Smile of the Year

I love doing senior shoots for guys because they know what they want, they let me do my job, and when I think we have enough great shots they trust me. This was so true for Jesse. BUT senior guy shoots can also be the most challenging because its hard to get them to open up and show their real smile and their personality...this was so NOT true for Jesse. I couldn't get the smile OFF of his face. But I'm not complaining! And truth be told he had my laughing the whole time too. He is such a great kid, with a great family, and a great head on his shoulders. I know he'll make his momma proud!

Wine Country Beauty

Last weekend I got to spend some time away from everything. Although I enjoy my family, my work, and all the other things that consume my time, it was nice to take a deep breath and focus on nothing but myself, my best friend, and beautiful wine country. Katia is beautiful so of course, she got to be my model all weekend. Had to share my favorite shot!

Baby Leah

Oh this sweet girl! Charity & the girls came over for a play date and my camera couldn't stay in the bag. I'm so happy with how these came out but they still don't capture her amazing beauty. I'm sure there will be more to come of this beautiful baby!

Sweet & Sexy

One of the best parts of my job is getting to know and spending time with people...especially when we have so much fun!! My engagement shoot with Richard & Keela was such a blast and these pictures really show off their perfect blend of sweet & sexy. Congrats you 2! With Richard's marriage motto (Happy wife, happy life!), I know you've got a great future ahead of you.

Never a Bore - TEASER

Last weekend I spent the day with a good friend and her family. Part of it we were in an amazing part of Vegas that rarely gets seen...then we partied in the cleanest, friendliest laundromat around. This family never ceases to amazing me with their creativity! I hope you enjoy these. There are more to come so check back soon.

Birthday Beauties - TEASER

Best friends...best birthday...best party! Such a fun shoot but I'm keeping the pictures under cover until after the reveal at the party. So this is ALL you get for now, thats why they call it a teaser!

Art, Friends, Family

A couple of my friends asked me take some shots of them while they were together in town (one of them lives in Cali). It started with something simple but the ideas kept flowing. Arts District, shades, beach cruiser and 2 beautiful friends...who could ask for more? My family decided to take the chance to spend some time with the girls so they tagged along...I stole a couple shots of them too. We had so much fun, even though it ended in Avree crashing her pretend bike! I hope you enjoy these as much as I enjoyed taking them, just some people I truly love..letting me do what I love.
