Happy New Year!

Happy New Year everyone!

I just wanted to take time to thank my clients and friends for being faithful supporters of my work in year 2007. And to my family who enables me to do what I love to do.

I promise to make 2008 more exciting for Ambient Photography Studio.

Every year I make list of things that I want to achieve for myself and for my business, but this year I am just going with one. (don't worry there still is a "things to do list")

I want to be truly a "g-o-o-d person" - Does this make me sound like a bad person?, but

I came to believe when I achieve this goal of mine, everything else will follow.

It is just one resolution, but I think I have a lot to work on so please send me your encouragements through out the year.

I wish you the best of luck in year 2008!

Snowing Sunday in Bel Air

Snow in Los Angeles? Yes I saw the snow falling from the sky and two reindeers in Bel Air today. I was commissioned to shoot Daily's 10th Birthday party.

This family of six really put their love together to help Daily celebrate her birthday with her friends; Dad was helping with pop corn machine & snow cone maker, mom made sure there was enough snow in their backyard, older brother baked cake and two little ones helped to make sure everything went smoothly. Here is one of my favorite image.

Happy Thanksgiving !

After we bought out first house three years ago, we started our own tradition of having my side of family over for Thanksgiving lunch at our place because Andy's family have their traditional Turkey Dinner every year. It's busiest time of the year for me, but I had a great time cooking for my family this year. I am not a big fan of turkey meat and so are my family, but what's Thanksgiving without roasted turkey so I decided to make turkey this year. I used french reciepe for my turkey this year. My lemon cheese cake with lemon curd was big hit. I am so proud of myself for making my first cheesecake so perfect. I enjoy cooking, but I am not experieced baker because I really don't like sweets. Here are some photos of my non-traditional thanksgiving meal. Bear with me for not so professional photos. I was busy cooking!
