Cute as a button: Jimenez Family

Tuesday, March 2nd, 2010

Last week I was able to take photos of this lovely family at a park in Palmdale, California. The mom, Abby is the owner of Nadia Cakes in Palmdale and I was absolutely delighted when she asked me to take their family photos. We had a great time and bribed the girls by telling them they could play on the playground after we were finished taking pictures. Naomi and Nadia thought that it was a great bribe but Maya wasn’t so sure. Thank you guys for the great time! You are a beautiful family!

Nadia is a pro at the serious look. She was taking a break here and she looked so cute.

Maya was having a rough day but at least she has sisters that love her!!

Lancaster, CA Senior Pictures: Jenny

Saturday, February 6th, 2010

Last weekend I headed out in the desert with Jenny and her friend Shayne to shoot Jenny’s senior pictures. We kinda got lost trying to find the spot we were looking for but no worries we finally found the spot. We’re pretty sure we saw someone famous shooting their next big movie at one of the movie sets in Lake LA on our little detour so it was all worth it. One of the reasons I love Jenny is because she’s just a fun person to be around! She’s always in good spirits and ready to laugh at or crack the next joke. Congrats on being a Senior this year Jenny! God’s got a great future in store for you and I can’t wait to see it unfold.

Engagement at Ventura Beach Part 2

Friday, January 29th, 2010

Julee and Travis are the other couple that I took down to the Ventura Beach Pier for a quick Anytime Session. Julee and Travis have dated for several years and now have plans to tie the knot! I couldn’t be happier for them! Travis likes to tease and Julee likes to laugh so they are perfect for each other. I had a great time with them and really love the fact that they, along with Tommy and Brittany treated Eric and I to Chick-fil-a after the session. Definitely made our tummies happy. Happy for you guys, congrats!!

Antelope Valley Bridal Show

Monday, January 11th, 2010

Saturday Eric and I loaded up and went to the Antelope Valley Fairgrounds to set up my booth for the Antelope Valley Bridal Show. I wasn’t sure how I would like but I decided to give it a try and I’m certainly glad I did. Despite the long hours of preparation and skipping a few meals in the rush of things I had a great experience and really enjoyed meeting everyone who stopped by my booth. As a new business in the AV it was nice to meet other vendors from the area and I look forward to keeping in touch with them in the months ahead. Below are a few photos from our fun day!

Although all I had to eat that day was half of my peanut butter mood from Jamba Juice I sure am enjoying the leftover Ghirardelli Cholates :)

My husband (Eric Hayes) and hard working graphic designer made my business cards and accordion fold brochures which I loved! Thanks hun!

The contents on the rest of this page are going to make you drool! Just across the way from us was a booth with some absolutely stunning cakes! I thought that I recognized one of the ladies at the booth and kept telling my husband “I think I know that lady at the awesome cake booth.” I finally got the guts up to go over and say hi and it turns out that I went to a baby shower at her home a few years ago. Her shop is called Nadia Cakes and she’s simply amazing at what she does. Here’s a little article on Nadia Cakes in the Antelope Valley News http://bit.ly/782U8G.

My favorite one!

Lancaster California Wedding: Kayla & Jonathan

Friday, January 1st, 2010

Kayla and Jonathan were married on November 20, 2009 at Lancaster Baptist Church in Lancaster, CA. They met as teenagers and absolutely adore one another. Their wedding was absolutely beautiful and they both looked amazing. One of my favorite parts of shooting a wedding is the time in the ready room with the bridesmaids and the bride. Excitement is bubbling over, girls are rushing to get all spiffed up and the Bride is the center of attention. As the photographer I feel lucky to be able to stand in the background getting shots of the little moments between the girls and the stunning details during this “ready” time. It’s such a fun and exciting time just before all the action begins. What a joy it was be a part in their day and I wish them all the best in years to come.

Antelope Valley Wedding Photography: Jon & Lucee

Sunday, November 15th, 2009

I am sure that Jon and Lucee never imagined that they would have to go all the way to Japan to meet one another but that is exactly how it happened. Lucee met Jon while on vacation in Okinawa, Japan! Jon was stationed in Okinawa and while he was there he often volunteered at the church where Lucee’s Brother-in-law pastored. Jon and Lucee met while helping out with church camp. They officially began dating in August of 2008 and kept in close touch after Lucee went back home to California. Jon was soon sent to Camp Pendleton in San Diego, California and on May 30th he proposed to Lucee after a lovely meal at the Odyssey in Granada Hills, California.

Congrats Lucee and Jon!

Gotta love the smile on the girl to the left!

The flower girls and ring bearer are siblings. Big brother was kind enough to hold his sisters’ hands although he was a little reluctant at first. :) Typical brother.

Baby Camden Mordh – Lancaster, California

Friday, November 6th, 2009

Took some pictures of this little guy when he was still in his Moma’s belly back in September and now here he is at 8 days old. Such a precious little baby boy! I brought the family a meal tonight and got to snap a few shots while I was at it. :)

Here he is with his Auntie Kris!

I hear he likes to cross his legs. Baby feet are so cute!
