Life This Week: Summer Camp, Pool Time, Night Out
Even though it's only officially been summer for a few days, it's in full swing for the Jester family. We just finished working two of four weekends at a family summer camp at Whispering Winds in the Cuyamaca Mountains east of San Diego. My son Jack is out of school for the summer and already embracing a summer schedule, meanwhile my wife and I are enjoying not having to schlep across town to and from the school. Life is good.

Life This Week - Life LAST week: Disneyland
I'm a little late on my weekly life post, but here it is. 100% family Disneyland photos.
***WARNING*** This post is photo heavy, even for me.
First things first: Feed the kids. Jack would need all the energy he could get. Flo's in Cars Land at California Adventure is THE place to eat.
Stopped for a quick family photo in front of the boardwalk. The employee that took this photo took the time to compose us and made a really nice family photo. Thanks man!
Saw Buzz Lightyear and Jack was excited to get a picture with him
Then Jessie came and we got to witness this little moment between cartoon lovers
Walt Disney is making headlines again
All Jack wants to do when he grows up is drive, thus Autopia one of his favorite rides
A) I think I found a secret target B) We broke down for a few minutes :)
This was the first trip that Jack was tall enough to ride the 40" rides. He was so excited to ride Star Tours!
The last ride of the trip was the Casey Jr. Train, note Jack clutching his light sabre for dear life
Life this week - Chipotle.....again
This week was interesting. Things were very very busy, but not a lot happened. The studio was slammed with product and people. Between visitors, temps and a lot of big handbags events coming up, it was a crazy week, but outside of that, not much to speak of. We went to Chipotle again...
Chipotle. We can't stop and we won't stop.
Packed studio
We were evacuated from the studio over some minor thing. It's a good thing some of us can still be fab, even in the parking lot in the hot sun.

Life This Week - Big Floppy Hats, Burrrrrritos, and CPK
Alesia and Jack outside of California Pizza Kitchen in Riverside, CA
Life this week through images. Everything was shot on the Fujifilm X100s. I went all color this week. I really love black and white for candid shot, but the colors on this thing with the Velvia setting are so beautiful, I couldn't help myself.
Product stylist Dani models this big floppy hat that we had in the studio this week. This one was the biggest, but there were others that came close.
Loretta chillin in the sitting area of the studio
Adam enjoys a Chipotle burrito on what turned out to be a pretty cold day by So Cal standards
Temp product stylist Breagan came back to us this week
Van is excited for Captain America: The Winter Soldier
Excuse the terrible window shot, but we are getting a pretty cool looking new railroad bridge. First span went into place this past week.
Hannah nestled in her seat outside of CPK in riverside. Dinner followed by shopping at a brand new Nordstrom Rack
Life This Week - A New Photographer, a Storm, and a Tour

This week we went to Nordstrom Cafe at the Galleria at Tyler in Riverside CA, Brought a new full time photographer into the studio at HauteLook, finally took a tour of the fulfillment center, and enjoyed an early spring storm.
All images were shot with the Fuji X100s.
