Goat Head’s Beach
Harbor Seals
Art Information:
title: Beauty of Sonoma
client: self
creation date: 2010
location: Goat Head’s Beach, California.
While i was out with Andrew, we decided that we would go and see the seals. Truthfully, i think i was more excited about seeing the seals more than he was. Both of us were armed with our canon cameras and took some pictures of the beach itself before finally finding some seals. Sadly, there were signs all over the place saying that it was illegal to be less than 500 feet away from them.
That was a bit too far for me poor little camera…
i think i managed to snag a few good shots of the seals before spooking them out!
WaynErica Photo Shoot
WaynErica at Lake Perris
Art Information:
title: Family Portraits
client: Erica Tara Lily Parker and Wayne Wadler
creation date: 2010
location: Lake Perris, California
Before my move to NorCal, I decided to stop by my good, old friends’ place over at Lake Perris. Because I hadn’t really “moved,” I still had a lot of my stuff in my car and I brought out my photographic portfolio. Erica was in it (from New York, 2006).
Somehow, we decided that it would be a great idea to take the dogs and show me Lake Perris. I said, “Yes! A lot of pictures!”
So, they wore matching outfits and the sunlight was more than perfect.

Japanese Tea Garden at Golden Gate Park, San Francisco. While I was visiting San Francisco with a good friend and her niece during the weekend of volunteering for Academy of Friends’ 2010 Oscars Night Party, we stopped by the Japanese Tea Garden at Golden Gate Park before going to visit an artist. I took some fantastic shots at that wee garden. This image is my favorite out of them all.

Before going to work today, I decided to google up my name under some of the microstock agencies I’m involved with (again, yes I know) and found a couple of new places where they’re featuring one of my photos.
Of course, Barack Obama had to be one of them…I mean, seriously, he’s making me tons of money–wish I were his personal photographer.
Anyways,, the website is in some Slavic language if not Scandinavian. I’m not sure which. Needless to say, I can’t read it, hahaha.

Now this one takes the cake.
I discovered this one just now. Yes, today! Honestly, I have no idea what the whole site says. My ex probably could tell you a couple words (that is if he hasn’t picked up on some more Russian in the last 5 years or so). Otherwise, I can tell you that the site seems very green and Russian.
Hahaha.
Seriously, thank God for Dreamstime’s policy on crediting the photographers for the editorial photos. Now, I’m starting to see my Obama pictures pop up everywhere…
I’m still wondering about all the Virgin Marys I’ve sold.
