Trout Fishing

Today I caught the biggest trout I have ever caught!  It was a beast!  I saw him chilling at the bottom of the river net to some trees.  I tried flies, spinners, joe flies, and a ton of other stuff..  It wasnt until I put on a CHEAPO WHITE WALMART rooster tail when he took!  It was awesome!

Here he is!  Big as can be!

Another angle as I take him up

My lure

Sorry for the CAMERA PHONE quality.

Here is another fish I caught that day.  Not as big, but still a good size.  This guy put upa  good fight and did a cool JUMP twice out of the water.

I LOVE LIVING NEXT TO BUFORD DAM!

Flores Photoshoot

Once again I have done this familiy's portrait shots.  They use Valencia Photography probably every few months becuase their grandma loves shots of their birthdays, Christmas time, etc...  Here is a shot of Rosita with her favorite blanket!  (INFO:  Strobe on her left - floor level.  slaved to my canon 430ex on camera)

(INFO:  Strobe on his left slightly taller than him - half power - slaved to my 430ex on camera flash)

she is such a cute girl!  She has done this so many times she really doesn't need me to tell her what to do - I caught this when she wasn't paying attention...

Peyton - I still live with my parents

Peyton is smiling more and more each and every day.  Jessie loves to dress him up in shirts that say, "I still live with my parents", "Older chicks dig me", as well as monster trucks, outdoors stuff, and trendy cloths (I love his converse)    anyways - here are a few I took today while waiting for a family to show up at my house for a "real" photoshoot.

He is so cute!

Peyton 14.5 weeks!!!

Was playing around with some off camera lights...  Couldnt get them to "sync" up with my camera (no pocket wizards or sync cords yet - Christmas!) - but I did use the modeling light to provide some nice fill.

Jessie and Peyton - He loves hanging out with her!!

Peytonator and me chillin on the couch...

Peyton can't wait to be old enough to watch the tube!

Great Portrait Session!

One of my favorites - This was taken right next to a basketball court  - he was being really good - it was very cold outside!

Portrait Session

Lately I have been doing a lot of family portrait sessions.  It has been a lot of fun and very interesting.  The Buford Dam is a great location!

These kids were great sports - it was 9am and FREEZING!

This family was fun - They were very photogenic!
