Baby Shower!

I’ve been neglecting this blog. And I blame it all on grad school!  Initially when I started this blog I wanted to get back to writing more about my daily adventures, as well as blog about the fabulous people and beautiful babies that I’ve been photographing. But then I realized, with nothing but grad school and work all over my plate, I’m really not at all that interesting! I’d like to say that I’m working on it, and putting effort into really enjoying life and reaping the benefits of being able to attend the prestigious UCLA campus. I am after all, a BRUIN! but really, let’s be honest.. instead of working on it, I’m merely counting the days until I graduate from UCLA. Wide-eyed and eager young 1st year grad students need to steer clear of me! Because I’ve concluded, either I’m jaded.. or I simply have a really bad case of senioritis…. June 12 can’t come any sooner…

This past weekend, I threw my sister a baby shower for her second baby! Since the shower was co-ed the theme was babies and football! Also since I hosted it, I didn’t get the chance to snap as many pictures as I liked.. (my brother-in-law definitely has more of the details and set up !!) that was of course.. until my responsibilities as a host were over!

I could have never constructed this diaper cake without the help of my dear friend Jalyn! Oh and the #22… that’s Kharlo’s due date!

Gladys Jem - Hi Kristine! Thanks so much for stopping by my blog :) You made me smile. I am in Orange County right now and just finished the Jasmine Workshop where I got to hang out and get to know Anda. I love love love her. So I’m glad you found me through her. Anyways, yes I am about to graduate college and trying to balance photography at the same time. I’m glad I inspire someone to keep pushing through because so many people have inspired me to do the same. Keep up the great work :) you rock!
