A Tahoe Sunset

After 34 years of coming to Tahoe with family for summer vacations, this would be the first time here in the winter. Of course, oddly enough while any other year there is plenty of snow on the ground, this year, not a drop. Either way it’s refreshing to see the beautiful landscape in its nocturnal mode as well as the incredible sunsets! Below is a sequence of tonight’s sunset taken over a 15 min time frame! It’s transformation during this time was spectacular! Enjoy!

Napa Ranch Engagement Session | Damion Hamilton | Napa Wedding Photographer

Welcome to the amazing panoramic view from our client’s soon-to-be living room! This beautiful Napa Valley scene was the site of our most recent winter engagement session in the back hills of Napa.  It was a stunning day and combined with the breathtaking 360 degree view from this hilltop, what a treat!  Though we can’t divulge more info about the clients, I will tell you that this engagement session, on the exact location of their future ranch home, featured great horses brought up by a sweet neighbor (really, they were excellent), beautiful antique chairs from 1910, two down-to-earth clients, and of course, some wine to enjoy on such a gorgeous day.    Getting to experience this view on a clear day has to be one of the most surreal experiences we’ve had in a while.  Of course, we brought home a little more reality with the cow pies on our shoes, but nonetheless….a very enjoyable day.  Here are a few other images from the shoot.

Love the artistry of these Lucchese boots.  Lastly, if you have ever wondered what a 9 carat, colorless and flawless center stone looks like, then search no more and enjoy this one.

Marsey & Nicholsen Family Portraits | Damion Hamilton | Napa Valley Family Portrait Photographer

What a joy to be able to photograph the Marsey & Nicholsen families again for the holidays. They are one good looking family!  We had a chance to capture them first at Lauren & Ron’s wedding earlier this year, so this was an extra special treat.  We hope you enjoy  the beauty of this family and the Napa Valley throughout the holidays!

Keep loving,

Julie
