About Me

My photo
Long Beach, California, United States
Welcome to my blog. Looking through my posts you will find that I love and have a passion for photography and although my expertise so to speak is in Sports Action, I have been getting into wildlife and senior portraits. No matter what I'm shooting I want to bring my client the best possible shot I can and give them / you a photograph that you will cherish for a lifetime. If your looking for someone to capture your child in action, to show the intensity and emotion in which your child plays, look no further. Just drop me a line (e-mail) at homerkenpo@aol.com. I cover most areas in Southern Califoria.

Family Pictures

As Friendships go this is a great friendship my family has with this family. My son was good friends with the young lady pictures here, which lead to him becoming good friends with her older brother followed by the family. As parents, my wife and I do our best with knowing the kids my son spends time with and if he goes to their home then we will get to know the parents.

They are a great family and have great kids, all with their own special personalities.

Now I don't shoot portriats and actually try to avoid it, but I am occasionaly asked to take various family / friends pictures, which I never turn down. I understand that most photographers will gringe when I say this, but my family and friends get their pictures for free. I have no problems spending my time taking their pictures or attending their sporting events and capturing them in action and giving them a cd with all the pictures. So when I was asked by this family to take some shots of the kids and didn't hesitate. I always have problems with posing but thought I did pretty good considering that I normally shoot sports action.
