Windmill Wedding: Jacqueline & Spencer

Ceremony Location:  Queen Wilhelmina Tulip Garden

Other Venues:  Sutro Heights Park,  Legion of Honors

Reception:  King Wah Restaurant

Engagement Session

I was up north this weekend covering the Wedding of Jacqueline and Spencer. Going through the security scanners at the airport was a breeze this time – the lines the short because I can only surmise that folks were afraid of flying on the 10th anniversary of 9/11.

The day (09/10/11) was extremely popular for Weddings. We must have bumped into four other Wedding parties at the various venues we photographed at.

Mason @ 4 months

Wow, my son is now about 4.5 months old.  Here are some updated photographs of him from a few days ago.

Mason recently started turning and sleeping on his tummy at night. With the fear of SIDS (Sudden Infant Death Syndrome) properly drilled into me from Doctors, parenting books and online web resources, you can image that I was cautiously fearful for my son’s well-being. Everytime I check and discover him in this “dangerously compromising” position, I’m torn between letting my boy sleep or taking a chance that flipping him tummy-side up would wake him up and start a bout of endless wailing.  He’s been turning back around more often during the day, so my fear of nighttime SIDS have been assuaged somewhat. What do some of you new parents do in my situation?

Newborn: Mason

Hello everyone,

I am ecstatic to announce the birth of my son Mason. Mason was born this morning at 9:57am and weighed in at 6 lbs and 14.8 oz. He measures 20 inches long. Both mother and son are fast asleep as I write this blog. That dang leg compressor of Cindy’s is keeping me awake. Stay tuned for some photographs later.

Let’s start off with photographs of Sophia I captured the day before.  I decided to post her images as well since they were in same memory card.  Sophia greets me everytime I arrive home from work and this past Friday was no exception. Only this time, she ran to me with the pair of Hello Kitty boots. She looked so adorable.

The Grandparents tell us that Sophia was super-good and excited to come see her little brother for the first time. When she arrived, Sophia tells me that “he wants me to hold him” while pointing to Mason.
