More from San Diego...
Okay - so i guess I did get one sunset picture. I took this at the Marine Base which is right next the airport. Our original plan was to go bowling on the base until I had to leave for my flight - but that didn't work out. So we drove around the base and that's when this scene appeared.


Of course we needed to get some pictures of Alex - I should dig up some of his toddler pictures to compare....I bet he'd love that!

Steph was a great model - very relaxed in front of the camera, that was really nice.

A bed of clovers to pose in.....just in time for St. Patrick's Day!

Soggy San Diego!!

I couldn't believe it – I left soggy Seattle for some sun and surf in San Diego and what didI get?!! Rain!! I mean seriously, how many days out of the year does it rain in San Diego?! That’s okay – I had such a good time visiting with one of my cherished friends.

There is just something so warm and comfortable about an “old” friend. They know everything about you and still like you anyway!(LOL) So for 3 days Carrie and I shopped, got our nails done, went out to lunch, drove to the beach, stayed up late, slept in late and just hung out and talked for hours. It was much needed girlfriend time and I am so grateful that she let me come down!

Okay now for the photography side....I really, really wanted to play around with sunset pictures and sun flares while I was there. I even practiced a sun flare picture on my flight - I would have never have guessed that this would be my ONLY sun flare picture of my trip. We did go down to La Jolla (one of my favorite San Diego beaches) and I was able to take some fun beach pictures.

I remember holiding "baby" Steph in my arms......now a beautiful young woman!

21 Years together....oh the stories I could tell......

I thought this metal bar was really cool. Anyway....I'll post more pictures tomorrow. Really!!!

Senior Rainy Day Session
Wow! Brittany was such a good sport. We were hoping for a clear afternoon and instead got rain, wind, and cold! We did find some fun areas to take pictures - mostly, I have to admit - we were looking for shelter from the weather!

I love Brittany's great smile - in fact, that great smile is the reason we were out braving the cold weather! She wanted to wait until her braces were off before her Senior photo session - patience definately paid off!
This is great little park in downtown Kent - we were hiding under the trees!

Brittany is "on track" for graduation.......okay, that was a little lame. :)

I blew out the colors with this image for a little bit more of a dramatic affect.
