Always looking for something new I asked one of my models
to pose for "old time Hollywood" look photos.  She was great and here is one of my favorites.  You can check out the rest under "Hollywood Style" on my web-site; www.bdazzledphotography.com

 

My mom, sister, nephew and I made this huge gingerbread house for the centerpiece of our Christmas Eve table.  We all had a great time trying to piece it all together.

Christmas Eve at our home.  A funfilled evening with family and friends.

This year we had our "First Annual Senior Company Christmas Party"  Some of the girls
will be going away to college next year so this will be a fun tradition to get us all together each year.

Today I had a photo shoot with this beautiful newborn.  Just 2 1/2 weeks old and already a star.

Another family photo.

This is the new Christmas backdrop I used for the "Nutcracker" pictures at the studio. I even talked my family in to posing for me.

Kylie and I shot Nutcracker pictures today...I love this picture of her.  Can't believe how quickly she is growing up.

Yerba Buena Lighthouse.  I added this picture to my blog for my Mom because she loves lighthouses and checks to see what's new every week.

Granite Chief Wilderness

On our last day at Lake Tahoe, Frank and I found a wonderful new hiking trail "Granite Chief Wilderness"  At the end of a 2 1/2 mile hike we were rewarded with the first of five lakes at the top of the mountain.  We can't wait to go back to explore the other four lakes when we have more time.

Frank and I had a great weekend at Lake Tahoe.  Here is one of the beautiful sunsets from our trip.

The assignment for November's Camera Club Meeting is "Body Parts."  Here is my image.

Below are two of my favorite smoke pictures.  I hope to add them to the Pleasanton Library Show for the Livermore Valley Camera Club.

I had a "Haunted Halloween" shoot over the weekend.  The girls were great and
really fun to work with.  Here is the first picture from the shoot.

This picture of a brown pelican will be my entry in the "Nature" category at this weeks meeting of the Livermore Valley Camera Club.  Frank and I enjoyed his funny antics while diving for fish each morning.

Here are four of the pictures I selected to hang at the Pleasanton Library as part of the
Livermore Valley Camera Club event.

Kayaking with Jody

Frank and I joined my sister for a kayaking adventure in Santa Cruz.  We all had a great day

Bodega Bay

Frank and I went to Bodega Bay for a long weekend.  We had beautiful weather and enjoyed
lots of walking and hiking.
