This past weekend was full of Korean tradition! Not related at all and total coincidence. Sunday morning after my wonderful day at Rich & Yun-Jin's Korean wedding I got to photograph Alex & Sam's first birthday celebration. It was so cute to see them in their little Korean outfits. They had the same type of alter setup I had just seen for the first time the night before. I do not know what it is called however, maybe someone does?
On to the photographs.
Meet Sam on the left and Alex on the right.
They weren't quite sure what to think and Alex was really interested in tasting everything!
A little detail from their outfits.
Just too darn cute.
break time, getting photos taken is hard work. Little ones need to be re-energized.
Fun shot with Mom.
Such a sweet moment between Sam and Mom and Dad. I just love both of these images.
Cake! On a side note it was really funny how differently Sam and Alex approached their birthday cake. Sam totally devoured her piece and it was all over the place while Alex very selectively chose pieces to eat off the cake and her piece still resembled cake when she was done.
Such a pleasure it was, and I can vouch that the cake was out of this world yummy.
My passion for photography has brought me from New Mexico to Philadelphia. I fell in love with the change of seasons, the city, and its people.
Photography has always been a part of my life. My family has a rich history of photographers: my grandfather and great grandfather were amazing photo hobbyists. I have some great photographs from my family dating back to the later 1800's and early 1900's. It's amazing to see a photograph of what your mother looked like on her wedding day, when she was pregnant with you and how young she was, because sometimes we forget I was phhotograpghed constantly as a child and having those pictures today is priceless. Photography is history. The images you make today will be passed down for generations. I love bringing that Joy to others.
I approach photography with a documentary mindset. I concentrate on light, perspective, compostion and expression. I make art that will remain with a family for generations.
