I Love Fair Photos

We took our annual trip to the Orange County Fair last week.
It was the best trip yet.
Pig races, a crash-up derby and about 5 pounds of french fries were just part of the fun.
But the best part, of course, was the photo booth session.
Go over to Lilly and the Brothers to see how they came out.



Besides the photo booth, I took heaps of pictures.
There are just so many great things to take pictures of at the fair.
I am especially in love with all the lights.
Here are a few of my favorites.














I took these letter Es with the intention of blowing up one of the photos and hanging it in our house.
(Our last name starts with E)
They are all a bit different.
Which one do you like best?








While we were walking around the fair, I thought how much fun it would be to do a family photo shoot there.
For one thing, we all love the fair.  (even Aaron loves it now--I've converted him)
And for another, there are just so many great photo opportunities.
Well, someone beat me to the idea.
My friend, Kristin, posted an engagement photo shoot she did at the OC fair.
Go look at it.
Amazing.
Kristin's work blows me away.
Every single time she posts a new session, I alternate between insane admiration and jealousy.
She's so good.
Go spend some time at her site and if you are in need of an amazing photographer, choose her.


In other news, I'm still on the crazy diet and I have a new recipe to share with you: Asian inspired rice noodle salad.  
Necessity is the mother of invention and I invented a great salad!
Can't wait to share it with you.
Love from,
Greta

My First Photo Shoot!

When my sister-in-law asked me to take pictures for their Christmas card, I happily agreed. I have been wanting to and scared to try a shoot like this for a long time. It was exciting to make it finally happen.

We met on Sunday at the Palomares House in Fallbrook. It was a beautiful afternoon and I took lots of pictures. Here are a few of my favorites.

Jay, Kelly and Veronica




Meet Beeker.
Beeker is Veronica's favorite pal. They go everywhere together.
Beeker was an important part of the shoot.
Have you ever seen a better dressed mouse?


I love this picture of Veronica and Beeker.


And here Veronica looks like a little mouse herself, peering through a mouse hole.


Do you see Beeker's tail in this one?



Thank you Jay, Kelly and Veronica for letting me take photos of you. I had a great time with all of you. Beeker too.
