How wonderful it is to celebrate milestones with family! We recently had some high school grads (that post is coming) and we all gathered to cheer their accomplishments. Here are some shots that I got of the first cousins:

I was so happy to be back around some of the sweetest children. The twins were newborns when I first met them - not so much anymore! Big sis is lots of fun to be around. She is extra cute and packs a lot of personality. This is a wonderful family and I’m thankful that Kathryn sent them my way!!

What a PERFECT day for a wedding - especially after all of the rain we experienced in May! Andrew and Kelly exchanged vows at the beautiful Morgan Ridge Vineyards (a place that I could easily stay forever!).
Kelly’s gorgeous bouquet was from Do a Little Floral. They did a great job with all of the floral decor.
Last-minute advice? Funny story? Hmmm….I’ll just say that these guys are hilarious and were fun to photograph!

Congratulations Andrew and Kelly!!

I had a great time hanging out with this cute couple. They were so fun to photograph - on a very rainy day, too! I can’t wait to meet their sweet baby boy.
I looooove this image! Their eyes are so intense!
Gorgeous!!!!

Babies change so fast…they really do. It has only been a few months since I photographed ‘A’ as a newborn and now he looks so different. His hair was dark when we first met, then it fell out and is now LIGHT! As expected, he’s gotten even cuter - such a lil heartbreaker! Check him out:

I love to see photos beautifully arranged in the homes of my clients. I wanted to share a storyboard that I recently had framed to hang in my youngest son’s room. I get a kick out of seeing his silly faces as art on a daily basis!
A huge shout out to Gene Gregory of Gregory Art & Framing, who helped me finish off my masterpiece.
