Justin & Amanda

I had such a great day with these two!  Justin and Amanda were both so great to work with, and such a joy to get to know better.  We were blessed with Perfect weather and beautiful lighting for their engagement session. Enjoy this handful of my favorites (OK it’s more than just a “handful,”  but we just had so much to choose from) 

Michael Reid Band

I few weeks ago, I had the opportunity to do my first “band shoot.”  The boys from the “Michael Reid Band” were great and fun to work with.  They are currently the lead band  worship at LA Tech’s BCM’s weekly worship service and have plans to be worship leaders this summer at Centri-Kid camps.  Thanks, guys, for being such sports and letting me experiment a bit.  Here a few of my favorites.

Carter James

Here’s the post I promised to stay tuned for in my last post…..Jennifer and Kyle’s baby boy!  Enjoy this handful of my favorites.  And, then there were THREE…….

The Happy Parents!

Beautiful family.

Safe in Daddy’s Hands…..

Future “Bulldog”…….Still trying to figure that guy out, apparently. 

Jennifer’s Belly…..

Jennifer is a great friend of mine, and has blessed me so much this past year with caring for my Makayla while I have had photo shoots.  Well, I’ve now lost my excellent caregiver, but gained another friend who is a mom! She is  great with kids, incredibly gracious and loving.  Carter is so blessed to have she and Kyle as parents.  They are an amazing couple, whom I feel privileged to call my friends.

We took these maternity pictures on a Friday, and Jennifer delivered her precious baby Carter the following Tuesday!  Doesn’t she look great for being just days away from delivery? Stay tuned for Baby Carter’s two week pictures!

Arlyn Boyet

Baby Arlyn was 11 weeks old for this shoot, and just as cute as can be!  Libby and Keith invited me into their home to photograph this precious baby girl, and I loved it!  She is a great, happy baby…….just keep her belly full!    Here are a few of my favorites from our  afternoon together.

Safe in Daddy’s hands

Beautiful Evie

Babies, babies, babies!  All of my friends are having beautiful little ones, and I am honored to get to capture some of these precious children.  I have been friends with Rachel since junior high, and have walked a lot of roads with her alongside me.  Now, we are both moms of precious little girls!  She asked for me to photograph her little one when I was home at Christmas, and of course I jumped at the opportunity.  Sorry that I am just now posting these, Rachel.  I know I will need to take some more the next time I’m home, as I know she has changed so much already!

Well, here’s our beautiful Evangeline Grace……..

Sally & Nick

Sally and Nick are two of the most kind hearted people, and a truly sweet couple.  It was a joy for Brandon and I to photograph their “christmas” wedding.   All of the lights and colors were faboulous.  The ambiance combined with the beauty (inside and out) of this couple made for an incredible wedding to work.  Thanks guys for inviting us to document your day!  I loved every minute of it.
