So every week, I've done a mini shoot of my wife to see how our little one is growing. We are so excited for the coming new addition to our family. I'll post a few of these at a time every now and then...

A few weeks ago, my wife and I took a last minute trip to Oceanside with our friends Jeff and Morgan. We cruised around with the top off the jeep, played some random games with a volleyball, threw a frisbee around (with purposeful dives to get into the water), and just took in a great view. 

It's been a while since I've been to the beach and I think that makes it all the more enjoyable.  When I lived in Costa Mesa, the beach was so close I took it for granted.  

I brought my Mamiya 645af with me and just had some fun with it.

It definitely does some good to just take some time to be aware of the beauty that can be found all around us. I had some fun taking my Canon EOS 3 film camera on a walk.

The last 2 images are of the 2 dogs that wander around our neighborhood a lot and have become regular visitors.
