Kaitlyn’s 1st Birthday

Two weeks ago, Karen and I went to Camarillo to celebrate Kaitlyn’s 1st birthday. It was great to hang out with the Wu’s and to finally get to visit their beautiful new home. The party was filled with little ones running around and was a perfect opportunity to take some children’s portrait shots.

Here were some from that day:

Southeast Asia Travels

Three weeks ago, I went on my annual Alpine Furniture. business trip through southeast Asia. This years travels took me to Vietnam, Malaysia and Indonesia.

My business trips are usually really quick and don’t include any free time to sight see or take pictures. I was determined to not let that happen again this year.

On my last day in Vietnam, I was able to take a few street shots while on my way to the airport.

In Jakarta, Indonesia, I finally had a day to go out and sight see. Unfortunately with the traffic there, I was only able to hit up two spots, the Monas in Jakarta and Botanical Gardens in Bogor.

Happy Chinese New Years!

On Sunday February 14th, the Chang family and I went to the Hsi Lai Temple to celebrate Chinese New Years. To say the place was packed is an understatement!

Here were a few shots from that day.

My Niece Carolynn

For Valentine’s day weekend, my brother-in-law Derek wanted to surprise my sister, Cindy with a night out alone. What does that mean? Our first sleepover with my niece Carolynn!

It was great for Karen and I to spend some quality time with Carolynn and also a wonderful time to practice what it will be like with a kid in the house. Overall, it was a lot of fun, and not as hard as I thought it would be.

The next day, Derek and Cindy came by to pick up Carolynn. I took it as a great time to get some family portraits.

Here are some of my favorites:
