Meet the Mellos. This family is dear to my little heart. You probably recognize baby Abbey from my earlier blogging. She is growing up! I've been photographing her since she was in Mommy Mello's belly. They had just come from seeing Santa so this was a big day for little Abbey and the family. She was all smiles and giggles playing with her daddy and looking at the huge Christmas tree in downtown Fullerton. Thank you Mello Family! I had fun capturing these Mello family moments!
A Little about me: When I was a kid I was surrounded by artists in my family. Both of my grandmothers, dear old dad, and my older brother were all amazing at drawing and painting. I tried to follow in their footsteps, but could never quite get there. That is until I picked up a camera in my first photo class in high school. I was hooked!
Any photograph that I take is an extension of myself. It is what I find to look cool, beautiful, funny, sweet, etc. I love the sculpted lines of a vintage car, the bright colors of a mural, the texture of old paint on a wall, the way the afternoon light warms a face, a dark silhouette against the sunset. I am fascinated by the way they can show love between a bride and groom, the sassy side of a woman’s personality, or the carefree attitude of a child. I love that my photographs tell it all without any words.
Great Lookin Fam Brother!
