On Location: Carlsbad Flower Field

I always try to make it to the fields once a year. The last time I went was a couple years back for an engagement shoot. It was super fun. Now I have a macro lens and haven't really taken advantage of it yet. It was a really bright day, so some of my shots look blown out on some parts. But it doesn't bother me too much. The flower field has so much to offer. Initially I thought it was just a field, but there are specialty flowers throughout the entire base of the property. I'm surprised I just noticed it now. I even Ryu enjoyed the spot. Smiling from ear to ear knowing spring time is here. 

The sad thing is, I don't know a lot about flowers. I can barely identify a rose. The colors are just so bright and catches my eye. I'm glad to see people bringing their family and camera out. One of the many things I do enjoy about San Diego.
Stand out where ever you go!

Like always...thanks for looking. Try to visit the fields too before they close. They close on Mother's Day. They usually have a brunch served on the fields. Not Allergy friendly.

Ron and Cheryl's Spring Tour Stop

My best cousin, Ron is finally engaged after so many years. I don't even know. I couldn't be happier for him. He is preparing for the wedding. He has a few photography friends ranging from professional photographers, professional videographer, to photo enthusiast(ie. me). Their plan was to have four seasons incorporated into their wedding book. I don't know which one. It sounds like a great idea. They already have a winter and fall session completed. While he's in San Diego we stopped by Carlsbad Flower fields to capture spring. It was amazing with all the colors surrounding them. One thing I love about friends and family, it's easier to get along with. I think thats where I lack as a photographer, telling people. I like to blend in the background and capture the moment that comes naturally. I'm very honored that the engaged couple picked me.

Before shooting the couple, I measured myself up to them. Man, they have some awesome photos already. Let me know how I did on the comments below. Like always, thanks for looking.
