The Dills


I met Scott, Maima and Little Charlie at my cousin's baby announcement party.
Everyone could not get enough of Little Charlie.
Very animated and loves loves loves pickles.
Oh did I mention their last name is Dill.
Fits right?


Maima asked if I could take their family portrait and I gladly said yes.
I really had a great time with their family.
I think I talked too much the whole session though.





I suggested getting some photos of just mom and dad.
Scott knew what I wanted without me having to say it.
The tickle method. Sounds weird right but it works!
I live for candid shots and they were giving very fun ones left and right.
I think I even yelled "Save it for the camera!".



This shoot definitely reminded me why I love photography.

"Just Us" Day

Knowing that the next couple of days are going to be really hectic,
Amado and I decided to take it easy and unwind at the Getty.
Even the weather was cooperating with us.



I really love the Getty museum.
Its much more relaxed. You can take your time going from one exhibit to another
and take breaks in between.
Sit on the grass area or the cafe and soak up the sun.






They had a few good exhibitions open this time.
Really enjoyed the Paris Life and Luxury.
Great photos from the Revolutionary Project: Cuba.
And Amado really took his time with the Gods of Angkor exhibit.

I was really drawn to this one.
Mostly light colors but a still very pronounced subject.
And I really like how she's a bit fidgety. Her hand was probably the only thing
she was able to move while she was told to stay still.


Amado's favorite was the statue of Mercury.
"Jeremy Scott Adidas", I told him.

And then theres Lady Gaga.




And of course part of our trip was to eat. The indoor cafe is definitely less crowded
than the outdoors one.
Food was good too and not overpriced.

Ryan and Holly's Wedding Shower

I am so looking forward to my cousin's wedding.
Two weeks left.
Still have a few loose end to tie up but minor details from our end.
Honestly I just want to party with these people.
I love these girls.
I told em that I would definitely want to use them as models when I get a chance
to do a styled wedding shoot.
And finally a photo of me and Amado.
Thanks Jade.
See Holly, I didn't delete it!

Papa's Got A New Bag

Papa's got a new bag.
Not me. I wish.
Amado.


We were only supposed to go in for a wallet but he walked out with a new bag.
I actually really like this bag.
I kinda want one too but they only have it in one color.
We share everything except bags.
I'm not really sure why but I think our style differs when it comes to bags.

Big enough for the amount of stuff he usually carries.

Hydrangeas

I've always wanted to buy hydrangeas but its always so expensive.
Yes, I am cheap.
I tagged along with my Aunt the other day while she prep for her son's wedding
and we stopped by a flower shop.
$8 for 5, sold!
Too bad I can't smell anything.
