Stella

Seriously, this might be one of my favorite photoshoots thus far in my career. Maybe I just have a case of "girl envy." But which ever, I'm pretty sure she is adorable. I think you'll agree.

Photo Challange: MOTHERHOOD

This young, beautiful mother was left last year to face the challenges of motherhood all alone when her husband passed away unexpectedly from health complications.

When I think of motherhood, I think of my dear friend and her amazing strengh. I admire her whole heartedly and look forward to the new beginnings that are on the horizon for her and her son.

In Due Tide...

Look who's turning ONE

I am super excited about my newest investment for photography. I purchased a backdrop stand and a white backdrop to go with. As much as I love to work with natural light outdoors, the weather is not always cooperative causing us to have to look at other options for pictures. I found that my garage is great natural light source. I started out using a white sheet and an ironing board as a stand... but am proud to announce that I have formally upgraded!!

And I had the honor of trying out my new stuff with this sweet little guy who is turning ONE...

Best Face in February

This weeks photo challange on I Heart Faces blog is a People Choice Challenge for the Best Face in February.

Of the few pictures that I did take during the month of February, this is MY favorite....

Bundle of Goodness

As I add baby pictures to my portfolio, it helps when I have models as beautiful as this little bundle of goodness to take pictures of.

Black and red outfit... Zootie B Little Just in case you were wondering.

A Second Chance at LOVE...

The story of these two is a fairy tale of sorts. She raised two beautiful children as a single mom and then by chance, and a kiss in a bar, met a very amazing man that had a dream of starting a family with her. With the odds against them, she conceived after a having her tubes untied and these two beautiful friends of mine are to be wed this June.

Wishing them all the happiness in the world.

And one more makes...THREE

I have this friend. She has been my unconditional best since high school. She recently added a little bundle to her already wonderful family. I didn't think this family could get any more beautiful... But it did.

New Year... A New Post

Over the New Year's Weekend, I had the awesome opportunity to meet and photograph this amazing family. They had me laughing the entire time.

Phoggy Photoshoot

I was a wee bit nervous about the fog this morning. I could barely see the traffic lights as I was driving to meet this new client of mine.

But something about the fog and this little boy's Aunt Amanda made for some pretty darn cute pictures.

Santa Baby...

I have been so busy with photoshoots and trying to get photos edited and out to clients that I have neglected my blogs.... both my personal and photography blog.

With Christmas quickly approaching, I thought I'd share a "LITTLE" something that I was working on today to get you into the Christmas spirit.

Moving along...

I am moving right along with this whole photography busines. So far, I am having fun doing something that I truely enjoy and hopefully taking some pictures along the way that that family really love.

Here are some from today...

Tri to Pictures...

I was fortunate to meet the mommy of this darling family during the run portion of the Shaver Lake Triathlon. These little girls are just 13 months apart and were as sweet as ever.
