County Fair

We spent last week at the county fair.  We have been going for years now and every year I say I am going to take the camera and tripod out on the midway but never have...

untill this year! 

Finally I tried the midway ride lights~

I had a Tamron 17-50 2.8 lens, iso 100, Canon 7d

Imperial Sand Dunes

Spent a long weekend a couple of weeks ago at the Imperial sand dunes in southern California near the Arizona/California border.  We stay in a RV near
the "plank road" historic site http://www.desertusa.com/sandhills/plankrd.html . 

Can you imagine crossing the dunes that way -

 talk about an adventure!!

Also close by is the International border fence between California and Mexico.  It snakes across the dunes and you can see it for miles.  We went over to take a couple of pictures.  It wasn't long before I could see a vehicle making it's way over to us.  Not wanting any trouble since there are markers saying to stay back
we decided to head back over to our camp. 

Did grab a couple shots while by the fence~

Jennifer & Bryon Football engagement session

Here in southern Arizona the weather is warm & sunny most of the year but the afternoon we had planned for

Jennifer & Bryon's engagement session turned out to be windy & rainy. 

No worries - this couple jumped right in anyway

and brought props! 

Both Jennifer & Bryon share a passion for football so 

there was a special order ball and custom jerseys!

They rocked thier engagement session with laughing,

tackling and quiet shared moments showing a

couple that truly fits together.

  

Congratulations Jennifer & Bryon on your engagement. 

I know your ceremony aboard the Sapphire Princess Cruise Ship will be gorgeous and you are destined to many

beautiful happy years ahead!

Jennifer I know you want to get a peek so here you are~
