This is my latest self-made camera tool. Sometimes, it is hard to yell, "Logan, Logan, what's on the top of my head?", when the big camera is in front of my face blocking the sound coming out of my mouth.
Now my camera will have a fun look and hope to make them giggle. It sure made me giggled when I was shooting this picture.
Tony and I go way back, he is my good friend from UC Davis. We used to be neighbors and had the same major. We used to spend late nights trying to finish our projects. Boy, weren't we ambitious pulling all-nighters.
Fast forward 12 years...
I was honored to be asked to be Tony and Jen's wedding photographer. A few weeks ago, I stopped by LA to shoot their engagment photo. Since we hung out before, there was no need to break the ice. It was a blast! Not only that, they fed me well. I can stay a few days longer. LOL!
After the fun bubble bath, my son decided to dress himself while I was folding laundry. He picked out his clothing from the pile and this was what he was running around with for the next 20 mins. I think most of us have seen this look on someone else.
On the way back from leaving Vegas, my new found friend, Jenny, who was very much like me, was telling me this idea of hers of putting together a book for her son's school auction. Her idea was to have them make art pieces and take picture of the art pieces with the child. As she was telling me this, it triggered another idea for me about a coffee table book which will be quotes that they hand written of what they think love is and the next page would be their picture. The book was a HIT needless to day. All the moms melted when they saw the book and even the teacher wanted one. Thank you Jenny for helping me coming up with this great idea!
Due to all the budget cuts, the witty parents came up with ways to still provide a decent education system for our youngsters. In the beginning of the month, my daughter's school had fund raising auction, and the theme was a hoedown. Michael and I were out looking for some cowboy western gear and I think we passed the test of fitting in. I was hoping Monica will show me some country dance moves but no cigar :P Plus we also had to pick the kids up at Grams, so we had to cut it short. All and all I felt great that I was able to help the school raise some money. Woohoo! Go LIONS!
Over the weekend, I was super camera happy. I think it s because of all the blossoms around the neighborhood which I don't think I ever paid attention before. The kids were in for a torture. Stand here! Look at me! It’s harder to take good pictures of your kids than someone else’s kid. You all know how it works. They listen better to others than their own parents. *sigh* Never the less, I was able to capture what the kids and my husband of the way they are today.
