Studio Time

I had the fun of photographing two individuals this week in the Studio. First a little 7 year old Rosalia. Her grandfather is the publisher of The Community Voice Newspaper in Rohnert Park. She was hanging around in the office Tuesday, and I needed a subject. She was reluctantly willing. Her mom said to her, "She needs your help, and that's what we do". I liked that. She has 1/4 Indian (India), so her coloring is beautiful with those dark eyes. I did not have any of my props with me, so we explored and found a couple of pieces of material. She was up to the challenge of feathers, laces and teddy bears. This was just a piece of red lace. What a little Trooper!

Then along comes Matthew. I took some pictures last year when he graduated from high school. Living in one place for 20 years really has it's advantages. I knew his parents before he was born. So I have watch this wonderful young man grow up. So, it was really special for me to take pictures of him again. As serious as he looks, he is a real ham. His first year in college and working, and moving forward has been good for him. I might use some of his images for Stock photography. Just too funny!


I have an ad coming out in the newspaper in two weeks for Studio work. Don't put off that Family portrait in the studio or out. It's BEAUTIFUL IN SONOMA COUNTY
