BK shredding on his Ski- Doo

I recently had the opportunity to go riding with my good bro, Bryan Kiele.  There wasn't much new snow but we still found some fun spots to rip around near Mission Ridge, WA.
Here are some photos of BK shredding it up:

Some Favorite Wedding Images from 2010

We are finishing up what was an awesome first full year for Chris Ohta Photography.  Thank you to all of our brides and grooms, their families, the new friends that we have made along the way and our family and friends for their support.  We appreciate all of you more than you will know and look forward to future relationships and possibilities.  Our last wedding of 2010 will be New Years which means we will leave 2010 and enter 2011 doing what we love to do most, photographing weddings.  Thank you!!!
Here are some of our favorite wedding images from July 2010 to November 2010:

A family session in a snow storm...

On Saturday, we had the pleasure of doing a family session with the Delaney Family.  We were extra excited because we had not done a family session in a full-on snow storm.  We have shot family sessions in the snow but not like this.  We decided to do the session earlier in the day as the snow fall was only supposed to increase which it did.    We tried to come up with spots that would allow us to utilized the heavy snowfall versus having it hinder our session.  It was a shortened session due to weather but we were happy with some of the images that we were able to capture before calling it a day.    
Here are some photos from our family session in the snow:

Winter Project - Lifestyle

Here are some photos from a recent waxing session at a friend's house:

Meet Kota

Kota is the newest edition to our family.  She is half Golden Retriever and half German Short Hair Pointer yet she is ALL black. Apparently, Black is a recessive gene and the entire litter was all black.  She is a super sweet little girl and she loves to cuddle.  Our other dog Kalea already loves her and they love playing together. We were having trouble with a name for a bit and then chose Kota.  We were looking at other Hawaiian names that started with a K but didn't really like them for our dog.  It is a K and Ohta just shortened to Kota.
Here are some photos of Kota's fist day in our home:

Stoked for WInter...

This year, I am stoked for winter.  I haven't been as stoked for winter over the past couple years as I used to be but this year is different. We just finished our first full year of operating Chris Ohta Photography and we are looking forward to what we hope is another fantastic year.  I am also back playing in the snow and working on a personal winter photo project.  We wish you all the best and hope you all enjoy the winter as well.

Here are some images that may be a part of my winter project:
