Emily and Thomas Get Married in Pismo Beach

It rained and rained leading up to their big day, but hours before the wedding the clouds finally broke and it turned out to be the most gloriously sunny day in late February. We took full advantage of this by moving the wedding party down to the beach for some amazing shots as the sun was about to set. Afterwords, this close knit group of family and friends watched Emily and Thomas take their vows in a beautiful tent ceremony. An amazing party followed...even the kids were gettin' down on the dance floor. Congratulations again to Emily and Thomas!!

Thorn Crown Cathedral in Arkansas

Remember Peter and Niqui? Their engagement session happened a few months ago and they've since relocated to Arkansas. I'm so exciting to be shooting their wedding this summer at the Thorn Crown Cathedral, a majestic glass chapel sitting on top of a hill in the Ozark Mountains near Eureka Springs, Arkansas. This amazing piece of architecture is 48 feet tall with 425 windows and over 6,000 square feet of glass. It was chosen 4th on the AIA's top designs of the 20th century. This is guaranteed to be a unique setting- I can't wait.

Raquel and the Backyard

Awhile back, I documented the adorable Princess Raquel in her natural environment- the backyard! She hammed it up for the camera during a swing session and a lesson from her mom on butterflies. I'd say, she's a natural in front of the camera. I'm looking forward to photographing the newest addition in the family, but will have to wait a few more months for the arrival!

A brand new year and a brand new website!!

Happy New Year!! My new site is finally up and running! It's designed to emphasis and showcase the photos and has super easy navigation. You can download a pricing guide, order prints online and check out all of the kind things people are saying about my work. :)
I have a really good feeling about 2010...don't you?
