The venue...University of the Pacific in Stockton CA. Being on this campus makes you forget you are in Stockton. As soon as you step foot on campus, you feel like you are in the East Coast, perhaps Massachusetts...Growing up in Stockton, I never got the chance to really appreciate the beauty of this college campus. Although I have been on campus many times as a child/teenager for Hula practice, New Edition concert, or simply just running up and down the stairs of the football stadium, I never allowed myself to appreciate the beauty of the landscaping and the buildings.
My recent family photo shoot was on this campus, Stacy grew up in Stockton, had the opportunity to live on campus as a resident adviser in the dorms while she earned her Doctorate degree, she was very familiar with all the buildings, so she gave me a campus tour. She now works at Delta College and she told me that she takes her students to campus for a field trip so that they can appreciate its beauty, because not many Stocktonians are familiar with UOP.
Martin is a high school teacher and teaches one of my favorite high school subjects, he is the yearbook advisor. We definitely talked a lot about photography, particularly about cameras and lenses. By the way, if you are in a position to upgrade your DSLR camera and lenses, and would like to donate your old equipment, contact me because Martin's school are looking for donations.
Sophia was darling to photograph, she may not have enjoyed the photo shoot, however, she posed and smiled perfectly on demand.
Carlo is 13 months old and he was so active, just like any 13 month old. He was fun to capture on camera; and I easily got a smile from him by simply playing peek-a-boo!
UOP provided an excellent back drop for this beautiful family...I just loved the Bagnasco family and here is why...
