Lauren's Bridal Shower

First comes love then comes marriage... wait a minute... somewhere in between that there are a ton of fancy and fun events with friends and family...Here are some shots from a Bridal Shower for Lauren (of Lauren and Bucky seen below). I was given someones point and shoot for most of the time and grabbed my own camera to take a few pictures at the event.

*A clever idea of how to use engagement pictures

Jack & Lacey Tilden Park

Shooting at a new location is always an adventure. Shooting a wedding is an adventure. Jack an Lacey have allowed me to join them in both. Here are some images from an engagement shoot we did at Tilden Park. We raced the fog, climbed trees, hopped fences and dodged poison oak. They were such a fun couple to work with!

Black and White Romance

Black & White shots from Anna and Nick before their Junior Prom

Nick and Anna

I remember getting ready for my prom in 10 minutes.... because getting my hair done took 2.5 hours!! Doing this prom shoot brought me back. Anna looked like a fairytale princess. What an amazing dress!! Photography wise I learned it is very challenging to get the best shots when there are 30+ people taking pictures as well as 30+ subjects. Thanks go out to Anna and Nick for letting me practice. You are both stunning.

Coe Coe and Uncle Dan

Baby Cohen- 6 months

I was lucky enough to meet this little fellow and re-meet his parents in a cute little town on the California Oregon border. Babies make such great subject matter because, well, they are cute. Coe Coe is extra cute so it makes it even more fun to take his picture and play.




The First Taste of Banana... looks so yummy... the first taste of lemon later that night....not so good



Hootie Hoo!!... Owl Eyes

Lauren & Bucky

My lovely friend, since I was in 1st grade, is getting engaged to the love of her live and I had the honor of taking their engagement photos. It was a cold evening when we shot so I warmed up the images a bit.
