Huntington Beach

I'm down here in Huntington staying at my friends Nick and Becky's condo. Becky and I are shooting a wedding this afternoon and it should be pretty great! Sadly, it is Becky's oldest daughter's birthday today. She is turning three. Yesterday the celebrated with her and right now they are out on a walk enjoying each other.

I'm here listening to Pastor Britt Merrick speak on eleven verses in Hebrews. Pretty powerful stuff I tell ya.

Anyhow, it's about that time to get cleaned up! I'm planning on posting some pictures of the day sometime this week.

Oh, and hey, if it's your birthday week then I hope it's wonderful! It's my birthday week as well and I pray it's full of laughter not only for me, but for you too.

Until later my friends,

Harder Three

So my friend Jake and Renee along with their daughter Gracie will be moving to Guatemala in just under two weeks! They are following the Lord's calling in their life and will be planting a church down there. Their son, Josiah, will come along in August! What an amazing and exciting adventure.

I was so pleased that they asked me to take their family picture while they were still in town. Gracie just turned two in April and she is quite a character. She's a tiny yet tall little thing. It was a joy to shoot them and spend some time with them this morning.

Enjoy the slideshow and I hope to bring you more of my work and fill you in on the goings on in my life very soon!

Navarro Wedding

JC and Natalie... what a blessing to have met them. Well, Natalie and I go back a few years. I was her Lead Counselor at Hume Lake Christian Camps back in 2003. We have kept in semi-contact since that week she attended camp. Thankfully she asked me to shoot her wedding! Meeting JC and watching them interact with each other, their bridal party, and their guests was incredible. They both are so giving and it is very clear they each have a servants heart.

Needless to say, their wedding was amazing. It was fun, full of laughter and love, and JC and Natalie had such a great time... probably because they were so relaxed and truly enjoyed themselves.

Anyhow, enjoy the slideshow and I hope to bring you many more stories soon.

Haywood Family

The Haywoods... life long friends. Okay, not life long but I've known them since 1993 and I'll know them the rest of my life. So close enough. They are wonderful and great to have around. Those kids are pretty cute as well! Boy what a handful. :)

Dias Family

Okay so I really love these photos. Not only because I think they turned out so good but also because this is my cousin, her husband, and they're son (my second cousin). I love family... there's no doubt about that.

Tia Lucy y Familia

These four were so wonderful! What joy fills that family. I loved spending time shooting them. Their laughter and humor is infectious.

Spring Special

My Spring Special took place this past weekend in Reedley and I had a great turnout. Here is one of my sessions with this adorable 2 and a 1/2 year old. He was a challenge but a ton of fun. Enjoy.

Hansen Wedding

Last Summer my dear friend Peter got married in Chicago, IL to this amazing woman, Linzi. This couple are certainly meant to be. They are simply amazing, laughing constantly, and smart as a whip! I wish I could relive their wedding weekend over and over again. The whole time was fun filled and their wedding party certainly did not lack any character!

My dear friends, I hope you're doing well.
