What can I say, what a day!!!! You may remember this couple as the winners of my first ever blog contest earlier this year, you can check out their winning image here. We had such an amazing time with Jenn and Steven. With the occasional glitch around every corner that day (bride recovering from pneumonia, little dress malfunctions, little DJ malfunctions…) this wedding never missed a beat. The true love these two have for one another was clearly evident and we had such an amazing time with them. We got to work with the AMAZINGLY talented and just all around fantastic human being Ryan Koral of Epic Motion who has a sneak peek reel on his blog from this wedding, check it out. Thank you Jenn and Steven for allowing us to capture SO many gorgeous images, you really worked it, I hope you LOVE them as much as I do! Below several favorites from our day.

I was so looking forward to shooting Kate and Omars wedding, since having such a FUN time shooting their engagement session last year, and boy I was NOT disappointed. We had so much fun and they were up for anything. The day included, but was not limited to; hilarious groomsmen, beautiful bridesmaids with killer shoes,  shooting a few portraits with a bunch of hideously beautiful colorful prom dresses, my groom running in a millwheel like a gerbil (with NO prompting from me I might add) and quite possibly the most HILARIOUS toast I have ever heard ( or seen, it involved interpretive dance). Thank you both so much for being so great. A few of my faves from your lovely day!

Well I’ve been slow to blog and please except my apologies.  I have BIG news that will explain why life is a bit crazy at the moment (and NO I am not pregnant), so thank you for your patience.  WAY back on May 9th, we officially kicked off our season with Kevin and Charlyn.  Amazing couple, wonderful family and terrific friends.  Thank you both for a wonderful time, I enjoyed so much meeting you.  A few of my favorites below from their day!

Well wedding season is in full swing, so we have alot of fun things to share with all of you! I shot 2 FABULOUS weddings this weekend and will have blog posts about them later this week. A new custom blog is in the works, hoping to launch in late July, it will feature HUGE photos and a gorgeous new look! And since I didn’t get to posting a Kauai travel post, I did want to mention that if you are looking for an incredible travel destination or honeymoon spot, it is absolutely breathtaking! I would like to reccommend a place to stay. My husband and I rented in Hanalei on the North Shore an incredible house from the Hanalei Surfboard House. The owner, Mr. Simon Potts is a former record company executive from England and his taste for retro island is impeccable! All the comforts of home and not in a stuffy hotel room, who knows you may run into someone famous. Tell him I sent you or that you saw it mentioned on my blog and be sure to inquire about the “Love Shack”, it rocks! Stainless appliances, HUGE shower, comfy mattress, Killer flat screen, a crazy cool CD and DVD collection.

I will leave you with a shot from the interior of the “Love Shack” and one of my faves from the first wedding of the season with Kevin and Charlyn! Check back soon for more!

So I don’t often share images of my personal life and I thought “why not?” I guess I get to know alot about my clients and they don’t often get to know about me, so thought I’d share a fun day we had this weekend! I have 3 kids and my baby Julian James turned 4 this past weekend. He is the most precious boy and is OBSESSED with trains! He has been since he was 1 year old. So we decided to themeout the party this year and go all aboard. This birthday was a big deal because according to our 11 and 8 year old when you turn the age of your birthdate this is commonly referred to as your GOLDEN birthday. I had never heard of it. So we wrapped the presents in golden paper.

Then we went to ride the REAL Thomas the Tank Engine (big with the under 6 circuit) at Greenfield Village. He was speechless! He couldn’t contain the emotion!

Then we headed home to hang with friends and family, have yummy THOMAS Baskin and Robbins Mint Chocolate Chip cake and then for the biggest suprise of all, our own personal train arrived at our curbside and took us ALL on rides around the block for the afternoon. We finished the day making track designs with all the NEW stuff that Jules got for presents. Thank you to everyone who was there and helped with all the fun chaos. We love you all!

Slideshow of our day, with a little diddy that Julian recorded recently with the help of Daddy and Garageband! Click here to see and HEAR it!

I received a gorgeous invitation the other day from a client and the postage was a photo from the engagement session we shot together! I know everyone knows about it, but it is such a great idea and looks custom and personal on anything that you are sending! If you are interested let me know, I would be happy to send one of the photos to you free of charge to use as a stamp!
