Afrodite_ Las Vegas Children Photographer

It is not easy to be a teenager. Somewhere between childhood and becoming a woman.
Afrodite shared her room with me during my stay in Santa Barbara. She was a great roommate!  She explained to me how to use the remote control, I learned about Justin Bieber through the posters on the wall and also get some verbal information..
Coming from Las Vegas, I was cold in the California evenings.When she left to school in the morning she put her cover on the top of mine so I won't be cold.
We had a nice walk to the beach and enjoyed the sound of the ocean hiding behind a sand dune from the crazy wind, covered with towels. Thank you for the great time!

Athan 19 month old_ Las Vegas Children Photographer

Times flies by... I remember when Athan's mommy told me the news that she is pregnant. And there he is, almost 2 years old. He changed a lot since I last took images of him. He was a baby, sitting and crawling around. Now he is a big boy and hard to chase him to get some images. Always in the move. Interested to learn about everything. But he still doesn't want to share his thought in English, just on his own language.

Is he thirsty or just love to play around to see

how is the drink flows out from the cup. New game.

Santa Barbara

So for those of you who contacted me on Eastern weekend may know that I visited Santa Barbara. Had a great time! Visited a couple of places, spent time with friends and of course took a couple of images. I got so excited when I was driving between the mountains, surrounded by trees and orange fields and just greenery. The best part was when I reached and smelled the ocean! Amazing feeling!

The weather wasn’t always cooperating but we brought out the best of it!

Quietly nestled against a scenic mountain range, the Vedanta center in Santa Barbara overlooks the Pacific ocean. A convent of seven nuns oversees the maintenance of the 45-acre property, manages the bookstore and facilitates public activities at the temple.

Beautiful view to the ocean. Great place to live!

Wasn't really beach weather. We were freezing,

but it was relaxing to lay on the beach, protected

by a sand dune and covered with the towels :-)
