Howdy from The OC - 04-10-2009, 10:03 AM


Hey CA peeps!

My name is Roxanne Benton, and my husband and I own Pixel2Canvas - canvas and fine art printing here in Mission Viejo.

He's a shooter - Nikon man - was the sports photog for UGA in college (GO DAWGS!) I'm a commercial graphic artist - so we married our two talents and started P2C a few years ago.

We have 6 year old boy/girl twins - so between taking care of them, running P2C and my household, life is pretty crazy for me!

I'm learning to shoot too - more just for enjoyment than anything else - and since I've been hanging around photogs for the last few years, my "eye" has changed - even with my P&S I see the world differently!

I'm looking forward to making new friends here on this CA board - if I can help, I'm always happy to break with any knowledge I may have for ya...

(oh - and I was born on April Fool's day - so there's usually a lot of smart @$$ humor in my posts...)

All the best,
Roxanne

Thanks Bailey! We're at the Fun Zone in Newport/Balboa. The Pavilion building is way in the background, with the flag on top. Now we need a shoot at Stearns Wharf!

It was a CRAZY windy & cold day - that's why we could sit in the street and there were no cars to bother us! Also, we had to put our choc lab, Samson, down in January - that's why we wanted him in our Christmas pics.

This entire shoot was for family/Christmas pics. There's more on my FB page - find me at Roxanne Benton or the Pixel2Canvas group page.

Happy Monday!

:p Roxanne
