I felt like I should give some recognition to Patrick Roddie of Webbery.com, an amazing photographer who has been shooting Tesla since she was just a bump in Mie's belly. His photos are fantastic, and he's been doing similar work for many other Bay Area families. This is in addition to his wonderful shots from Burning Man (including HIPS book, a great project). If you're looking for professional quality photos of your children, I don't think you could do better than look him up.
