Real Estate Head Shot with Scott O'Hara

Received a call from a friend the other day to help him with a new head shot for his real estate business. It was nice to catch up with him while doing the photo shoot since we both barely have any extra spare time these days. Real happy to hear he is doing well and has some deals in the works.

5 Steps to the Ocean

Took a quick walk down to the beach this evening to capture some of the gloomy clouds rolling into town. There is actually no beach left, the ocean comes all the way up to the rocks on South Strand in Oceanside, CA. During the winter in Oceanside the beach is stripped away by the ocean and there is literally nothing left by the end of the season. Right before the beginning of summer Oceanside will dredge in a ton of sand from the Oceanside Harbor or right off the coast. Loads of sand are deposited onto the beach where some guy in a huge bulldozer evens it all out. If you haven't seen this done it is quite impressive to watch.

"Big News" - I'm getting married

Well...., some of you may know and some of you may not know that Michele and I will be getting married in June of this year. Michele is my best friend and I can't wait to spend the rest of my life with her. I love you Michele.

For better or worse, through thick and thin,
I'll be there by your side
sharing the laughter and the tears
through life's uncertain ride.

We don't know what the future has
in store for you and me
but this I know, without a doubt,
the best is yet to be.

Each sculpture is three-dimensional and full size, these are just images of the sculptures. Dimensions are below each image for reference.
