Jen and Travis {Stella, coming soon!}

Very soon, Jen and Travis will have their first baby girl. We all can’t wait to meet Stella.

Only a month to go! I think December will fly by for everyone I know….  except for Jen.

In just a few short weeks this will be mommy and daddy to a lucky baby girl. I am so excited for them. Having a family is my greatest blessing. It is a life-changing experience that I am grateful for everyday.

Singers. Sweet family love.

The Singer family…. Look at this beautiful family.  Boy do they have their hands full! Two kids under 2! wow.

The sweet little 22 month old baby girl is as free-spirited as they get. She was LOVIN’ the park! It was super cute… she ran full-speed chasing peacocks with NO FEAR.  And their lil baby boy- he looked right into my camera almost the entire session. That is not usually the case with the wee ones.  It was G-R-E-A-T!

I absolutely love the fall colors we were able to catch. The window of time when the oranges and yellows are present goes so quickly… and we had such beautiful light.

Singers- you guys ROCK.   Thanks for choosing me for your family portraits. <3 Here are a few favorites from your session.

Meet the Engh Family. : )

What a darling little family. This mama and daddy are such cute parents… the way they talk and interact with their boys was fun for me to watch. You can tell that they are putting their hearts and souls into raising their boys. And those boys… couldn’t be any cuter!

Enghs- Had a great time meeting your family. Enjoy my favorites, below.

Rachael Bloch {Palo Verde Class of 2010}

Rachael…. doesn’t she just look like an artist who should attend Boston University in the fall? I certainly think so- and it’s a good possibility. She says she’s anxious to be moving on to the next stage of her life, but trying hard to appreciate the last few months of high school. Finding the balance between living in the moment and looking forward to the future can be tough for all of us, but most especially for seniors in high school!

I really enjoyed my time with you, Rachael. You are a super-sweetheart.

Enjoy your sneak peek!

Josiah. {12 days new}

Since November 1, the day Josiah was born, almost ALL I could seem to think about was getting to go and meet my new nephew. The days went by so slowly- it was ridiculous how much I wanted to be there in Santa Barbara with them! The day has finally come and gone and lil’ JD was no disappointment. He is pretty much perfect in every way. He is cuddly and sweet and smiles more than any other newborn I’ve met. I look forward to having Josiah in front of my camera many more times to come.

Jake and Lau, I am looking forward to watching JD grow- and I am looking forward to watching you two as parents. Lots of love to you all.  <3

Lauren Dartois {Durango High School Class of 2010}

Lauren graduates this spring. Wahoooo! I remember my senior year… wow. What a whirlwind. High School seems to be creeping by for so long and then all of a sudden IT’S OVER AND GONE.

Lauren is such a sweet girl. She loves to read- twilight series was definitely a favorite. She is a swimmer and has been for many years- lots of ribbons, medals, plaques to prove it. She knows how to play the violin- that’s crazy-cool, but she wouldn’t show me. : (  She is super fantastic, but my favorite thing about her is that she just has this genuinely gentle, yet friendly demeanor about her that is so comfortable to be around.

Thanks, Lauren and Deb for having my do your senior photos.

Ava Grace… almost 4 months ALREADY!

Remember that sweet newborn girl in July…. Ava Grace?   She is growing up….

They grow up so fast. She’s chattering away, rolling herself over, and smiling like crazy. She is one happy girl.

I had fun with mom, dad and Ava, today. She exudes sweetness. : )

D&C- Enjoy your sneak peek. <3
