Johnny B on TV

My brother John called me up this morning...only slightly random.

He asked if I could come by the local cable access channel TV studio this evening and be part of the studio audience for some show he was going to be featured on...completely random!


John's first professional makeup job?


Totally legit!


It's possible that one third of the studio audience was a Bradshaw.



"Hey mom, I'm on TV!"

A refreshing swimming hole above Fallen Leaf Lake. An afternoon nap with passing ducks on a Lake Tahoe beach. Capped off with an evening of shooting stars under the Milky Way.

Kim & Andreus' Wedding

My good friend Kim married a good man, Andreus. She was blessed to have her dad walk her down the aisle.

Just over a month later her dad passed away due to cancer.

Lon & Becca's Wedding

I've photographed a lot of weddings and posed many a large group shot. I've gotten pretty good at remaining well composed while being the one in charge and dishing out orders in situations such as this. I've also seen a wide variety of responses from different groups ranging from cooperative to difficult, attentive to unresponsive, etc. But nothing prepared me for today's group.

Not only were they cooperative and easy to work with, but after I had them all arranged and was about to ask them to smile, they spontaneously began to serenade me with the ABC's!!! This was brilliant, because it put a smile on everyone's face and kept their attention focused, instead of fidgeting or moving around. Their photographer however was caught completely off-guard and stood there speechless while trying to remain composed because it was so beautiful.

Becca winds up for the pitch.
