weekend we met up with Ryan & Krista to photograph their Engagement Session in Newcastle. We love the town of Newcastle. Its quiet and has some awesome areas to shoot in and every time we go there, we always find a new place to photograph in. Ryan & Krista ROCKED!! They are totally fun to be around and just like to have a good time. The weather was killer and their session went well. Ryan & Krista we had a awesome time with you both. Enjoy your blog teaser and we can’t wait to show you the rest from your session.
Meet Ryan & Krista!!
LOVE LOVE LOVE!!!!!!
Love this!!
Ryan was being a goof!
This was so dope. This train we thought was on the other side of the tracks when we shot this but no, it was super close to them and going way fast. Love this shot!!!

The weather is changing and spring will be here sooner then we know it. Last week I ventured out to Roseville and met up with Connie and her family to photograph their family at home.

I know its been a while since we posted about more of our trip to San Diego. So many great memories of our trip that I can’t seem to put them all into one post, well I could but it would be massive so i needed to simplify down. ;)
So in this segment of our trip, we had some time to just be at the ocean and just hang out. We went to a beach in Encinitas, which by the way is the coolest town i have been to in a while. Small but filled with great restaurants and has a feel to it all its own. We grabbed some lunch and headed to the beach. The boys got to borrow some boogie boards from our good friends The Baxters from Ohana Photographers the day before when we spent Thanksgiving with them. Such good times. The day was amazing and was just what this family needed. A day to be close, have fun, and relax, and of course to watch the sun go down. All in all a perfect day!!
Miss boo of course hamming it up for the camera!
Getting ready to brave the COLD ocean. These boys had no fear at all of how cold it was in the water.
Both the boys riding a wave.
Regan catching his first wave……………….and then wiping out!!
Brian is growing up so fast. Look at how big he is.
I LOVE THIS MOMENT!! JEn was reading to the little ones as the sun was going down. They loved it.
Jen and I 13 years ago took a photo like this on our honeymoon.
Chris : Thanks guys!! Yah I havent met someone that can handle brians star wars and avatar info. We do wish we lived super close to you guys and we would love to move to SD. Dont know if we would kill it like you guys say but it would be cool thats for sure. ( 12.15.2010 - 06:39 )

Usually when thanksgiving comes around we usually go and visit family, hang out, have great food, and just chill out. This year though Jen and I had a different look on what we wanted to do for thanksgiving. Instead of sticking around town, we decided to get out of town and go to San Diego for the entire week of thanksgiving with the family. There is so much we want to share with you guys but we thought that for now we would share a summary of our awesome trip to LegoLand. trust us, we want toshare it all with you guys but for now here is a quick teaser video of LegoLand.
Blair Van Bussel : Looks like the kids had an awesome time! I love that there is a theme park for little kids! I cant wait till Jordan is big enough to get him a LL pass. ( 12.14.2010 - 09:03 )
Man the month of November was a crazy one thats for sure, but even in all the craziness, we found time as a family to spend in San Diego for the week of Thanksgiving. ( which by the way that blog post will be coming soon ). During that week, we met up with some good friends of ours, Ricky & Lena. They go down to San Diego every year to visit Ricky’s Family and they wanted us to photograph the two of them while we were down there so of course we would do it. We went to Balboa Park which is a amazing park in San Diego and we just walked around and had a amazing time there. The weather in San Diego is always great. I was telling Jen the other day that I think we just need to move there and raise our family and business there cause god is calling us there. Rick & Lena we love you guys. You two are a big part of our lives and friendship and all of our kids love you both BIGTIME!! Hope you two enjoy your teaser from your session.
HAHAHAHAHAH I LOVE THIS!!! So what were you doing in there you two????
Dude these trees are so big in the park but wait………..look at the next shot..
