The Gary Family {Modesto}

Monday, November 30, 2009

Thanksgiving was an incredible time for me to be around my dear family in Modesto...it's always a joy to venture up there and just relax. Many of Chris's close high school friends head back to Modesto for the holidays too so I usually have one or two photo shoots while I am there. This trip I had the joy of capturing the Gary Family. Their boys are beautiful, full of life and full of energy. Mr. Riley loved my "dinosaur" hand...was a sure smile every time. When I was looking over the pictures, I found myself a bit tearful just thinking about how blessed our kids are with great dads. BG is an amazing father and it was sweet to capture him loving on his kids. Barbie has the best smile and gorgeous eyes so naturally she made my job easy. :) We wish we lived closer, Garys!

The Nichols Family {Peacock Farm}

Tuesday, November 24, 2009

Yesterday I had the joy of shooting some family portraits for an amazing florist in our area - Flowers To You By Jessica. Jessica is unbelievably talented and has such a fun, energetic personality. Recently her and her husband undertook another adventure in opening Peacock Farms for weddings and parties...it is a beautiful, homey venue! Needless to say, when she told me that she wanted her family portraits taken at Peacock Farms, I was thrilled. Even more exciting for me was that I got to take her new baby boy's pictures. He is beautiful and loves his big sister. Watching the laugher between this family and seeing the joy a new baby brings was a blessing to me to experience. Thanks, Jessica for the pleasure of being with your family!

The Prickett Family {Grover Beach}

Monday, November 23, 2009

Oh my goodness! Words cannot explain how adorable Miss Maddie was while I captured her sweet personality Saturday! She had my heart melting and it reminded me that there is just something so precious about a baby girl. I had the honor of photographing her parents wedding about 2 years ago so it was a true joy to see how their family has increased over the last few years. While snapping my camera like crazy I giggled to myself because Maddie truly loves her mama but clearly has a soft spot for her daddy. Riley could get his baby girl to smile and laugh just by saying her sweet name. Wow...what a gift children are!

The Jennings Family {San Miguel}

Sunday, November 22, 2009

The holiday season is always so sweet to me because I get to photography families with new additions. The Jennings Family have a precious one year old daughter who is the joy of their lives. We ventured out to San Miguel for our session and had a great time walking around and stopping at whatever caught our attention. Miss Maddison was a trooper and apparently got wore out from her modeling because she fell asleep as soon as she got in her car seat...the life of a model is hard.

...one of the best in the industry. I had the honor today to shoot a few shots of her for her website and other advertising pieces. Being a bit photo shy, Jenn rocked the camera! She is truly stunning and her eyes just pop with color...needless to say, I had a great time just being with her. Thanks, Jenn!
