Melodie + Jayson: The Engagement
Wednesday, August 4th, 2010
Melodie and Jayson’s engagement session is perhaps my favorite engagement session so far. We stayed local and went to Palmdale, California and found a nice area with some great light and hallways with arches.
I Had a great time getting to know Melodie and Jayson during their session. Since I’ve only spent time around Melodie while she was coaching a volleyball team if was funny at first seeing her be all giddy with Jayson. They are such a cute couple!
So happy for you two!

Mitch + Melinda: The Wedding
Wednesday, June 9th, 2010
Eric and I headed to the coast on a Saturday morning to shoot Mitch and Melinda’s wedding in Ventura, California. We enjoyed the drive and were excited to start shooting such a sweet couple. We met Mitch and Melinda through Mitch’s dad who is a photographer here in Lancaster. I knew when I met them that their wedding day would be relaxed and beautiful and it was just that. We and enjoyed the day and watching these two become one was beautiful! When I gave them their wedding package today they gave me a hug!! Awesome clients and beautiful people inside and out!
Melinda and her bridesmaids got ready at the Embassy Suites Mandalay Beach Hotel and Resort which is where we took most the the portraits as well. The grounds were gorgeous! Thank you Mitch and Melinda for letting us document this amazing time in your lives!

Rocks were worth the climb. Seniors 2010
Friday, May 14th, 2010
Just a short sneak peek from a senior session from last weekend.
Climbed up in the rocks of the high desert for these boys! A little scared I was going to get a snake bite. Glad I didn’t.

Gibbs Family: Anytime Session
Friday, April 16th, 2010
To say the least I absolutely love this family! I met Janelle while we were in college and we’ve been best buds ever since. We were both from opposite ends of the great state of Oregon and to make a long story short we ended up finding out that her dad and my uncle knew one another quite well. Janelle went to school with my cousins and Janelle’s dad had worked with my uncle on construction projects. What a small world! Jonathan, Janelle and their son Josiah now live in Florida and while they were out visiting last week we got together for a little family shoot at the park. Thanks for the fun time Gibbs Family!! Love you guys!

My favorite 
We gave Josiah blueberries to keep him happy for the second half of the session so I had to get pictures with his mouth closed because it was fill with blueness.
Blueberries all gone now. I was holding his favorite book full of trucks and tractors to get a good smile. He loves tractors!
Dada threw him up in the air a few times but Josiah wasn’t too sure about going too high.

Anytime Session: Remi is 1 Year Old!
Wednesday, March 24th, 2010
I met first met Remi and her parents last week when I went to their home to take pictures of Remi for her first birthday. What a cutie pie and such a sweet family! Like most girls who love chocolate, Remi had no problem chowing down on her chocolate cupcake from Nadia Cakes. One of Remi’s favorite characters is Chica from the Sprout PBS channel and it was so cute to watch her hug and love on her custom made stuffed toy of Chica made by Viola Studio on Etsy.com. Happy Birthday to Remi!

Now that’s what I call a good first birthday cake!! Remi’s cake was custom made by Nadia Cakes with all her favorite characters.
Look at that fur on Elmo. Amazing!!
Remi’s bedroom was absolutely darling!

Joy & Corey: Engaged
Friday, March 19th, 2010
Had a great time with Joy and Corey while shooting their engagement pictures at the park. Corey is in the Army and took a short leave to come see Joy here in Lancaster and get their engagement pictures done. The lovely 100 mph freezing winds seemed to just make their session a little bit more fun and forced us to get creative with trying to keep Joy’s hair down and Corey’s fingers from going numb. Congrats Joy and Corey, it was great getting to know you two!

Happy Springtime – Wedding Photographer, Los Angeles CA
Sunday, March 14th, 2010
What a lovely day it is outside today! I’m loving that it is still light outside and for some reason it’s getting me excited about shooting some fabulous weddings this summer. Springtime is one of my favorite times of the year and I can’t wait to start sprucing up our yard with some color.
Earlier today my husband laid on the couch to take a nap while I labored over making him a PB&J. I decided to join him instead of making lunch and this is what he said: “Get off the couch, there is no room and I was here first.” As soon as that came out of his mouth we both busted up laughing because what he just said sounded like it came from a 2 year old. So a few times today I randomly said “I was here first” to make him laugh. I am so thankful to God for the little things in life and wanted to share just a few of my favorite little things with you on this lovely spring day (despite missing a precious hour of sleep last night). Who knows maybe this will turn into a series of posts. Happy Sunday!!

Tulips are my favorite flower ever!! So elegant and simple! If I could I would fill my house with them year round.
I like old fashioned looking jars for some reason. I think my mom passed this love on to me.
This little favorite thing means the most to me. When I was a little girl my Grandmother would keep one just like this on her wood stove and I loved to play with it. We spotted this one at a Cracker Barrel some time ago and as soon as I saw it I have to have it. At that time Eric and I were dating and he bought it for me.
I would cook little pieces of hot dogs in the frying pan. What a good little cook I was. Let me tell you, my hot dog pieces were to die for.
