32

When I was invited to photograph this family reunion they booked me a year in advance.  I don’t think my family can plan a month out let alone a year. I don’t usually do this for groups this large but I decided once I was there to take invidual shots of every member of the...

Benders + Bathtub

After yesterday’s post I wanted to show off my bathtub a little more. Obviously I won’t be giving it up. It’s just too awesome. I have some pretty major Bender Family love.  Thanks for taking a “photo bath” with me. Check out Julia’s blog if you want to stare at Ro-Ro a little more.

I photographed a simply amazing Christmas gathering and dinner at a home right on the Strand in Manhattan Beach. They invited a...
