Kate and Michael

They just got married a couple weeks ago at the beautiful Rancho Capistrano. These guys were incredibly fun to work with at their engagement session and they didn't disappoint at their wedding. Their love and passion for each other is so beautiful and I love how much fun they had together. Gini Garner coordinated their beautiful day and did such a fabulous job!

They saw each other prior to the ceremony, which I absolutely love doing. We still create a special moment for them to soak each other up, but it gives us some more time to capture pictures. And for them to enjoy their cocktail party...









And how cute was this little guys' shoes?? he was so adorable...



And here is Kate working it... There were so many fun ones to choose from, but these were my favs












and of course we can't leave Michael out of the loop of working it...



























My wonderful assistant Ally grabbed this shot. The light was absolutely gorgeous and the hillside was blooming with yellow flowers. So I talked them into making the hike up the hill.



....and see how worth it, it was??



Kate told me their whole theme for their wedding was oreo, playing on black and white. So here are a couple details....



And these silly daddy's thought it would be fun to dip their kids in the fountain.. I LOVED it!! They were giggling so hard!






And their wonderful DJ Pete Carroll had everyone busting up laughing as he announced them in and during the first dance he plays their song and loops in comments they have made about each other in an earlier interview. It is so emotional and in their case, caused lots of laughter...










Thank you Kate and Michael for letting me capture your special day. I had an absolute blast with you and I adore your relationship!!

So the "B" family has a new addition....

Last time I photographed them she had just had her second... and then this year, we welcome Brody. Yes.. he was a little unexpected, but extremely welcomed!! His big brother and sister are absolutely adorable, so I truly had a blast capturing all of them. My favorite part of my job is to be a part of my clients' children growing up.

How adorable is his big sister? She's so attentive with him



It was so hard to get all 3 of them together, especially with little brother asleep. So we had some fun with this angle...



Loved... his curls!

Welcome to my new blog... Finally!! This has been a huge work in progress and I must thank my wonderful friend Karey for assisting me along the way.

Lots has been happening around here and eventually I'll do a recap post, but for now I wanted to announce that I have been published in The Bump Magazine! It's a new pregnancy magazine and has tons of useful information. So check it out....
