REINVENTING MOMENTS

Collecting the moments that make us say, "Remember When..."

Hi, We're David & Gio

We are a family of two men and three furry companions who reside in San Bernardino, California. Gio, my husband, and I share an insatiable thirst for adventure, a love for indulging in delectable cuisine, and a passion for the excitement of live concerts. We are always seeking new experiences, whether discovering hidden gems in our neighborhood or venturing out to new horizons.

Since we tied the knot in December 2015, we have been fortunate to explore various destinations, including San Francisco, South Florida, Las Vegas, Hawaii, South Lake Tahoe, and the Four Corners States twice—clockwise in 2015 and counter-clockwise in 2024. We act on our passion for breaking away from our daily routine by embarking on spontaneous getaways, whether for a day or a weekend.

These cherished moments often lead to reminiscing about good times with phrases like “remember when.” In August 2021, I created this website to share our life’s journey through my camera lens to connect with fellow photography enthusiasts and exchange ideas. Join us as we share our experiences, adventures, and love for photography.

What I Enjoy

Photography

As an enthusiastic photographer, I cherish photography as an art form and pastime, capturing special moments purely for personal delight. Known as a 'picture freak,' I love freezing cherished memories in time.

Post Production

This is where the magic happens. Using Adobe Photoshop, I refine and enhance each shot to ensure the final image truly captures the mood and vibrancy of the day. It’s not just about editing; it’s about polishing those 'remember when' moments so they look exactly how they felt when we were there.

Web Design

Building a website using WordPress is an effective way to showcase work to a broader audience. The platform's user-friendly interface makes it easy to upload, manage, and categorize images, ensuring visitors can navigate the portfolio easily

Responsive Design

Responsive design is critical in modern web development, ensuring that a website delivers an optimal user experience across various devices. With the proliferation of smartphones and tablets, users expect seamless navigation. By implementing fluid grids and flexible images, we ensure websites look great on everything from smartphones to large desktop monitors
