For most of my life, I have wished myself out of San Diego. When people look at me like I'm crazy to want this, I tell them that I miss the rain and the seasons of pretty much everywhere else in the world. But for all my wishing to be elsewhere, I know I have it pretty good. Especially since, with all this sunshine, it makes my job as a natural-light photographer very easy indeed.

Mike, Marisa and I went down to Old Town, San Diego to have lunch with some friends and shoot a family session for them. Along the way, we took a few photos for ourselves. (The photos that I am in were taken by Marisa and post-processed by me - Thanks, Marisa!)
