Look mom, new shoes!

A Sunny disposition

Usually I cringe at the thought of too much sun and try to do portraits later in the day, as the brightness usually attributes to lots of squinty eyes, and big face shadows. But, with beautiful Kody, the shadows were so beautiful against her flawless features, her beauty, effortless! I may have caused her permanent retinal damage making her stare straight into the sun, to get her amazing eyes twinkling, but I think once her mother sees the photos, she will know that the blindness was worth it.

Something Blue.

Isn't she lovely!! After three gorgeous girls, she is so happy that she is finally expecting a little man...Daddy is pretty pleased too. 

 The fog rolled in quick...I love when the weather works to your advantage...you know me and fog!! LUV!

I just loved all her little blue accessories...It's time to give the pink a rest.

Advertisement Inspiration...and other big words...

What better way to find unique photoshoot ideas than flipping through your favorite fashion mags! I rarely buy these magazines, but I am lucky enough to always have friends who do. I think one of my favorite things to do is sit with friends in the morning, sip tea, and flip through pages, and dream about what dress I would rock on my red carpet event, and contemplate what latest greatest mascara to purchase...oh, so lame, yet so true. :)
So, totally inspired, my friend and I started ripping out our favorite photos...perfume ads, CoverGirl ads....and an impromptu photoshoot was born!
I just love shooting Katie...she has the "it" factor...the camera loves her...and I am sure to post one millllllllion more blogs with her photos...
Here are her best from our advertisement inspired shoot.

So, I jumped!

How do you start photographing weddings? By photographing one! I finally was honored with the opportunity to jump off the cliff and shoot a wedding...and the experience was nothing short of wonderful. I know I have so much still to learn, and so much room to grow, but I think that I really captured some beautiful moments with beautiful images. I think what made my experience the best was the crowd I kept...the bride and groom were so amazing...and the family was so wonderful. Here are a few of my favorite shots from my first wedding!!

Nuff said
