Trip to Guerneville, CA

in the light

Last week it was all about dusty, dirty, broken down buildings.  Sometimes admiring the old and decay of the world is a good experience, but getting out to the beauty of nature and enjoying the fresh air is probably on the healthier side.  I drove north to Guerneville, CA with my sister, future brother-in-law (Pete), Issa, and my friend Tim, to take photos and check out the location of my sister's wedding this coming May.

The venue is absolutely gorgeous, and the surrounding is just as nice.  I took a few photos around the "downtown" which is two city blocks long.

Then ventured to the Armstrong Redwoods State Natural Reserve with Tim while the others did tastings at the wedding place.  It was pouring rain.

My camera and I were completely drenched, but the weather sealing did a great job of keeping out the water out of the camera.  Then we ventured out with the group to Jenner where the Russian River meets the ocean.  It was really storming and super cold!  Here's the proof:

I'm obsessed with disruptive apps, cutting edge tech, social game mechanics, social network development, software security, and all things code.

Photography
Photography is one of my biggest passions. Historically, it has been a hobby of capturing stories within still images. I photograph weddings, engagements, travel destinations, landscapes, various events, and many good cause events as a volunteer.

I shoot with a iPhone 4S and various Nikon SLR gear. I'm available to shoot events, weddings, and engagements. I am also always happy to volunteer my time to photograph good cause events.
