On December 12, 2010, I had the great honor of photographing my biggest childhood sports hero, Willie Mays.
My friend, Patty, works at Copperfield's Books in Petaluma, CA. They were having Mr. Mays for a rare book signing session. Mr. Mays' would be autographing copies his recently published and only authorized biography, Willie Mays: The Life, The Legend. In addition, he would be posing for photographs with kids 12 & under. I was thrilled when Patty asked me if I could do the shoot!
Well over a hundred people lined up around the block for his autograph. Mr. Mays was very gracious to everyone. He was especially good with the kids. Even with some infants and toddlers who were not in a cooperating mood, he had a big smile on his face. He really enjoyed being with the youngsters. Pretty good for a man who's nearly 80. By the way, I shook his had and he is still very strong! All proceeds from the event went to benefit his The Say Hey Foundation.
All in all, a fun time was had by all - especially me!

Saturday, July 31, 2010 at 9:09PM Louise and Ray have been married 50 years. We had a nice little session a few weeks ago. Well, maybe not so little. Between their children, grandkids, spouses, and great-grandkids we had 26 people to photograph!
Their daughter, Linda, got the family together for the shoot and everyone wore blue. The best part was they were all so nice and fun to be around.
What a testament to love, faith, and family they are!

Friday, July 16, 2010 at 11:24PM I have a wedding to do this weekend (can't wait) and I picked up some new equipment. Not very exciting: a westcott umbrella and bracket. I'll use this with my assistant holding the umbrella and flash off-camera (wireless). I was just messiing around and decided to take a few shots of Tanzie & Lola. I couldn't resist!
