Year in Photos: 2009 (part 1 of ∞)

2009 was an excellent year and will end excellently because in a about 12 hours I will driving to my last wedding of 2009 where I'll be shooting with my friend Brian Kent. Those will come at a later time, but for now I'll share with you some of my favorite and most meaningful photos I captured. After seeing how many fav's I have I've parted it into sections and not sure how many there will be, hence the ∞.

I was honored to have been able to document two funerals this year. I wont be posting the photos directly on my blog, but they can each be viewed here (viewing - funeral) and here.

Onto what will be posting, in no particular order but scenes will be kept together.
















Over the summer my girlfriend and I went kayaking in La Jolla, tons of fun!!






During the 2009 IBJJ tournement I saw Mike Colon!












































I'll wrap things up in the new year. Right now I must prep for tomorrow!

Hope you have a Happy New Year!

Vendor: Modern Chair Rental

Building relationships with vendors is super important in this industry and furthermore referring them is key for a lasting relationship.

Todays second blog post is a plug for my friends business, Modern Chair Rental located in La Habra.

They specialize in, you guessed it, modern chairs & furniture.

I helped my friend out by doing product photography for all his cool looking furniture. Here are just a few items he has available.














Check out Modern Chair Rental online or walk into their warehouse and see the furniture yourself =) Ask for Cesar and tell him Robert sent you!

Bun in the Oven & A Fresh Bun

About five months ago I was privileged to do a maternity session. I typically recommend having this session a month before the due date that way you look nice and big =).

These sessions are great, the mother to be loves these photos, but the consensus amongst the fathers to be is they think these photos weird. Not at all! Pregnancy's only happen a couple of times in a lifetime so you have to capture them while you can!

A 4 month old Bun:















Feel free to give me a ring if you'd like to schedule a session =)
