i do: James and Angelina August 17, 2009

What a busy summer so far. So much so that blogging has been on the back burner. Here we go on the catch up phase of my blog life. Starting off with the amzing James and Angelina Yoon!!! This wedding was beyond beautiful! All taking place up north In Angelina’s home town. The wedding day was followed by a beautiful Pae Beck ceremony  on Sunday (post tp follow)

I’ll start you with a fave shot of mine and then on to the story of their beautiful day.

The getting ready set for the girls (Angelina’s parents home) was more than amazing.

Angelina is so stunning. Every moment of her day was enjoyed by her and all around her.

The DRESS!

And the shoes of ocurse

Over at the church the guys were waiting. Here is james moments before the ceremony.

And Angelina moments before

 

 

Love all the colors in the wedding party! Beautiful ! Fun ! And it made it super easy to get their attention.. hope they didnt mind being called the color of their dress?

James was really rocking it with this awesome top hat!

And he is wearing these wings that Angelina made for him.

This is my fave shot of the day. I usually dont like the magazine looking shots.. but this one below remonds me of a super fun/happy group of young folks who declare themselves friends forever!!! I love all their happy faces.

Another on of my faves in front of the chapel!

And onto the party! Everyone had such a great time .

 

 

Thanks to James and Angelina for having me along for your thrilling day of LOVE!

family fun: camping KOA petaluma July 9, 2009

 

Memeorial day weekend was extra fun this year. Not only did I get to shoot an amazing wedding in the Bay ares but I also got to revisit a spectacular KOA north of San Fransisco. Here are a few images to check out before the super sized Wedding post comes later today.

Here are my adorable kiddos getting face (and hand) paintings during our trip.

Look at those amazing freckles!

 

Can’t tell you how much I love this next image, Taken as a pasenger while Alex was driving.

We had a wonderful time visiting with family and spending time in the great outdoors.

flowers and my sisters.. all 3 of them June 4, 2009

I am so excited that I get to see my Erin soon! and that she is giving me a neice this year! (maternity session to come in the next months) and that not only do I get to see her and get to have a new litttle baby in my life but that her and Adrian are moving to CA!!!! 🙂 Also, I have ahad a few requests for the need of a wedding florist. Well, besides the amazing florists I all ready know and reffer all the time. I myself love doing flowers. (hand held and pinned – not so much on the reception/ceremony stuff.. yet) both images here by the awesome will over at parris studios

marry me:caroline + robert

Her sweet look as she glances up to him as they stood across from me not asking for diretion or guidence as I adjusted my camera. His glance back down to her smiling slightly as he hears me say i’m just testing my light.. Those moments, the ones in between, when you don’ t think I’m taking the picture.. those are my favorites! I left this shoot with an abundance of images just like this. Perfectly imperfect. Not posed or overdone.. Beautiful, natural, real. Caroline compliments Robert just as he does her and I can’t believe that these two are getting married this month!!! Mostly because I can’t bring myself to look at the calendar page that is titled JUNE!! Also being that it seems like we just had our initial meeting, which reality proves, was months and ago! Caroline and Robert are planning a super sweet day at a location I can’t wait to shoot! But first I must share these beautiful images with you. It was an amazing day which led us to a few different cities. And of course my tracking down the LOVE wall in Fullerton again.  Starting off in Irvine where I captured the frist images.  

check out my runner up for fave shot of the day. love love love love the way Caroline is looking at Robert. I love LOVE!

 

 

Most of the time my lovely little lensbaby sits in the bottom of my bag. I’ve been bringing it back out.. It really likes to see me.

Then off to Fullerton!

I really love the next image. One of my faves

 

 

 

 

We ended in downtown Laguna Beach. Love this image below.

 

 

My fave shot.. see below

 

Thanks for spending the day with me. I am so looking forward to your big day.

family photographer: parris May 20, 2009

Hanging out with these 3 amazing people is always good times to say the least. As you may know this little lady knows how to pull those heart strings. Charlie’s smile and humor is enlightning and inspiring. Her specialty is keeping her two grown up keepers on their toes! each time I see her she has some new cute addition to her already stunning personalty. As an extra treat, the Parris family came up to my side of the pond. Here are just a few of my favorites.

Make sure to go check out OUR FAMILY pictures on the Parris-Studios blog NOW!!! Show will some love and leave him a comment about how adorable my kiddos are. Here is a little sneak peek! Just to tease you into going over to the PS site to see them all 😉 All I can say is thank you..THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!! Will you Rock, as always.

The evening was quickly approaching and the sun was playing sweet sweet games with us 🙂

Here is one of those new tricks Charlie had up her little sleve. She winks! 😉

Hop on pop time

These three carry light with them everywhere they go… They let it out of the bag for a second for me:

Love the next 2 but this one below is my fave shot of just Jess and Will

 

Will saw a bear. and then had to carry his family over that pond they came over to get here and foudn saftey on the tracks. We waited it out there until the coast was clear.

 

The shoot being just day before Mothers day gives this Charlie/Jessica combo my fave shot title of the 2 of them!

 

Charlie carried around her camera for most of the shoot and it ended up being a great little prop. Below is my #1 fave shot of the trio. LOVE IT!!!!!!

 

 

Had to share this image with you.. you must check out Will getting busted! Jess giving him the eye.

Last shot for you today: love this insane angle. Thanks Parris gang for hangin with me and for taking our pictures. Dinner was awesome as well. You are my all time fave family to photograph.

family photographer: rebecca ann May 7, 2009

I love my family so much! Being a family photographer means not olny getting to photograph someone’s family but photographing part of MY family! You all might remember My cousin Sheri who married Wes Menke in October of 2007. This wonderful couple was blessed with their first child in February of this year!!!! Rebecca Ann was born on 2/25 and it was a pleasure to take her pictures on her one month birthday. Here is the happy couple on their wedding day 10/13/07-

And one of cute as can be Sheri at seriously 9 months pregnant, the day of one of her showers.

No more waiting, here is the little beauty, Rebecca Ann-
