As I sit here waiting for another year to come to an end, I can't help but reflect on all I have been blessed with. A beautiful family (they truly make my world go round), wonderful friends (and several new friends), successful business endeavors and my health, just to name a few.
I equate all my blessings to flowers. You receive them, plant them, water them, nurture them and they grow and become a beautiful part of your life. Usually giving back way more than you have invested. As the new year begins, I look forward to a new year of blessings. I wish all of you the same!
I'm out for 07, but keep planting those flowers, the world needs more love! See ya next year my wonderful friends!

A little time together.....
Ray and I had a father and son day today. After lunch at his favorite place, The Spaghetti Factory, we hit up Borders, and then we went to the driving range! He did great for his first time. I have not played for a long time, so my swing is a little rusty, but he took to it well! A few more times at the driving range and we may try a Par 3 course!

Christmas........
We have our Christmas Eve and Day pretty defined in our family! Christmas Eve we spend at my parents house where we eat in-n-out (very fancy!) and then exchange presents with my family. It was especially cool for me this year, as my sister flew in from South Carolina! Christmas morning is just the four of us, and then the afternoon is spent with Marlene's family!
The hit of our house this Christmas is the Wii. We are all having so much fun with it! It comes with a sports pack, and Marlene is the bowling champ, Ray is the baseball champ, I am the tennis champ, and look below for Zoe's specialty!

Last Minute Shopping!!!
I did two shoots for Marlene's family today! I shot her nephews and nieces (more on that later) and three of her cousins at my favorite park in La Mirada. They wanted last minute holiday portraits to give as presents! Even though I have been shooting digital for six years, it still amazes me that we can do a shoot, edit it, and upload to the lab all within an hour! Thanks Chris, Danny, and Jerry for hanging out with me today!

A Holiday Offer!!!!!
Marlene and I wanted to thank everyone for all the interest you all have shown in our photography, and family, over the past year. We have been to some fabulous places and met some wonderful people! We are looking forward to an incredible 2008 and we have several exciting new ideas to implement over the year. We hope you will continue to follow our journey.
We have been very blessed with our bookings for 2008, and would love to continue booking for 2009. As a special holiday offer, we are offering a 10% discount and free DVD slideshow for anyone who books a 2009 wedding before December 31, 2007. In an effort to extend this offer to our 2008 clients who have already booked, we will also give you 10% off and a free DVD slideshow if you pay your balance by December 31, 2007!
We wish you all the best this holiday season, and a very prosperous New Year. We don't close our office for the Holiday, so feel free to contact us anytime!
