Lucy Love

Happy 6 month birthday to my baby!!! I love her..... she's amazing and pretty much the cutest baby in the world ; )

christine

I remember the first time I saw Christine, she was a model in one of Actives catalogs and I remember cutting her picture out because I wanted her haircut! Christine and I actually became friends while working together at The Cheesecake Factory in Victoria Gardens. After visiting her house I soon found out that was the same "haircut that I wanted" girl. Her mom had pictures from the catalog on the fridge  :) Our co-workers used to make fun of us because we were pretty much inseparable. We used to arrange for our schedules to be the same, and would always sit in our cars before work contemplating ditching work for the day and going shopping instead. We even signed up for beauty school together but then I soon found out I was preggo and all our future plans for beauty school stardom were over. We haven't seen as much of each other as we used too, i miss her dearly! It was good catching up and seeing her pretty face. Love ya girl!

Nichole

I love anytime shoots. By anytime I mean the photos aren't really for anything in particular just because :) This is Nichole...she's adorable isn't she? We did this shoot on the freaky weather day. For those of you who live in Socal you know what I mean. The flash flood hot/cold, tornado thunder day. We got a few minutes in before the downpour!! Thanks for being a sport Nichole, even though it was freezing at times :)

Castellanos

So not long ago, Audrey, Josiah's little sister, wrote me about booking a session as  a surprise Mother's Day gift for Alicia. Little did I know Alicia was secretly my biggest fan :) So I was so excited to shoot them! I LOVE this little family. Josiah used to play drums in a band with my husband called Broken Cedars so he's seen alot of my over the years. I was always at their shows and Josiah and I also served in the Junior High Ministry at our church , we even played in a band together on a mission trip to Macau China. Alicia has been a huge part of the Children's ministry at our church for years. Now they both lead worship together and it's soo awesome to see where God is going to take this little family. I think they should train Brady to play the bass and then can have a travelin band like the Jacksons or the Osmonds. 

heres a minniiiii slideshow lol im working on getting that bigger.... : )

Mothers Day

Today was a great day! Unfortunately Stella had a tuff night sleeping (she's getting over a cold) sooo i shut of my alarm to many times this morning and we missed church : ( but we went over to Victoria Gardens and had lunch, walked around , played by the water and went shopping at my fav store anthropologie  we plopped down and sat in front of the store for some pics. ::Sigh:: I am a lucky girl....  On days like this I realize how much I've been given. I have a beautiful little family... a handsome hard working husband who gives me the gift of staying home with my girls and an amazing God who gave it all to me to care for and love. My daughters are the joy (and stress) of my life : ) but I pray that I can continue to raise them in Christ and point them to Jesus through life and it's journeys. 

Kristen and Keith

Kristen and I worked together for a couple years at Applebees. We actually became closer friends a year or so after we both quit the beez, and found our selves living in the same neighborhood. I love her dearly and was so happy she found Keith. They are so cute together and they are finally getting married this year! woo woo!
