Hectic schedules, wedding drama, and big decisions have been clouding my mind recently.  As we are starting to approach our final countdown to our wedding I can’t help but reminisce on our engagement day.  Darren surprised me, with the help of some close friends and family, took me on a walk and asked me to marry him.  I said “Yes!”, obviously!

I can’t wait to walk forever with you!

Here are some photos that our friend, Kim from Kimberly Chan Photography, took of us.

65 days & counting!!!

Met Kinsey for the first time for her senior portraits on a sunny afternoon in Redlands, CA.  I have seen her around town, especially at the local ice cream shop, A La Minute, serving with a smile.  Kinsey is so easy going and fun to be around! I seriously wish I were this cool when I was her age!

High school sweethearts finally tying the knot with their close friends and family present.  The location, the fine details, and their love set the mood for their dreamy evening.

Josh & Dina chose a beautiful venue for their wedding day, Kohl Mansion in Burlingame, CA.

Dina teared up and had a moment when she slipped into her wedding dress.  Definitely one of my favorite moments so far!

Josh & Dina looked into each other’s eyes and danced to “I Won’t Give Up” by Jason Mraz for their first dance.

They danced the night away…and it was beautiful.

It’s baby season! And I can’t express how privileged I am to get the opportunity to document such beautiful life events.   There is something so beautiful about the moment right before the “I do” and the moment following the last push during labor.  Life changing.  Things are officially different from that moment on.  New challenges and adventures await the new family.  It’s beautiful and I can’t help but feel inspired by them.  These moments move and drive everything I stand for as a photographer.

On February 22, 2012 life changed for Sarah and Justin. Baby Ellie entered their world and nuzzled so perfectly into their arms.  She’s healthy, beyond beautiful, with 10 fingers and 10 toes.  Congratulations Sarah and Justin! Thank you for letting me document such an important day.
