Hsialoei And Scott's Maternity Session

Remember our brief heatwave a few days ago?

When I met Hsiaolei and Scott on Monday evening it was 35 degrees Celsius. Which I am pretty sure is about 211 Fahrenheit.

Hsiaolei suggested we shoot at Picchetti Winery because they have peacocks. And she likes peacocks.

Well, when we arrived the birds where nowhere to be found...go figure.

Despite the heat, these two where real troopers and we had a great time shooting and chatting and hopping from shade to shade. (it was really more of a crawl - heat makes me slow).

Thanks you two!

I think this is a "canvas kind of" picture, seriously, I love it.

 

And just as we called it a day, guess who showed up!

Nice bird, huh?

Camping in Tofino

A few weeks ago we joined Cameron's family for their annual trip to Tofino, British Columbia.

His family has been coming here for over 30 years, and if you've ever been there you understand why they keep coming back.

And if you haven't been there, pack your things now and go!

 


Tofino lies in the Pacific Rim National Park which is a stunning juxtaposition between rainforests and sandy beaches.








I am a "play in tide pools" kinda person, always have been, so if we find ourselves at a beach together, please don't expect me to sit still and watch the sunset. Or the waves. Pretty Please.

I can't, there are critters to explore!



































































 


























We where there for Canada Day (July 1st), so we all gathered on the Tofino waterfront and watched the fireworks.


























 
 





















And the rest of the week we did something like this:





























 


And quite a bit of this:

We had weather close to perfection, and the day we abandoned camp, we woke up to the kind of Pacific fog we know so well in the Bay Area.

Life doesn't get much better.

What's in the Works

I am working on a couple of posts.




One is on camping with this guy

The other is a maternity session with this one:

 

Don't ask, just stay tuned!
