Thanksgiving

Happy Thanksgiving!! I went down to Goleta with Alexis to spend time with the family. Lots of good food and good times :) I am very thankful for all of my family, my friends, and the wonderful people that I get to work for. You guys rock!

The Jorgensen/Myers/Spangler posse.

Madelyn is so cute!

Rylee and Francy. It's cool as the babies get bigger, you get to see parts of their personality forming. Francy thought it was the funniest thing in the world when someone said "Paul Blart Mall Cop," the name of a movie that we were watching.

My mom, Alexis and I went on one of those red double-decker tourist buses. They drive you around Santa Barbara pointing out all of the historical spots. Sometimes it's fun to be a tourist in your own town :)

A classic shot of the SB Mission from the fountain. Seeing the Mission made me excited about Natalie and Dan's wedding that will be there next year.

I hope you all had a nice Thanksgiving!!

Chris and Leiha

I am so glad that I get to photograph Chris and Leiha's wedding next spring! Leiha is in charge of making all of the sports programs for Dos Pueblos High School. She arranged for Ryan and I to take photos of some of their sporting events to use in these programs while I was living in Goleta. This was  fun, and we became friends. It is an honor to take photos for a fellow designer, but also really cool to see a friend in such a good relationship! Chis is great, and it was nice getting to know him while we were doing the photos. You can also see more in the SLIDESHOW.

These first photos were at the Lane Farms pumpkin patch.

The eucalyptus trees out on the Ellwood bluffs are a cool photo spot.

Francy Ella Spangler

My cousin, Rylee and her husband, Phil, had a beautiful baby girl on Thursday (6/11). Francy Ella Spangler. They were home from the hospital, and I got to go visit them and see the baby. Here are some photos:

Phil's parents drove down from Oregon to see baby Francy.
