I have had the most fun with this couple and their awesome little man today. Nothing but a morning filled with laughter, jokes, and the obvious love between them.

Nothing like a mountain sunset

I am always looking for new places to do photo shoots, and sometimes I run across some beautiful ones. This is a view about 3 minutes from my house I stumbled on the other day!

This is Ivana, we used to volunteer together at the YWCA childcare. A time when neither of us ever imagined we would be young parents. In these pictures she hadn't put on any nice clothes, hadn't done her hair up and wasn't even wearing makeup. There is so much natural beauty in the simplicity of just being a mom.

A little piece of me

As many of you know I am working (very hard) to start up a photography business. Especially with the economy being how it is, it is proving to be very...and I mean VERY hard. Some times we all need to take a break from the stress of every day life and have some fun. Aside from photographing other people and other people's little ones, I photograph my own.
My daughter is the light of my life and I just can't help but share some of her with all of you.

Phylisha and beautiful Audrey. As I'm sure she knows, I stole the title of this post from Phylisha's facebook. Thursday was the first time I have met little Audrey. She is a beautiful little baby with such an obvious personality, yet she is so calm and happy. Hopefully I will get together with them again some time soon!
