Happy Birthday Mari! {San Francisco portrait session}

Mon, 04 Apr 2011 15:09:49 +0000

I was asked to wait to post this session until after Mari’s birthday party- she wanted to keep her dress a surprise.I always wait to post sessions as requested by clients so mean while,

I’ve been sooo excited to post Mari’s Quinceaños (15 years) session. We hung out in San Francisco to shoot her session, so she would have pictures and a sign in book ready on the day of her birthday party.

Mari was a little reserved at first ( plus it was FREEZING)

however like an absolute Diva she ROCKED THE SESSION!! She brought fierce like I haven’t seen in along time!

Check it out:

Then we headed over to the Haight and had some ROCKSTAR fun!!

and since all shoots should reflect who you really are .. we hung out in daily clothes too.

Doesn’t she have an amazing smile?

Happy birthday!! AGAIN I wish you an amazing year!!

and can’t wait to see you Senior Year for a fun Senior session (HINT)

Leave her (or me ) some love in the comments!!

A very big Happy Birthday goes out to Miles!! He had the most amazing super here party ever! And seriously why wouldn’t you if you had this amazing cake and cupcake tower by Bratty Cakes!

However the party wasn’t just all cupcakes.

There was a strong person contest. they were all pretty strong

There were Super here capes to be made!

Cartoons were drawn!

Faces were painted!

and of course candles were blown out with dad’s help!! after he sang “happy birthday” to his son!

Man! I’m tired reliving the day! It was fun! I can’t wait until his 6th birthday!!!

Did you follow the Startup bus? Six buses arrived in Austin, Texas at SXSW (South by Southwest) and popped into Vast.com as the first of many stops.

I had fun On Tuesday morning hanging out with them at 7:00 am as the Silicon Bus bid departed.

Everyone gets mentally ready for the long journey ahead in their own way!

Fueled by Rockstars, redbulls and lots of snacks I know they are going to rip out some amazing products!!

Bauer’s limos was responsible for chartering these groups all the way to SXSW. Luckily they have wi-fi onboard!

Doing headshots for some of the team, gave me a qucik opportunity to get a glimpse into their personalities and know the bus ride was going to be a wild one! Here is a collection of thsoe headshots!

Spearheaded by Elias

and his trusted right hand mans..

Looking forward to seeing everyone next year for my 3rd year in a row, and who knows maybe I’ll ride with them to Austin next year!!

and they are off…
