Madison and Logan!

Two of my favorite kids! ...and one of my great friends since college (their mom). I enjoyed a visit with Casey, Nicole, Madison and Logan a couple weekends ago and can't believe how fast kids grow up! Madison is always on the go it seems, and loves to put on a show, what a cutie! And Logan didnt like the camera but we managed to sneak a couple photos of his adorable little smile somehow. We were doing christmas photos of the kids so hoping for some snow for the photoshoot, but with no such luck we did some festive photos inside. Just in time for Christmas! :)









I was really glad I was able to sneak this visit and photo shoot in! September to November is our busiest time at the photo lab and it seems impossible to find time for the camera. Now that we're slowing down I should hopefully be able to keep the blog updated more frequently!

I have not done a lot of child photography, but I sure do enjoy it! There's still time, if you're looking for some festive photos for Christmas cards, I would love the opportunity to expand my portfolio, which means great prices for you! ;)

And now that I am slowly starting to get some of my evenings and weekends back, I am booking photo shoots again!! Family, Child, Sports, Animal, Weddings and Engagements!

Happy Holidays!

Jenna and Devon * Married

I love weddings! Sept 10th was a beautiful day, the wedding held in the beautifully landscaped backyard of a home in Chatsworth, and with such a happy couple, who could ask for a more perfect day!
Ever since Jenna first asked me about doing her wedding and said that I had done her cousin Caitlin's wedding the summer before I knew it was going to be a good day! Caitlin and DJ just celebrated their 2nd Anniversary! It certainly does not seem that long ago that I was capturing their wedding day, where does the time go?!
I have posted here, a few of my favorites of the day and also uploaded a simple windows slideshow I have put together to sum up their day in photos :) Unfortunately slideshow photos are very pixelated when viewing the video in full screen... best to view in small screen. Needless to say I will be taking a better look into making flash slideshows asap!
Thank you Jenna, Devon and everyone else for a great day and being fantastic to work with! And I also thank Caitlin and DJ for recommending Melissa Photography! I hope to have the chance to work with you all again soon!


Congratulations Jenna and Devon!


Jenna and Devon shoes!
And Jenna's flowers were feathers,
made for some very cool bouquets!

Hello Again! Its been a long long time! This was exactly my fear in starting a blog, not keeping up with it... Anyways, I've been keeping busy at the school photo lab I work at over the summer, and school is starting in just a few short weeks so the crazy busy will be kicking in :) I love when its busy.

My little sisters are the usually the only ones that appreciate when I bring my camera home on weekends, everyone else hates having there picture taken. A few weeks ago my youngest sister had a friend over and wanted to do a 'country photoshoot'. My dad has a very cool old truck (known as "the beast") that the girls were excited to use as prop for a few photos. Here are some of the results from the shoot.
