The Cerrillo Family

I met Melissa a couple of years ago when I started a new job. It’s rough being the low person on the totem pole and not knowing anyone in the office. The first few weeks tend to be a blur of faces and learning processes and any kindness is appreciated. Melissa was one of my saving graces as the new kid. She showed me the ropes and never made me feel like I was just another part of the job. In time, we became good friends and besides our periodic chats during the workday, I looked forward to hanging out with her after work as well.

So, when I headed to Felicita Park to photograph Melissa’s family, I felt like I was meeting up with old friends. We had fun with Melissa’s kids hiking through the park, climbing rocks and fighting off bugs (sorry guys!). And I fell in love with the beautiful summer light and the forest of trees we spent most of our time in. All in all it was a wonderful afternoon.

Thank you for introducing me to Felicita Park, Melissa! I had a blast with you and your kids.

And now featuring 100% more Sahar!

My friend Sahar accompanied me on one of last weekend’s family sessions. Having just picked up her first DSLR, she was eager to check out the behind-the-scenes-inside-scoop of a working photoshoot. After making sure it was okay with the client, we approached the session as a team. While Sahar appreciated the experience, I sure enjoyed the fact that I didn’t have to lug my heavy bag around by myself!

After the session, we played with various settings on her new camera and took a few shots of each other in the waning sunset light.

Thanks so much for all your help, Sahar! I can’t wait for our FILM shoot this afternoon!

Something fun…
