Brayden Two Years Old

I was so excited to do Brayden's 2 yr old pics. I know that boys at this age dont like having their picture made but I was hoping he would still enjoy smiling and looking at the camera like he did when I saw him last. Well he didnt want to have anything to do with me or my camera. I tried EVERYTHING I could to get a look, a glandce, a tongue sticking out, ANYTHING haha and he didnt want to give it to me. Well he must've known what he was doing because I like the pictures so much better that he is playing and doing what 2 yr old boys do. He is so cute, he couldn't take a bad picture even when he was trying. ;-) Thanks Kel for letting me shoot this cutie of yours! 

here is little Bryce, he is getting so big! 

Beautiful Belly, Beautiful Family

I have known Suzie since I was in the 4th grade. She was my best friend and my sidekick for much of my youth until I moved away to Bakersfield when I was 15yrs old. We have recently gotten back in touch and I am ever thankful for that. I love this woman and I love seeing her as the amazing woman, wife, and mother she has become. I am also so thrilled to have been able to see her grow this new little life inside her. We are all eager to meet Miles on his grand appearence tomorrow. Suzie, thanks for allowing me to capture your beautiful family, it is truly a gift to have you back in my life again. Love you girl!!! Now enjoy these pics I took. We had a good time.

i heart faces ABOVE your HEAD

This week on one of my favorite websites http://www.iheartfaces.com/ the weekly challenge is "above your head" I thought this was perfect because my son LOVES to be above your head. I knew I had tons of choices I could go through to choose for this entry. Then yesterday we were outside playing like usual, I turn around to see him on daddy's shoulders having such fun grabbing for his glasses and his hair, I had to run inside for the camera. I also love how my son runs around naked in nothing but shoes all summer long. so here is my entry this week, now go look at all the other entries too. Such a talented site. 

Tali and Jay

I was with Tali the night her and Jay met. I have been able to watch their love blossom from the very start. They are dear friends to me and I was so pleased and honored to take their engagement pictures. You can see the love spilling out in every pic, that made it so hard to narrow down my faves. I had SOO many faves I may have to do two blogs on all the pics. Enjoy the pics and please allow love to wash over you when you look. :-)

Thanks for looking!!

River Dylan

Now that River can walk and run that is all he wants to do. He wants to play outside all day and run around freely as he pleases. SO yesterday before the sun went down we went down to see some of the animals on our property. WHile we were exploring, taking pics and checking out the Emus, the Donkeys came up to say hello. THen on our way back up the driveway, we visited with Mojito the Llama. River got to pet the Donkey and the Llama, he was so excited. We will do visiting all the animals often now, that is great. Enjoy the pics and thanks for looking.
