Huey Photo Session in GGP

By jason, December 3, 2011 on 7:21 pm | In family, photography, san francisco | No Comments

It was a nice day for some photography today in Golden Gate Park. We had planned on using the area between CA Academy of Sciences and the De Young but there was some kids fun run thing going on. But there are so many other great photo ops in that area so no big deal. Here are a few of my favorites:

Pictures at the Legion of Honor

It’s become an annual tradition now where we and the Wee’s exchange family picture taking duties for each other. This year, we used the legion of honor as our backdrop. The Wee kids were very well behaved and did a great job looking at the camera. The Wang kids… not so much. But we did get some here and there that were fun. Here’s a sampling.

Alissa’s first school picture

By jason, January 11, 2010 on 10:45 pm | In alissa, photography | No Comments

She’s sporting her fake smile and she’s too short to reach the floor. For some reason she looks kinda pudgy to me. And we thought it would be a 3/4 length picture so she’s still wearing her play shoes… oh well. But as far as school pictures go, not bad.

More scans of old pictures

By jason, October 31, 2009 on 12:12 am | In family, photography | 1 Comment

My parents are in town visiting and brought some old pictures with them that haven’t seen the light of day in I don’t know how long. Here are some of the more interesting ones:

Mike probably around 9 months or so is my guess. Probably at his chubbiest!

Mike around 14 or so? Probably the skinniest he’s ever been.

My dad and his buddies in college around 1958. Can you tell which is him?

Moment by Moment

By jason, August 9, 2009 on 11:42 am | In commentary, health, photography | No Comments

Some of you know that I volunteer my photography services with the non-profit group, Moment by Moment (click logo above for details.). It’s little more than a some time and a few dollars for me. However, the organization is managed by a few very dedicated people who really put their blood, sweat, and tears into this endeavor. Unfortunately, blood, sweat, and tears aren’t enough to keep the lights on so to speak. So if you happen to be looking for a great group to invest your charitable contributions with, please consider Moment by Moment. As it turns out, they are actually having a fundraising event September 12 if you’re interested in attending (contact me for details.) Otherwise, you can simply contribute by check or credit card. For checks, please make payable to Moment by Moment (Tax ID 55-0896956) and mail to Moment by Moment 1499 Sunnybrook Road Alamo, CA 94507. For credit card, you can submit via fax (925-407-2737) with the following info:

As a semi-unfair tug at your heart strings, here’s a picture of Amanda when she was in the hospital a few months ago.

The Picture People

By jason, July 24, 2009 on 10:10 pm | In alissa, amanda, ashley, photography | 2 Comments

Bonnie found a coupon for the picture people so we decided to go get some family pictures done. Alissa was a little shy and cried for a bit but we ended up with some decent pictures.

The setup is kinda generic, but the formula is pretty tried and true. I personally prefer to do outdoor pictures with “real” backgrounds, but generic isn’t necessarily bad in this case. Also, it’s kinda hard for me to take my own family pictures so this will have to do for now. Maybe when the kids get a little older, I’ll try some on my own with a tripod.

Annual Holiday Huey photo session – 2008

By jason, November 30, 2008 on 9:58 pm | In family, photography | No Comments

Alissa and I went over to the Huey’s with white backdrop in hand for the annual holiday photo session. Although we added Devyn to the mix this year, things went pretty smoothly and I think we got a lot of keepers.

This one is definitely one of them:

And here are some more with the backdrop in play.

For those of you out there who are interested, this is just a large white sheet from Joann Fabrics doubled up and sewn together at the seams. (I think I bought a 10′x20′ piece.) I used to use this with my professional lighting and backdrop kit which I have since sold. But as you can see, a couple tripods and natural light from a large window does a pretty decent job as well.

Canon 135mm 2.0L

By jason, July 18, 2008 on 8:54 pm | In alissa, commentary, photography | No Comments

I added another lens to my arsenal with the Canon 135mm 2.0L. It’s one of the sharpest and most highly regarded lenses in the Canon stable and I’ve had my eye on it for quite a while now. I haven’t had a chance to put it through it’s paces yet but here are a couple more of Alissa and her noodles.

Rest assured, many of the pictures I post here in the next couple weeks will be made with this lens though.

Forgotten pictures/videos

By jason, June 28, 2008 on 11:26 pm | In photography, video | No Comments

Bonnie has had her cell phone for about two years now and I finally got around to pulling the miscellaneous pictures and video off it today. Here are a few of my favorite ones (quality isn’t great) with the whole group here. It’s kinda fun to look back at the random things that were captured. Makes it feel like the last couple years has just flown by.
