Jeanne’s 50th birthday party


My friend Jeanne Logan asked me to shoot her 50th birthday party a couple of weeks ago and I jumped all over it.

I met Jeanne a few years ago when I photographed her home town of “Cookseyville.” Check out the audio slide show I did for The Bee. The Logans are very musical and very fun. There was a Roaring 20′s theme and a great venue atop a hill in Dinuba with a great view of the Valley. I was happy to be there to capture her milestone birthday (I’m not too far behind you Jeanne).

It reminded me of visiting San Francisco as a kid and seeing such attention to detail everywhere you look.
