Martis Camp Thanksgiving Buffet



Martis Camp hosted a delicious Thanksgiving Buffet in the Family Barn – just the barn alone makes me want to be a member! A huge red retro style building with all the latest technology to keep you and your family entertained – from a movie theatre to video games to a bowling alley to a basketball court to an art room to fantastic food… oh, not to forget the outdoor pool for the summer!


I set up a portrait corner in the gym in front of the way cool huge barn doors for quick family portraits in between all the fun. Everyone had a lot of fun, particularly that large group! Here is a small selection:

quick trip to the meadow with Mr. and Mrs. Mischief



The first “real” snow, Squaw opening day (rocks, anyone?), and I decided to get these two out into the white stuff… for, I’d hoped, some cute shots.

Myrmel family in Kings Beach



I met up with the Myrmels at their lake front home in Kings Beach on Sunday for a mini family session. A very cool car and my beloved sun flare made for some great shots!

Munich’s market



One of the world’s best market’s must be the Viktualienmarkt in downtown Munich, where you can find everything from fruits and vegetable, no matter how exotic, to meats, seafood and cheeses from around the world to local specialties. Not to forget seasonal decorations. Worth a stroll if you’re ever in Munich!

Munich



So I was back home for a couple of weeks and actually took a break, and not many pictures! Hard to believe! An early frost had killed much of the fall foliage – just like in Tahoe! –  and thus it was not too inspiring.

Some impressions…
