Recently I had the privilege of taking Mireya’s senior portraits. She is a student at Bishop Diego High School, a sweetheart and a beautiful girl. I really had an awesome time getting to know her and creating these portraits for her.

Thanks for a fun session Mireya!

I love t-shirts and wear them pretty much every day. I’m not a very political person (I’m actually very much opposed to a lot of politics because it has become a profession as far as I ever see it, and I tend to stand off to the side watching everything, realizing I disagree with both sides pretty equally)

My good buddy Kenny knows this about me and is a man who’s always hunting for the next fun shirt to add to his collection, so when he keyed me in on the Everyone Poops t-shirt from Threadless.com I was AMPED! (sadly the shirt wasn’t available in my size.. so I petitioned you my blog readers to help vote for the shirt and get it re-printed. Well, it worked – along with probably me voting myself from 30 different email addresses!!)

Anyone else into expressive t-shirts? Any other sites worth checking out besides threadless?

Ashten drove all the way from Bakersfield California to have her senior portraits taken in Santa Barbara. She wanted to head downtown to this awesome brick wall that I absolutely LOVE, and then we went to the beach close to the wharf in Santa Barbara.

Ashten is super involved in theater and is staring in the show Little Women. I loved all the hats she brought along as well as her different expressions. Check out her slideshow for more images.

Hannah came to Santa Barbara from Bakersfield California to have her senior portraits taken at the beach. We took her to Henry’s Beach for her session and here are my favorite images. You can also take a look at her slideshow as well

Here is Melissa’s senior portrait session also taken at Knapps Castle in Santa Barbara. You can view all of her images by checking out her slideshow.

For 2008, one of our goals for Halberg Photographers is to expand our portrait services by adding Senior Portraits! We are so excited about this and can’t wait to photograph more high school seniors.

Austin, who works at one of Santa Barbara’s most chic clothing stores – Diani, was an awesome model! Her and I had such a blast on our portrait shoot. Check out some of my favorite pictures from the day:

Half way through the shoot her boyfriend joined us so we grabbed a few shots of the two of them together :)

I also put together a slideshow for Austin, you can see the rest of her pictures by clicking here

So I’m curious, what are some of your goals for 2008?
