So after an extended period of not updating my blog, I’m back to report that in about eight hours, I will be in an airplane flying to Dallas, TX and then another flight from there into Raleigh, NC.
My girlfriend and I planned a trip to fly out to North Carolina to visit some of my extended family. After talking with my aunt, she decided to plan a trip for eight of us to drive down to Orlando, FL for a five day trip to Disney World!!!
I have been to Disneyland, but not Disney World. This is the first time my girlfriend and I have taken a vacation together outside of Washington State, and our first time going to Disney World. This trip should be awesome and to top it off, looking at the weather forecast, there might be some lightning in the area!
I will be updating my blog throughout the trip and will post up some interesting pictures as soon as I can!
Stay Tuned!!!

Yesterday my girlfriend, Kendra, Rey and I went out to Titlow Beach in University Place, Washington to walk around for a while and enjoy the amazing sunny and slightly cloudy, although warm weather. I decided to take the opportunity to photograph my friends and also add a few more pictures to my portfolio.
The day continually shifted from bright sunlight into shaded spots from the clouds. This was a challenge for me to continually modify my flash power and aperture. Overall I was able to capture some quality photos.

These photographs are some of my favorites. These were all taken with the Canon 50mm f/1.4 prime lens and a Canon XSI. The “nifty fifty” 50mm f/1.4 is an awesome lens for portrait style pictures and I am always amazed by how sharp my photos are including the quality of bokeh.

As my girlfriend falls asleep next to me on the couch, I sit here looking out my living room window and see that it’s raining fairly hard. I haven’t been able to go out and take pictures of much lately and everything in my house isn’t very interesting.
I have a short shift at work tonight, 6pm to 9pm. Tonight will most likely be really slow, especially when retail sales are down, not to mention, the NYSE took a hit today and dropped like a rock. I might try to take a few photos of products or something to pass the time when I have nothing else to do.
Three hours until work and it looks like today will end up being fairly mellow.
