My good friends Eddie and Kim Acierto had a baby! Congrats! I made this little video of the new addition to their family!

My wife Errin and I spent the afternoon at Ke‘e Beach on Mothers Day. It was so fun and special for us, because Errin is now around 15 weeks pregnant and so although we haven’t had the baby yet, I consider he to already be a great mother! The weather was incredible and we had a lot of fun shooting pictures and swimming and playing with the fish in the crystal blue sea!

I recently had the opportunity to photograph Courtney Conlogue for a couple brief sessions. The surf was average, but her surfing was top notch. I predict that she will make the tour in the next couple years with the way she is surfing. A lot of the next generation of surfers are really good at airs and tail releases, which Courtney can do as well, but she really uses the rail more and power surfs as much as she can. She told me that one of her most favorite surfers is Pancho Sullivan and it shows. http://bobbyschutzphotography.com/Courtney2/

Have you ever though man, if I was the size of an action figure the waves would be pumping! Well yesterday my wife and friends Edwin Nakakura, Jesse and Angelina Lagana went down to the beach with our little friend Pinocchio for a little surf and sun. This is an idea that I am sure a million people have already thought about, heck there is even a remote control surfer that you can buy. But Pinocchio was surfing since way back in the day. Ok just kidding, but really though it was so fun to see the look on the kids faces out there and I am sure my face was funny too. This is the first installment of our custom little surfer series that we hope you will like. Thanks for checking out our blog and God bless. To see the shoot check out this web gallery here.

Well, my wife and I have a baby on the way, so we are in the process of looking for work in Southwest Florida were my family lives. If you know of anyone looking to hire a photographer in the state then please let me know! Nothing is set in stone yet but we will see shortly.

• We don’t have any exact dates yet.
• Baby is due in November so we hope to move this summer.

Wedding Photos Kauai

As you are naturally wondering, what will happen to Wedding Photos Kauai? I will still be doing weddings, just not in Hawaii unless they are a paid travel gig as you can understand. I will probably be directing any site traffic I get towards Diane Reynolds. She is an amazing wedding photographer and friend. I know that she provides a great service and is a pleasure to work with.

Cross-Country Drive

We are hoping to fly to California and then drive across the country and photograph neat stuff all along the way for my stock website, http://www.istockphoto.com/schutzphoto. So in short changes are always inevitable in life, we just have to keep moving forward with each new challenge and keep our eyes fixed on the prize at the end! Aloha for now and I will be trying to post more on the site to keep anyone that’s interested updated.
