Lynn & Drew Wedding...

I am honored to have photographed Lynn and Drew's special day.  I had an amazing time working with them!  Just a few favs...best to them always!

The beautiful bride...




Love this photo of Lynn and her son. Such a tender moment.


The groom and his children...



At last...










Some great candid moments...




It was a truly magical night.

New Camera!

Yesterday, I picked up my new Canon 7D, and I am so excited!!!  I have been wanting to upgrade my camera for some time now, and finally did it.

There is nothing like playing around, and seeing what the results are.


This was Ava this morning doing her homework.  Doesn't she look thrilled, lol!  I broke out my 85mm for this one.

The I switched over to my favorite, 50mm 1.4.  Thankfully, the dogs never complain about modeling for me.


It's a rough life here....


Sweet little Zoe who we are taking care of, this little baby had surgery for a broken elbow.  Asides from photography, my other passion are dogs, particularly pitbulls.  They are just the best!

Ciao for now!

Emma's Best Friend...

This Saturday was Emma's best friend, Taylor's, communion.  Of course, I had to take photos of this beautiful little girl all dolled up for her special day.  And she looked beautiful!


Her dress was just stunning, and her tiara gorgeous.  I personally love that her nails were painted a pretty aqua blue, which is totally her.  This picture happens to be one of my favorites of all time.  She just looks precious.


The sweetest thing her mom said to me, was that when Taylor looked at her photos, she thought she looked pretty.  This of course caused Mom to tear up.  Taylor doesn't often pay herself compliments.  I knew I did my job when Taylor said this.


Taylor is such a sweet little girl, and her and Emma are inseparable.  It is just darling how close they are.  And thanks to them, our family and Taylor's have become great friends.  I foresee lots of parties and barbeques with them this summer.


We were really lucky that Taylor's neighbor has such a beautiful back yard, with lots of great photo ops. I love the contrast of the tire swing with Taylor's pretty dress.  Even though she is all dolled up, she still looks like a kid just having fun.


Taylor and her little brother Mikey, who is Ava's age.  This has to be one of my most favorite sibling photos.  I am honored I got to capture this special moment in their lives.  I think Taylor's parents are in for it later, when their little beauty starts capturing the eyes of the opposite sex.  Good thing Dad is a police officer. ;)



My beautiful girls...


A rare moment between them.
