Webb Family

So, after taking the first family shot, dad sent the kids off to play. Angel told him to gather them cause they'd get dirty. He asked why since we already took the picture. To his surprise, he was informed that it was the first of many...that we were going to spend about an hour. Well, if we had stopped then we wouldn't have all of these great pics.





















I love the Webb's. They are a wonderful family and a great example to me of family love and support. We had a great time shooting and had great food later to celebrate the hour of smiles. And yes, In n Out what part of it.

In N Out Opening

As most people in the area, this was a greatly anticipated day for our family. My brother has been emailing In n Out for YEARS trying to get them up here. He and his sons got there at about 5 am to wait. They were some of the first allowed in the building, got free food, and free shirts and hats. They were all over the news. Did you know there was an "In n Out" song? Well they know it, and sang it for the news.
We're not as die hard, but we did show up at 9:30 am for #2 w/ onions and shake. It was very exciting to be there. We were all interviewed by Fox 13 news. My sis-in-law got choked up as my brother told how he had proposed to her at In n Out 27 yrs ago. Their first son got choked up as well as he talked about "animal style". He said he's been waiting for this for 26 yrs. And, his entire life has been working up to this one day. A little obsessed, I know, BUT, it makes for great family memories. Rachel was in school so she missed this big party.

We're Waiting...

How cute ar they? This a my awesome nephew, Lance, and his cutie patootie wife, Melissa. She is now officially overdue. They are so fun and goofy together. Their little Marlee is going to be lucky to have them...wait, maybe I spoke too soon.



This is just a little tribute to "Twilight"


Heaven help this child. I not only had Lance's permission to post these pics, I had his blessing.






Look at this, if she turns just a little, you can't even tell she's pregnant.


Melissa is a ballerina. You may remember her from her ballet shoot I did. She's still got the moves even 9 months prego.



Good luck, I can't wait to shoot this little bundle.

Mathie Family

This is the Mathie family. I've known them most of my life. We lived by each other in So. Cal, went on camping trips together and even a 2 week moterhome caravan trip to Canada. I still remember my CB radio handle was Road Runner (circa mid 70's). They moved to Utah a few years before us and our families picked up where we left off. I really have a lot of fond memories of them. So, needless to say, it was a lot of fun being with them all.

These are the "E"ngemann's. They need to buy that letter for their wall.






















Thanks Mathie's, spending a couple of hours with you brought back some nice, sweet memories of my youth.

Kent, Linda and family

Jet black hair, porcelyn skin, and great smiles. That's how I'd describe the Seamons.
It's been fun watching these kids grow up. Now Ryan is married with a cute little one; and Sarah and Eric are in college. Here are some of my favorites. You'd think I put everyone on, but no, there are plenty more.




















The light was so pretty, especially the way it lit up the trees. It was a beautiful night.


Marriott Family

I love this family. Amanda and I were roommates and just hit it off. She's is one of my favorite people and therefore; her family is one of my favorites.
I love it when everything just comes together...colors, location, happy kids, personalities, and the big one...lighting. We had to postpone this shoot about 4 times cause of sicknesses or weather. I think these setbacks were on our side, cause everything came together.
















This is my great friend Amanda's family. Beautiful, huh?


It was so fun to hang out with your family. It's been too long.

Brimley Family

This is one crazy family. I really love them. They are so much fun. The park was beautiful, the light was perfect, and the company was great. One mistake...we probably should have had the leaf fight at the END of the shoot. We had to take time out to de-lice everyone.






















Is this a cute family or what?

Atkinson Family

I love it when the light is just right and tonight was one of those (minus the wind). Presley did her stuff and Sadie was a doll. You guys did great. enjoy












Wouldn't you know it, as soon as Sadie hits the car seat, out comes the smiles and giggles. Thanks for dealing with the wind, it think it was worth it.

Brandon and Jenelle Wedding

Sorry for my great neglect in posting. I have been super busy with shooting and editing. I have a few more to posts coming, so check back soon. I've posted these two new shoots to try to catch up.

What a cute couple. They were so funny and full of expression. I really enjoyed just capturing "moments", and I think they enjoyed their "moments".






















It was a pleasure:)

Ryan and Jennie

This lovely couple is not wasting anytime...they got engaged, 5 days later they got their pictures, then in a mere 4 weeks they're tying the knot. It was chilly and breezy but the love in the air kept them warm and happy. That's the great thing about young love, they don't care, they're just happy to be together.











Congrats and good luck!!

Amanda

This is my cute niece Amanda. I can't believe she is graduating. She was just a mere 7 when I married her uncle and look at her now. She is a really great gal.












Doesn't she just have a great smile, with those awesome dimples?

Avery: the Ralph Lauren model





Flashback, Flashback... to high school and Ralph Lauren catalogs. This little cutie pie belongs in those pages. With her porcelyn skin, rosie cheeks and lips, and tweed jumper. She got into it, then would break down laughing and cheesing it for the camera. Therefore, she deserves her own little post. Thanks Avery!!!

Black Family

I love the mountains, it's so beautiful at this time of year. I really enjoyed shooting this family. My goal was to get at least one picture of all three of Tiffany's girl looking at the camera at the same time...mission accomplished.

Gotta love when the mask becomes a permanent fixture.
