Renae & Tyler - August 2010 {Wedding, Arroyo Grande, CA}

It was the perfect Arroyo Grande afternoon. Sunny with a slight breeze, the perfect day to celebrate Renae and Tyler's marriage! You can just look at their pictures and tell that they are so full of love and joy. Congrats Tyler and Renae, and thank you for letting me share in your joy on Saturday! :)

Geoff - August 2010 {Class of 2011, Senior Portraits, Oceano, CA}

Geoff, my very sweet cousin, is graduating high school in this upcoming year. I can't believe that I remember when he was born and now he's graduating high school! Boy does that make me feel old. ;) And what do you know...he wants to be a photographer just like his cousin. :D

Renae & Tyler - June 2010 {Engagement Photoshoot, Pismo Beach, CA}

I had SO much fun shooting Renae and Tyler's engagement pictures on Saturday. I mean, who doesn't love a beach day where you can photograph two people in love, make them laugh, and become soaked all at the same time? ;)

I know Renae and Tyler from high school, and I'm so excited to be helping celebrate their special day in August!
I love this picture, because they make each other laugh too!

And they crack me up...
The Bride-to-be
Plus you know a couple is made for each other when they both make the same funny face. :)
The Groom-to-be



Don't worry, they are laughing at me because I was just soaked by a sneak attack wave.

Happy Mother's Day!

The subject of my photoshoot today is very near and dear to my heart...it's my Mom! My Mom is such a wonderful person, and I love her so much. I just wanted to say thanks Mom for always putting a smile on my face when I need one, a shoulder for me to cry on, for making me laugh by being your outrageous self, and for always filling my heart with such joy! Happy Mother's Day!!




This is my favorite shot of the day! Mom, you are so fierce!
