Rachel & Craig's Wedding

2009-06-24T00:09:00.000-07:00

I think Jasen should bring me along to all his weddings to just take pictures of children. I cant get enough of little boy's in their little tux's and little girls in their beautiful little dresses! Things are just CUTER when their LITTLE! (Maybe it's because I am pregnant...and I'm now constantly thinking 'little') Rachel & Craig had 5 children in their wedding and I had a blast hanging out and capturing some pretty funny shots. My most favorite moment was when the ring bearers (3 of them!) were walking down the isle...the 5 year old brother pushed the 3 year old brother and Rachel found herself walking down the isle to screams instead of music! That's brothers for ya!

Rachel & Craig's wedding was absolutely beautiful despite the screams! Rachel was a gorgeous bride!! Thanks you guys for letting me share in your day and thank you Jasen Master for letting me shoot with you! Check out his blog for some more of Rachel and Craig's wedding photos.

The brother on the left, pushed the brother on the right....sooo funny! :)

Aubrey & John's Wedding

2009-05-11T21:10:00.000-07:00

I was blown away at this wedding! I thought the President himself was going to show up! That's how much of a fairytale it was! Jasen Master allowed me to shadow him for the wedding which was held at the Amendola Residents on Van Ness Avenue in Fresno. I drive down this street ALL the time to admire the gorgeous houses! Aubrey was the most beautiful bride I've ever seen. John, you are so blessed to have such a down-to-earth and stunning wife! Aubrey was so cool about doing ANYTHING for pictures. Photo's ALWAYS turn out better when 1) you have a model-esque bride and 2) she is fun and spontaneous! Aubrey and John you were so much fun to photograph! I hope you have the most amazing time in Hawaii!
Look how ecstatic she is!!!! Soooo cute.

My first wedding

2009-05-03T12:54:00.000-07:00

Her kids ran up to him minutes after the ceremony and said "we can call you Daddy now!" and he responded back "it's a privilege and an honor". Kevin is Veronica's Boaz (of the Bible.. See the book of Ruth), and the theme of their love is this: those who continue to live in holiness, trusting God to bless them, are not disappointed because in time, by His grace, God in His goodness smiles upon them. Although Veronica's life has been difficult, Kevin is her earthly redeemer who will be the source of life and joy to her as a constant reminder of God's loving provision.

Yesterday I had the opportunity to shoot with Jasen Master at Kevin and Veronica's wedding in Clovis. I had such a blast hanging out with Kevin, Veronica, and their 4 kids- watching them form their new family! Kevin is an MFT- a very sweet, gentle hearted loving father AND new husband! Thanks Kevin & Veronica for allowing me to 'help' document the beginning of their newly formed family!

AND Jasen....YOU DA MAN!
Kevin's son Matthew and Veronica's daughter Savanna....SO cute. He is such a great older brother!!
Here's my Boss Man in action!!!

Kalley Anytime

2009-04-27T21:41:00.000-07:00

She is one of the perks of marrying into the Lackey Family! Kalley's wit and laughter continues to sing through my heart and soul on a daily basis. I am so blessed to have such an amazing sister-in-law! My only wish is to have size 8 feet so I could wear ALL her ADORABLE shoes. She has more shoes than me....I know....SHOCKING!

I love you Kall!

Oooo....the zaptos. How I love thee...

Bethany Graduation

2009-04-27T21:24:00.000-07:00

There is no other girl I adore more than this one. Her sense of humor is a priceless quality. Whenever I need someone to cheer me up and make me laugh...I call Bethany. Sometimes the best medicine is a good old laugh, straight from the bottom of your belly. Who better to administer the dose, than my best friend? She can always manage to make me see the humor in situations I deem disastrous. Here's to the new CSUF graduate! Congrats! I am SO proud of you!

Ahhh...yellow shoes. Gotta luv um!

Stephanie & Isaac Anytime

2009-04-27T21:12:00.000-07:00

Stephanie and I work together at CCWF and endure many jazzy prison situations together daily. Her and her husband, Isaac, agreed to do a photo shoot with me to help me build my portfolio!

Thanks Steph for all your support and love on a DAILY basis. My days would not be the same without you!

Enjoy their cuteness....

You would NOT think Isaac is a correctional officer....more like....ummmm....model? GQ?

Shoot: Numero Uno- My Rents!

I've gotta give it to them. I asked my parents if they wouldn't mind being my 'Genny pigs' in my first shoot with David Jay's 1D Mark II camera that he let me borrow! They were such good sports. My dad was NOT feelin' it at first...but as time passed he relaxed more and enjoyed the lovey-dovey moments with my mom! So cute!

Thanks DJ for being SO generous and helping others in their business. You are such an amazing boss to Jason! I LOVE my starter camera...it is 'stuck' with me now! Mom & Dad...I love you so much! Thank you so much for the opportunity to capture your love for each other!
