I don't know about you, but I love going to the river, drinking wine, photographing in great light, and walking along the waterfront. For most people, all these things would make for a packed weekend, but for Kerri and Kevin, it was just their engagement session. We started in Sausalito for some waterfront pictures near Le Garage where they had their first date. Then we got a private look at MacMurray Ranch where we were in photo heaven - the light could not have been more gorgeous, and the grounds and vineyards of the ranch were so beautiful. We were also the only ones there, so we were able to explore to our hearts' content. We finished their session along the river with their dogs Zito and Pogo, who couldn't stay out of the water. Kerri and Kevin are getting hitched in just a few weeks, and we can't wait for their wedding, which I know will be gorgeous and a blast!
Mini Vacation with Adm's Nieces
We got to play superfunauntanduncle last week when Adm's nieces, Abby and Hava, came down from Oregon to stay with us for a few days. We kept them super busy with day trips all over northern California - including the Russian River to go swimming and a visit to their grandparents' house in Greeley Hill (which has chickens galore) and to Yosemite National Park, among other things, and we had a ton of fun with them. I just love these two - they are so full of fun, youth and sweetness. Every time I get to see them, it makes me miss them even more when they leave. Luckily, we have lots of photos to remember their visit.
By the way, I might have a new favorite vacation lens: 35 mm 1.4. The 50 mm has always been my go-to when I'm just doing personal stuff and don't want to carry around a bag of gear, but all of these photos were shot with my new 35, and I LOVED using it!
