I just attended my very first workshop at The Ebell Club in Long Beach. It was called “The Wedding!” It was a fake wedding that went from the engagement all the way through the reception. We rotated through stations and had new challenges at each station. It was a lot of fun! Here is the first round of pictures I have. Thank you to all the leaders that helped with this day!

My challenge for this shot was “kissing”!!! These models are just friends but I think this is HOT!

Being funny!

I love this one!

This was the “bridals” challenge. It is a popular thing for brides in the South (and East Coast?) to have bridals done weeks before the wedding. It’s a shoot focused just on her, her dress, her beauty. I wish this was common on the West Coast!



Thank you to all our vendors for making this day happen! Please contact me if you would like any of these images. Also let me know if I missed anyone!

My dear sweet friend was married last night at the Fullerton Arboretum. She looked absolutely stunning in her gown. I just attended as a guest (she had an amazing wedding photographer! I cant wait to see the pictures) so I didnt bring my usual camera but I still got some great shots with my “pocket camera” lol…ok it didnt fit in my pocket but it was in my purse! This was such a fun wedding and it was in the making for a very long time!! Congratulations Katie and Jake! I am so happy for you two!!

I am so very lucky and thankful to Rosemary Blizzard for asking me to come and shoot a wedding with her all the way in North Carolina. I kind of suggested she allow me to come and carry her bags but she insisted I shoot with her! LOL I had so much fun shooting this wedding and cant wait to do it again! I have a million great shots that I cant wait to share. For now, here are just a few! The bride and groom were SO SWEET and a pleasure to photograph. I have lots more to come, I promise!

I had the pleasure of taking some pictures for friends of ours and their great big family! They definitely made me laugh…especially when I told them to KISS! ;) I think it is so important to capture these moments with your family and especially with grandparents! Time goes by too fast and these are memories to last a life time! I love being able to capture and freeze a moment in YOUR life. Can you believe they havent had a family portrait done in over 15 years!?

grandparents, parents, daughters, sons, sisters, brothers, aunts, uncles, husbands, wives, …friends :) Did I forget any???


Grandpa and his boys!

soon to be Mr & Mrs!

and this little guy is celebrating 18 months! I think he has his hands in his mouth in every shot! ha! Poor guy has some major teething going on!

I had to add a few more of this adorable family!

Ok. I cant even explain the cuteness of these two! We had an AMAZING engagement shoot, so amazing that we stumbled upon the nicest lady that gave us a guided tour of 8 acres of beautiful property an all her animals! It was like a photographers paradise, just pure beauty everywhere! These images are killing me with cuteness! I love every single one of them! I couldnt even decide which ones to show so here are just a few…or a lot!
I know the bride and groom are anxious to see these, so, without further ado: :)









I couldnt resist sharing more of this gorgeous couple from this weekend! Enjoy!

I couldnt resist posting a few of my favorites from today. Southern California had horrible weather this week. Rain, hail, and even a tornado! Today is the first day the sky opened up and was just beautiful! We even have snow on our local mountains! More to com of this sweet couple!
