My girl Tormented Sugar wrote a pretty amazing blog about her boudoir photo shoot experience! Here's an excerpt: "Dear Diary, Omg so I’m driving to my photo shoot I’m feeling nervous … what is it going to be like? Will the photographer like any of the choices of...

Michelle and Chance are pretty much pre-engaged, enjoying their lives together, building a cool little blended family unit. They're a wonderful couple with an adorable little baby, Maverick. It's so wonderful to see Michelle so happy again! We photographed her first...

Giant Jenga & Champagne Cocktails ~ What a Wild Weekend

I've said it before and I'll say it again... There's nothing like a print. This print is 134 years old, they didn't have the technology we have today, and it's STILL around! Amazing! It's a hand-tinted print (no color film back then!) and it's held up remarkably well...
Throwback Thursday ~ Ghosts of Venues Past
Today I'd like to throw back to one of my fave ceremony photos. This is Lynae and Jesse's wedding at The Rivermill in French Camp on September 28, 2007. Their ceremony was only lit by candles, which was beautiful. I'm so glad I got to step back to get this quiet...
