Deep below the peaceful facade of the UC Davis campus, evil villains line a stark concrete gauntlet, ready to pounce on the innocent. The only hope for the poor soul who ventures down below campus is Monica and James – action heros!

I love this concept from last weekend’s Davis photography session with Monica and James! We were exploring the open courtyard below a building on campus when we started talking about how the place could be the setting for an action video game. Yes! We had a great concept for that location!
Meet James and Monica!

We were having lots of fun!!

In November, doing outdoor lifestyle photography in Davis you never know what sort of weather you will encounter. This weekend we had great, warm weather in Davis!

Walking around we found this bench in front of one of the few brick buildings in Davis.

We walked over to the UC Davis Arboretum.

Yes, we are still in Davis!
We finished up near Putah Creek downtown Davis as the sun was about to set.

A nice ending to a great afternoon shooting with Monica and James in Davis!

I had a lot of fun yesterday taking photos around downtown Davis with Katherine and Kevin. It was a great day and the trees were just starting to turn colors. We had to get this afternoon shot under the trees.

We loved these flowers!

We wanted to use the red phone booth downtown Davis.

This next photo was taken when we started shooting. We met up at the Davis train station and right when we were about to get started a train pulled in. We ran over and quickly got some shots right before the train pulled back out of the station!

One fun thing about walking around is finding new locations and interesting backdrops. We ran across this coffee stand when we were headed for another spot – and had to get some images at the coffee stand.

Meet Ray and Alana!

I met Alana and Ray at the train station yesterday morning for their Davis photography session. We met up at the train station, but we didn’t stay long. We headed in the direction of the Davis campus looking for cool backdrops where we could do some fun concepts.
Ray and Alana.

I love the way they laugh together!

We had been shooting at this bench and we were about to take a break, when all of a sudden Alana was in Ray’s arms!
