Texas - Amy Perl Oakland Photographer

Ah, Texas. I went to Austin to visit my friend Bonnie Berry, www.bonnieberryphotography.com, and to travel the area in search of good photos...I think I found a few. :) It was fun traveling with another photographer who understood my need to stop for the seemingly most mundane of spots...This just fed my fire a bit, and now I need/want to go do more road trips! For me, the experience of the unknown, that's for me. If only I could convince my husband and kids how much fun driving around in 100 degree weather looking for (boring) things to take photos of is. Hmm..that may take me a bit longer.

I had a hard time editing, so I decided to put A LOT of photos up. This in only about 1/3/ of the total ones that I picked as my favorites!

Forgot to post these! Isaac and Avi in April

Ok,I am standing up typing this because Isaac has stolen my desk chair so he can play his Lego Star Wars game on my laptop. It's all downhill from here...

These are photos I took of the kids over spring break in April that I forgot to post. I just love them. They are sitting on our picnic table at Clearlake. This table is the center of pretty much every stay at the lake. It's location is a fixture to everyone in my family. It shows up in many many of my photos.

Isaac is holding up the newspaper because it's his birthday. April 6.

Summer is Here!

Well, the kids are out of school, and now they are hanging out at day camp...but before that, we went up to Clearlake. A great week. A week of NOTHING, but just being. Loved it. We had rotating friends come up and hang with us....and I am embarrassed to say that I barely took any photos....I was enjoying the air too much to even pick up the camera....nice to give my visual brain a rest though. I am attaching a few photos, not all of them, I'll get to that later (after I get back from Texas, yay Bonnie!) next week.
But here are a few snaps of Avi, (headless, he barely let's me take his picture any more...booo...) Isaac, Bea and others...I'm not going to name everyone's name, but they are all dearly loved. The second round of friends (you know who you are) will be posted next round.

Happy Summer!



GNATS!! ARGH!

GO ALAN!
