Adam and I went out to the Berkeley Marina and took his new remote controlled Easystar Parkflyer air plane for a test drive. When he told me he bought one, I was imagining something in the size of our remote controlled  helicopter. A little bigger then my hand. When it arrived I noticed my imagination was completely off. The box was as tall as me! My first thought was ‘Oh My Goodness’! All while he had an adorable smile of excitement on his face.  The weather here has been wishy washy in every direction so we had to wait a few days to take it out. And in those few days we acquired a new centerpiece for our dining room table. Now with the weather beautiful and warm , the plane was ready for take off.
and a few of us.
This dog has got to be one of the luckiest dogs around. He arrived on Adam’s aunties door step starving and homeless. They put up signs and asked neighbors and shelters if any one had lost a dog. Not wanting to let it just go to a shelter in fear that he would be put to sleep they decided to keep him until someone called. After a few weeks of no call and a chubbier dog it looked like they found themselves a new family member. Hes very much content in his new home and obeys everything they say. Id say hes a pretty cool dog.
Anu and Samuel are such a sweet and simple couple. Anu with her adorable accent and bashful smile, you can tell just how much she adores her husband Sam when she looks at him. Samuel met Anu in Europe while on work with his church. They taught classes together and did lots of outings with each other. Eventually Sam began to go to Anu’s families house for dinner and the more they worked together the more they fell head over heels for each other. They married here in America where they live and work.
It was a pleasure working with them, they are so nice and such good sports. Down for anything. Even though it was absolutely freezing outside, Anu posed like a champ! No bad weather will stand in that girls way! She could make the ugliest day warm and beautiful with her delicate smile. I wish the best for both of them and I feel happy not only to have worked with them, but to also say I found new friends!

Wilson and Mary are Hilarious! I swear we were laughing and joking our entire shoot. I’m sure it doesn’t hurt when your photographer starts singing along with a country song as a person is playing it on the street with his guitar case open for change. But what can I say!? If a girl likes a song, a girl is going to sing it. Or am I just wired?
When Wilson and Mary met, they hardly knew they practically saw each other every day. They attended the same High school, Shared the same friends, and even posed in the same group prom picture. After High school Mary moved away for college, later returning to Oakland Ca when her classes were completed. Her and her close friend would go out eating ,shopping and dancing on the weekends after work. When little did she know Wilson who happened to be everywhere she was ended up going out with them one night. They were finally introduced to each other properly and Mary got a twich in her memory of seeing him around. The conversations started and laughter began over the silly coincidence of it all.
After getting to know each other Wilson asked Mary to be his beautiful girlfriend. Not long after being together Mary met his entire family. She was a little intimidated but her personality shined and in that moment he won over her heart.
They are so connected in a way that its hard to explain for them, they just fit together perfectly. They both knew they wanted to get married and talked about it often. On September 20th 2008 Wilson took Mary ring shopping. She found the perfect ring, And with that Wilson proposed there in front of everyone. In her own words She can definitely see growing old with him. The big day is on May 28th 2011. She will be an absolutely beautiful bride. With three different wedding dresses!
