One thing I'm starting to get really good at is taking photos of people that come to the Albuquerque International Balloon Fiesta. Saw this family and just had to ask them to take a photo - so cute!

Good morning. 😊 Have a great day & God bless you.

The Albuquerque International Balloon Fiesta has ended. It was fun, but lots of hard work for the Official Photographer Team. Enjoyed seeing past team members again & meeting new ones.

October is the start of Autumn for me as part of the Official Photographer Team for the Albuquerque International Balloon Fiesta. Instead of trees, leaves, etc. I'm taking photos of hot air balloons. 🤣😂
