Kavan & Natalie April 19th 2008

Rancho Bernardo Inn, Rancho Bernardo, CA

Helllooooo!! WOW! Am I behind on my blogging! Its Octover and I'm on April!! HA HA!! I plan on doing at least 2 blogs a day to catch up!! So here I go>>>

Natalie & Kavan! Seriously sweetest couple. These two had so much chemistry and love it was amazing. My favorite part about the wedding was the speech Kavan gave at the reception... and my other favorite part was how hot for the other theses two were! Love it!!
Here are some of the photos of the happy couple....

Summer 2008 Home

I was lucky enough to get back to my home town, Stonington, CT, last week. Along with shooting my good friend's sister's wedding--- I stalked all my friends children! I can't take how cute and good looking they ALL are! How is that possible?!?!! It's amazing!!! I can't say enough so I'm going to let their photos speak for their cuteness!!





First up.... Orion Carney,
son to Amy & Tom!!!!
He was awesome...
he bounced in his own private bouncy thing,
dressed up as a pirate,
played his guitar,
and let me have lunch with him! After that he was over pictures and ready for a nap!!!
























Next.... Thomas Henry & Natalie O'Kefee, son & daughter to Pete & Caroline. Thomas & my camera have met before... and this day Caroline & I got him all excited to take pictures, put on his Ireland soccer uniform... sadly he thought he wanted to take photos but then realized he didn't. Lucky for me little sis was REALLY wanting to take pics! I managed to sneak a few of Thomas, but Natalie got it on!!







































After harassing those O'Kefee's I went down the street to check out more O'Kefee's, Carleigh & Finnella , daughters of David & Julie. Carleigh just became a big sister and was in good model spirt... and setting a great example of how its done!

Mike & Lisa April 11, 2008

Hilton at Torrey Pines / Del Mar Beach San Diego, CA

Mike & Lisa are good friends of mine. And there is nothing better than taking pictures of people you know... especially on their wedding day! I was so happy and excited to shoot their wedding. They are seriously the cutest couple! And because they know me they trusted me when I asked them to do things like... go stand in the restroom doorways please :)

There are too many good photos that I want to share here... so I'm just going to feature them on my website... soon! But in the meantime here are only a few of my favs.... but really I have about 20 other favs....
The special bus that brought us to the beach!!!

Bitter End March 2008

Bitter End San Diego, CA

While taking my black & white photography class... I managed to get some friends to agree to dressing up and going to the Bitter End Bar, downtown. I was so impressed with their ability to look stunning and like professional models! You were all amazing to me and thank you so much for putting up with my crazy ideas!!! I was using my film and digital camera... so I was SUPER annoying!! And I must admit the film shots came out better then the digital!! But here are a few that were good....

Jennifer & Jason Engagement March 30 2008

Balboa Park / Mardsen House San Diego, CA

Jennifer and Jason were so fun/funny to take pictures of! Jennifer is so pretty and simple to shoot. And as always the guy poses a bit more of a challenge.. but then loosens up and actually starts posing! They were in good spirits and Jason really handled his modeling moments like a pro. The fact that these photos were such a breeze I am really looking forward to their wedding!! thanks for having good attitudes and having fun.. or at least pretending to!!! I think you can tell in the photos how much these two really enjoy eachothers company.

Long time no blog....

Sooooo if you're checking this out you'll see a big gap from March until now! I've been busy. In my "off season" (march-may) I coach girls lacrosse at La Jolla High School and this year I also took a black and white film class. Both were wonderful but REALLY kept me busy! So I have been majorly behind in my blogging.... I'm trying to catch up, I've been shooting some amazing weddings and other events!! I have been so lucky lately with great photography moments!

enjoy......

Kat & Ryan Wedding March 15, 2008

El Cortez San Diego, CA

Kat, Ryan, and I had just taken photos 2 weeks before the wedding so they were nice and comfortable with me and my camera! The Hotel that Kat got dressed in had amazing light and I could have taken pictures for hours... Lucky for me that as just a preview of what was to come! The entire wedding was gorgeous! I loved the colors- the peacock feathers- EVERYTHING!!! I had a blast! And I had to post a pic or two of the kidos that were there!!!
