Where’s the tech fix it guy when you need him?

Well… in someone else’s office, obviously.   Someone who… well, has an office that wouldn’t require the fix it guy to live in the hall closet.

“Hey, I can figure this stuff out myself!” I happily tell myself.  About everything.  Read almost any business book and you’ll find lots and lots of information about why that’s no way to run a business.  Yep, I’ve read them too.  But I like working on my websites and blogs, so that’s something I’ve spent a huge amount of time on.  Unfortunately, while trying to change my website hosting plan to allow me more control over it, I seem to have lost it.  And as confusing as it is to me, the companies that I thought had the information about these things (and, I thought, backups) seem to know what’s going on even less than I do.  So either my poor little website is out there, lonely and scared in cyberspace and wondering how to get back to where it was before…. or it exists no more.  I really don’t know.  And, apparently, neither does anyone else.

So, for the moment I’m simply redirecting everything here.   Hopefully the main site will be back up soon.  Hopefully it still exists somewhere.  I’ve got my fingers crossed…..

Stella’s China Camp Portrait Session | Marin Children’s Photographer

Stella and her parents just moved to the Bay Area a few weeks ago, so it was great to be able to introduce them to one of my all time favorite photo spots.  China Camp Village has the perfect mix of old fishing boats, bright blue skies (on a good day anyway) and relatively warm water for little toes.  There’s always a new place to explore and I’m a big fan of outdoor locations that help me get a great variety of images while keeping the kiddos happy and entertained.  Little Miss Stella had a great time hanging out and playing in the water!

Emerson Goes to the Beach | San Francisco Children’s Photographer| Baker Beach Photos

In 2007, I photographed Julia and Wei-min’s wedding and it was great to see them again and meet their smiley little guy at this Baker Beach photo shoot.  Baker Beach is great in the early morning light and, even though I’m a bit of a night owl and can be slow in the morning, Emerson’s happy energetic personality was better than 5 cups of coffee to get my day going.  Yep, he’s definitely getting that great fun spirit from his mom and dad!

Isabella Goes For A Run | Lafayette Reservoir | Outdoor Children’s Portraits

Ahhh… the joys of running around naked.  You can buy them cute outfits by the dozen, but most of the munchkins I meet would much prefer to ditch the clothes and go streaking around in the sun.   And when they’re as cute as Little Miss Thing here, it’s hard to stop them.

I love the bloomers! I can’t remember how many times I’ve left  portrait sessions with the intention of ordering some to keep on hand for photo shoots.  So I did a quick search and found Three Little Starfish, an Etsy shop with lots of fun colors and designs if you’re in the bloomer market.   Ok, so I’ve found it… now if I could just get around to actually ordering them.

I had a great time hanging out with these guys and can’t wait to meet the new addition to the family sometime in September.  More photos of Isabella and her new little playmate will be coming soon!

Home. And it’s so nice.

The fella and I are back from Tanzania and, ummm….. possibly accidentally kind of married (Maasai style anyway).   More about that to come, but for now I just wanted to say hello and let everyone know I’m back in the good old USA and trying to get caught up after a very very good trip.  We just got back, so I’m really behind on my e-mail  (my internet connection has been painfully slow or non-existent since I’ve been gone), so if you’ve written lately and not heard back from me, I’ll be writing you very soon!

But now it’s time to get my gear packed for a wedding in the morning and my bags packed to jump back on a plane (no sleep for me- leaving for Alabama a few hours after the wedding ends)  to see my mom in Alabama for her birthday for a few days.  Happy Birthday Lady!
