Christmas Photos...Again...

{ Aubrey in her Red Dress... }

Aubrey came over to visit and take a few more photos for Christmas. She wasn't her usual self and so, did not smile...Think she was sleepy or maybe hungry? We did play with a set of new studio lights and some different backgrounds.

Happy Thanksgiving...

This is the last photo from our trip to Washington Park.

I kept telling Aubey to "Stay in the corner" and she was laughing so hard that we couldn't believe it.

Niki took these pictures with my Nikon D40.

Messing around with the cameras and new flash equipment. Here I am at the direction of the photo-bug Eddie. He just purchased a new set of Pro-Foto lights and is getting ready for more testing.

Last week we went down to Balboa Pier for some ferris wheel pctures. We walked around a bit and found some nice backgrounds, I kind of messed up the sunset photos so we'll have to go down there again.

Got together with Niki and Aubrey and went to lunch at Kimmie's in the Circle of Orange. The Circle, it's such a nice place that feels so homey, small-town. We walked around a few minutes and of course took a few photos.

Dia de los Muertos...

What a way for us Mexicanos to celebrate, we'll use any excuse to PARTY!!!...

Dia de Los Muertos....Day of the Dead

Actually it's All Souls Day...a time to reflect on all the family members and loved one's that have come and gone. It's a time to dress up like calaveras, espantos, la Llorona, El Boracho y El Catrin.

Get those frijoles out and let's play Loteria.






In case you have forgotten.....

November 1st is All Saints Day

November 2nd is Dia de Los Muertos
