Fireworks....


Just wanted to post these pics of the fireworks from 4th July, I know its a bit belated but they were so awesome. Our little town does give a good show, and we could tell the word is out, since there were TONS more people here this year than last year!! But we were lucky with parking even though we showed up 10 minutes before showtime, and we weren't dissappointed, it was a fabulous show. We got a clear front row view so much so that the kids were afraid the fireworks were going to land on them!



The grande finale lit up the entire sky and was followed by a lot of appreciative hooting and hollering! Don't tell anyone else, but you should come watch the show next year! LOL!!

Simply Gorgeous....

What can I say? This family of three is just adorable...mom with perfect skin and brother with his violin! LOVE the violin... wish I had musical talent, but I have zilch, can't sing or play and instrument to save my life!! Again, thank you for your patience and I really hope you LOVE your portraits.





My oh my... too young to look so good.




Aaah... siblings. don't they look picture perfect?? Hehe...

Taking a breather... from the processing machine that I've been. I am taking a four day mini-vacation with my gals and I intend not to touch the computer... since where I am going doesn't have one, and I'm not bringing one.. I think I can actually do that! LOL!

When I get back I still have a TON more shoots to share and I am SUPER excited to share a sneak peeks from a recent WEDDING... of these two gorgeous people.

Finally..... Adorable Miss Lilly!

Thank you for your patience... your gallery is almost available for viewing.. here are some sneak previews of sweet Lilly. She is darling... what a laugh!






Already she is packed with personality, look at the way she threads her leg into the chair and raises her arm! So funny, and her leg resting on the arm of the chair... kills me! LOL!



Love me a feet shot! I could almost eat 'em! Aaaahhhhhhh...


Thanks so much for stopping by and viewing pics... so I am burning through my proofing gallery... dare I say I am ALMOST caught up?????

July Issue of Sacramento Parents Magazine!

How much fun do you think we had on this photoshoot?? TONS! This little guy was so super sweet... and I was told his secret smile code was "chocolate mini-wheats"... worked like a charm. Doesn't his smile make your heart just melt?


Proof we had a blast at this shoot! Hehehe... these are my all-time favorite!



Thank you High-Hand nursery in Loomis for creating the most perfect place on earth for photographs. I start jumping for joy when I hear I get to shoot there!! I'm really excited to be shooting a wedding there later this year!! YAY!

Happy 4th JULY 2009


Alannah and her Girls Scouts Troop participated in the Local 4th July parade this morning... the theme was Happy Birthday America.. so the troop's float was a HUGE birthday cake, and all the girls were candles! So adorable... we totally got festive and the girls looked SUPER cute!! Hope you're all having a very festive day in celebrating freedom and independence, and being thankful to live in country that allows people to believe what they want and to be able to work hard and achieve their dreams.


TEAM USA! LOL!



There's nothing in the world like friends...

And... avila and I wait paitently for the Troop's float.. lots of horses and fun things to see... and TONS of candy thrown at us!


Avila and her loot! And yes... that's her broadway costume.. any chance she gets to wear she is happy to prance around! You'll probably see it again at halloween! LOL!

And here is the beautiful float!



Can't wait to watch the fireworks tonight!!!

Family time.... with lots of laughing...

Thanks for your patience... here are your long overdue blog post, this is probably the first time I sent out a gallery before the sneak previews... thanks for an awesome shoot, and for being so accommodating.



Oh this little spunky gal did exactly the opposite of what we asked her to... but look how cute she is... how could you be mad? Hahaha...

2 year olds are so fast... gotta catch them on the run!



So sweet... love my a mommy-daughter shot!

Well... mommy son shots are cute too...

Growing and Growing.... sniff... sniff..

Can you believe it? My little baby is just growing like a weed. We recently picked up this dress that she loved from The Silverspoon and do we need an excuse for a mini-shoot? Ummm... no...hahaha... We had so much fun! Look how big she is now!




I just love hanging out with her, she's so funny and smart and kind. We love watching chick flicks... recently we watched Confessions of a shopoholic, Bride Wars, and New in Town, she is such great companion, and we love to talk about the movies afterwards and laugh at all the funny bits all over again. Often we make references to the movies when we're out and about, its too funny... Omigosh, how did I ever get so lucky? I'm really enjoying my preteen years. I told her she better not turn into a crazy teenager!



Well anyways...Just thought I'd throw some of these in the midst of blitz proofing whirlwind... and I'm only half-way through... so come back soon for more eye-candy!
