Melanie and Jared!

Melanie and Jared got married at EOS Winery in Paso Robles, which was such a rad venue. Their wedding was incredibly beautiful, Melanie looked magnificent, Jared looked super studly, and their reception was more fun than should be allowed. CONGRATULATIONS Melanie and Jared! I'm so glad to have been a part of your day.

Melanie and Jared's Photobooth!

Melanie and Jared's wedding was off-the-hook-crazy-fun. One of the reasons it was off-the-hook-crazy-fun was their off-the-hook-crazy-fun guests. There wasn't a better place to be on October 11 than EOS Winery in Paso Robles. If you're thinking about doing a photobooth at your wedding, DO IT! It's a great way for you to get professional, super fun photos of your guests and you with your guests. Here's a sprinkling of the photobooth mayhem that happened at Melanie and Jared's wedding. If I'm shooting your wedding and you think you'd like to do a photobooth, let me know! I'd love to talk about it.

Cameron!

I recently had someone threaten to stop checking my blog if I didn't post more photos of Cameron. So I'd better get my act together. :) We love this little guy - our hearts explode about 10 times every day just looking at him. Being a parent is the most amazing thing I've ever done, and every day gives me a joy that I hadn't known until I became a father.









Cameron is on the verge of crawling. He scoots around by pulling himself with his arms, and can pretty much get anywhere. He tries to get up onto his feet instead of his knees though, and almost every time ends up doing this funny thing where he twists his waist and puts one of his feet way up in the air. So funny.











Cameron's favorite time of his baths are when we finally stop washing him and he can grab the washcloth and suck on it. The entire bath he's trying to get it into his mouth, and he looks so satisfied when we finally let him have it and he can suck/drink the water out of it.



We've got him in a pretty good routine: eat, bath, story, bed. The end of bath time is pretty fun - Courtney picks him up out of the bath and carries him over to where a towel is waiting on the ground. She then wraps him up, and I come running over and we both start going, "OH NO! A burrito! A baby burrito! AAAAAHHHH!!!"He loves it, and smiles the entire time. He's come to expect it so that when Courtney wraps him up he looks over at me and waits for me to come running over and make the "OH NO, IT'S A BABY BURRITO!!" exclamation. :)













This is one of my favorites:





Here's Cameron with Bumpa from a month or so ago:

This Morning

As we do most weekends, we headed to Joe Momma's coffee house in Avila Beach (located inside Nekkid Day Spa) this morning for some coffee. They've got the BEST COFFEE IN THE WORLD. It's a fact. If you haven't gone before, you need to. They've got incredible baristas who really know what they're doing, and a Clover machine (a rare $12,000 machine that brews single cups of coffee). It's our weekend treat. The Hills accompanied us. Here are some photos of them as we walked the pier post-coffee. A photo of Cameron snuck in there somehow.
