90th Birthday Party

Last Saturday, I had the opportunity to attend a 90th Birthday party. My husband Dave, works with Allison Voors at Keller Williams Realty. She asked me to photograph this event for her family. It was so amazing to see everyone celebrate the wonderful life of such a great individual. People came from all over, including relatives from Tennessee, Las Vegas, and Southern California. These are just a few of my favorite candids from the evening.

Day after: Sara and Josh

Sara and Josh got married on Jan 20, 2007 at Point Loma Nazarene University in San Diego. They were married in the Elipse Chapel. Sara dress was designed by Maggie Soterro. A good friend of mine, Tira Young with Tira J Photography, asked if I would shoot Sara and Josh with her a year an half after their wedding. Sara, Tira and myself graduated from the College Student Affairs program at Azusa Pacific University together. I was honored and excited to do this shoot.
After some preparation, we spent the afternoon at Mt.Baldy. I had the pleasure of being Sara's hair dresser for the day. Despite a few bug bites, we thought the shoot was a great success and had a lot of fun with Sara and Josh. I felt that these portraits caught Sara and Josh in their natural element, but in an elegant way. They both enjoy adventure and the great outdoors. Their first interaction was on a hiking trip with Point Loma Nazerene University, so it was only fitting that they have some wedding photographs to reflect that.

Wedding: Corey and Tahnee

Last weekend one of my oldest friends, Corey Adomitis got married to a wonderful girl, Tahnee. I have known Corey since elementary school! I had such a great time enjoying the wedding and taking a few candid pics of them. They got married near Mission Bay in San Diego at a place called Marina Village. My husband, Dave, officiated the wedding. He was my main subject of the day, but Corey and Tahnee were fun to photograph also:) I was so proud of Dave because he really took a lot of time to prepare for this special day.

Baby Sophia

I love little ones! I am going to have one soon..November 13th to be exact. There expressions and personalities are fun to catch on film! Sophia is really starting to show her personality. This photo shoot was done in the morning which made the light awesome. She is my best friends daughter, so we spend lots of time together. These are her six month pictures. Isn't she a doll? These are a few of my favorites. They were hard to pick.
