Baby Z

I love newborns.  I love the smell.  I love the cuddling.  I love the coos.  I love everything about newborns.  This one was no exception.  Sweet as can be and his parents are pretty awesome too.

Family [A Giveaway]

A few days ago, one of my clients sent me an email that her husband had passed away and that the pictures that I had taken of them as a family are even more cherished now.  This news has really rocked my world.  This was a young father and husband, a sweet, funny, handsome man who had so much more of his life to live.  Which brings me back to why it is so very, very, important to take family pictures.  I know that I am guilty of it.  We are too busy. I am feeling fat. We have nothing to wear.  But it is so very important to do.  Life is short.  Fleeting.  I want my children to remember what their life was like.  I want them to know that I loved them more than anything else in this world.   I want them to know that their father and I loved each other.  It shows in these picture of us taken by Tara Whitney.  I booked the session as my 34th birthday present to myself.  It was one of the best things that I have ever done.  Not only am I in love with the pictures, but we had the best day.  Weekend really.  We took a trip to LA and drove down to Orange County to meet Tara (who was perfect in every way).  It was one of the best weekends on memory.  And I have the pictures to prove it.

So, the giveaway.  I will do a family session and give the winners my digital file package.  Valued at $1650.

The Brady Family

I have not blogged in a long time.  Shame on me.  I have been working a lot and with the kids out of school, it seems my blogging has fallen to the wayside.  I promise that I will be a better blogger from now on.  I do blog a lot on my other website, Baked Bree, check out what is cooking other there.   In the meantime, how adorable is this family?  The two little boys in these pictures are very good friends with my older children.  N and my William are best buds and are in the same class at St. John’s.  M and Ava were in the same preschool class and Ava has informed me many times that she is in love with M and they are going to get married.  I am so not ready for that.  This lovely, sweet, family, has been so good to us during our time in California.  We love having them in our lives.  And I love how they are as a family.  These two little boys have a lot of people that love them and take care of them.  They are the luckiest boys around.

Autumn + Kevan = Happily Ever After [Sacramento Wedding Photographer]

Autumn and Kevan are a gorgeous couple that had a gorgeous wedding.  90 of their closest friends and family came to the Hawkesdene House in Andrews, NC to celebrate this day with them.  I spent the weekend with them, knowing no one other than the bride and groom and came home with 88 new friends.  Warm and welcoming and full of love for Autumn and Kevan.  A beautiful, heartfelt ceremony was performed by Autumn’s childhood pastor.  Kevan is a Coast Guard pilot that flies with my husband and I had forgotten how much I love a military wedding.  It reminds me that I did not just marry my husband, but the Coast Guard as well.

I am sharing a few of my favorite images from the day, but please watch the slideshow at the bottom of this post to see the rest.

Autumn and Kevan, thank you for the honor of documenting your day and allowing me to be a part of it.  Much love to you both.

** a special thank you to Erin O’Neil who drove from Greenville, SC to second shoot with me.  I could not have done it without her. **
