I couldn't help it. I'm out in my studio, working away and I come across these three images from 2010. Un-shared. Not blogged. In fact I came across a whole world of images not shared. I am trying to not be crazy and spend every waking second blogging everything I haven't. I'm not going to, but I have vowed that whenever possible, I'll go back a bit and share even just a few. There is not one session that I don't want to share, always. It's just... time. You know. Time. Here is fabulously gorgeous Pamela and her handsome husband Mike.
Sara and Chris
After an awesome weekend full of family beach moments, spring cleaning, spontaneous kitchen painting and all around good times, I feel the need to bring you an awesome little engagement session from a few weeks ago. A moment of sunshine through the clouds, some quirky locations and an amazing couple... voila... I give you the gorgeous Sara and Chris.
Karla and Doug
It was snowy-ish. Cold, and I had just finished shooting 100 kids with bunnies. Something told me that shooting anyways would pay off. I love that it was almost cancelled. Love the colors, the tones, the feelings. Love everything about it, even the chilly wind blowing Karlas hair around perfectly. Not all photoshoots are best in the sun. It always amazes me how each and every outdoor session takes on a life of its own. Plan away, but it will always be exactly as it's supposed to be. But, if you are open to anything... you will often end up with your own brand of awesome. Love it!!!
I loved our session and can't wait to photograph their wedding this summer! As if Karla won't be a stunning bride. Awesome.
Jacquie and Pat
I just need to say something... My 2011 WEDDINGS ROCK!!!
I loved her from the first email. Sweet, charismatic and outgoing. Awesome. Jacquie and Pat are warm, fun, engaging and they just make you want to be around them, not to mention both totally gorgeous. You two make my job so easy! Being together twelve years has created an amazingly effortless connection between the two of them. You take one look at them and instantly think....of course they are together. They should be together. They are so natural, so comfortable. A beautiful thing. Now you love them too, don't you. I can't wait to photograph their Pacific Shores wedding this summer. Admit it, you can't wait either.
A Real Engagement Session
The day before the session Jeff nonchalantly says something like "Oh, and I'm going to propose during our maternity session, do you think that's ok?" HUH? Do I think that's ok? NO, I think thats incredible. He said "we might need to plan it, she might cry". I said "She might cry? She's pregnant. For sure she is going to cry!!" A beautiful moment, at an amazing and exciting time in life. I am honored to have been chosen to capture it all. Jeff and Sydney, may the universe shower you and your baby, with nothing but sweetness.
