The Cutest Birthday

Last weekend, I was invited to photograph Ryan's birthday in Pacific Palisades.

It was a beautiful sunny afternoon - just perfect for Ryan and his friends to be outside, playing with airplanes, making bubbles, munching on french fries and hanging out with the adults.

A perfect day for Ryan to turn two.




Ryan LOVES airplanes, and became animated when he saw all the airplanes decorated on his cake:

Happy Happy Second Birthday, lil' Ryan!

The First of Many

Today, I got a text from my old friend, Karen, congratulating Reza and me on our first wedding anniversary. I was surprised and moved that she had remembered.

How can I not remember?, she replied. Your wedding was so beautiful and it was on 05-06-07. (Aw, thanks, K.)

Yes, May 6th, 2007 was a special day and it has been a special year for us. And as my grandfather would have said, Ninety-nine more of those years to come.



To my dearest Reza, thank you for loving me. Happy Anniversary.

I love you.

At the Happiest Place on Earth

It has been quite stressful for both of us. Between working at our jobs and working on our home, we barely have time to watch TV. So last weekend, Reza and I decided to visit Downtown Disney...just to be kids for a couple of days.

California Adventure Park








Our second day was supposed to be spent at Disneyland Park, but after checking into our Hyatt suite on Saturday night, we didn't care to leave. We slept like babies, ordered room-service and watched movies all day Sunday...until it was time to go home.

Anyone want our Disneyland tickets???
