Recently my cousin sent a box of negatives he found at my grandpa’s house to a scanning company to get them digitized. Looking through them, I’m reminded why I love photography so much.

There is nothing quite like the story that photos tell.  Whether it’s your wedding day or a specific moment in time capturing your family, all photos tell a story.  I love the idea that the photos we take today are the ones our grandkids will get to look at and piece together the story of where they came from.

These photos tell a little bit about where I came from on my Dad’s side.  It is a little trip through time with my grandpa, my grandma and my dad on trips or in front of a 1950′s Eichler home in a little suburb called Palo Alto through grandparent visits to snowy Colorado to trips to the beach with my brother and I as kids.   And of course the stories we live continue, check out our family now. Just like the photos of my dad as a teenager bare an uncanny resemblance to me as a teen, I see the similarities in my brother as a baby and his little son.

Enjoy!

This last weekend when Oscar and I were down in Southern California to visit some friends, we did a photo shoot with his sister, brother-in-law, and baby nephew Danny.  Danny just turned one years old and is absolutely adorable. Check out the photos from the shoot!
