snapshots

I decided to throw these in the mix to break up all the different photoshoots and show something a little more personal to me. Friends,camping, and rockclimbing, a pretty awesome combination. Grant and I recently went camping with our good friends Jonnell and Todd and their two cute rugrats, London and Triston. We went to the Sequoia National Park and even got to climb off the railing at Moro Rock which is 4,000 feet above the valley floor. Pretty fun! By far the most fun about this climb was the comments we got from tourists watching. Amazing little London(3 1/2 yrs old) even insisted on climbing it "all by myself without daddy!"! pretty awesome! Here are some of my favorite snapshots from the trip along with a few i took real quick before we left for the trip. Hope you enjoy. :)

me climbing one of the side's of Moro Rock, photo taken by Grant Frempter. We set up a top rope from one of the railings at the top... rappelled down and then climbed up.

Little London climbing Moro Rock! Don't worry...London is completely fastened safely in her harness. Although it looks like Todd is holding her up with the rope, it is quite the contrary. Grant is belaying London behind Todd... meaning Grant is making sure London is completely secure with the correct belay devices etc. Todd is holding the rope to help take some of her weight and to direct her where to go. I know it may sound like BS saying "everything is safe, she's fine." But Todd is a fire fighter and teaches climbing safety, we have the upmost respect for climbing and its dangers and put great importance in being as safe as possible whenever climbing. Believe me, we also wouldn't have her climb unless she said she wanted to, and she insisted on climbing this rock. :) such a cutie. These photos will be pretty rad for her to show her friends when she is older!

About Me

Hi guys! I'm not much of a blogger per-say... but I decided to start one so my clients could see a little more into my personality and see photos from recent shoots that might not be on my website. I am a Portrait photographer (weddings, engagement, Family, baby, pregnancy, all that fun stuff) I am compelled to take photos that make you smile. I have a deep passion for my work and I absolutely adore what I do. I love candid shots.. that once pieced together can create a feel for the mood, relationship, time or event. I take pride in capturing and preserving precious memories. Hope you guys enjoy these photos, and I hope to see you soon! http://www.taylerenerle.com
