Bridge

Bridge is turning 1 and I got to take his 1-year old portraits!  He was wearing a traditional Korean outfit (and his parents too) to celebrate his first birthday.  He’s seriously one of the happiest and easy going babies I’ve ever met.  So cute!

I’m finishing off with a couple photos of Osso, the family dog.  It’s so hard for me to blog without including some fur…

Cheengoo Dog Collars

I recently shot a line of collars for Cheengoo – an awesome luxury dog collar company based right here in San Francisco!  Cheengoo sells dog collars, leads, harnesses and cat collars!  And for all of you who love to pamper your pet, Cheengoo also has a fabulous boutique on Union Street in the Marina neighborhood.  Check out Cheengoo’s website or visit the store at 2250 Union Street, Suite 1A

Here’s a sneak peek from Carmelita’s photoshoot!  She is a fun loving 7-year old (super photogenic and a total ham!).  More pics coming soon!

Poesia Restaurant

I shot some photos at Poesia Restaurant over in the Castro a couple weeks ago for NOVO Magazine.  They made specially prepared dishes for the photoshoot! I have my new Canon extension tube to thank for the lovely closeups… (thanks Santa!)

Ponette

I love my cat Ponette…  I simply adore her.  She has been my partner in crime now for 9.5 years – I adopted her when I was a junior in college (shhh!), she was 12 weeks old.  She’s been with me since 2000, and since has lived with me in Easton, PA, NYC, back in Easton, over to San Francisco and now in Oakland.  She’s a very silly little girl and with age, her canine teeth have grown into full out fangs.  I love it when I catch her sleeping upside down (or at least her head’s upside down) and her fangs are hanging out.
