Okay, so I am a couple months late, but here are a few of what I got from our “Click Chicks” Beach weekend. Our new friend, Kelly Goode brought this super cute little dress that worked for a trendy little bridal shoot! Also, a pat on my own back for the hair piece, as you CAN’T tell, it’s made out of a paper towel, tee hee. Anywho, thank you Kelly for being my test dummy as this was my second atempt at film and it was nerve racking. I try to be a fun person behind the camera, but I must admit I was a little unsure and probably looked very conscerned the whole time. But Kelly rocked it, a true model came out, and she was gorgeous without much instruction at all, and that takes talent!

Well, I’ve had the privilage to photograph a few weddings out at Yellow Gold Farms, and they must have enjoyed having us, because they had me come back and photograph their beautiful Grandaughters! These girls were adorable, and I’m sure you think I’m just saying this, but they were so well behaved! I hope they love their pictures.
I am so far behind these days, so I am just posting a few of my favorites that I thought were fun and different…
I just had to throw this one up…it’s to funny! Courtesy of my funny boy Jackson
Enjoy the rest of it…giggles.
Soooooo, Our one and only mistake of the whole day was to drive to the coast the day before the Fourth of July! It took us over 2 1/2 hours to get there…everybody was going to the beach. At each bend we’d think, “it could be just around the corner, we can’t turn around yet!” We stuck it out to have just about an hour and a half of fun in the sand! I think it was worth it.
Well, I guess we made another mistake that day. We decided to eat out at a resturant that shall remain un-named. The food tasted like cardboard, and I had severe digestion problems for the next 3 days…again, it was all worth it!
PS. What do you think of the new picture frames? I’ve seen it and loved it for a while on other blogs, so here’s my atempt!
There was a small trickle coming down into the water creating this really cool scale-like pattern.

Then it broke on Henry, yuck, sand in the mouth!
My handsome boy…
My sweet Henry, We played too hard that day and then on the Fourth. So much so, that he and his brother both got sick 
They are still getting over it, poor guys. The same thing happened after playing too hard in Hawaii…interesting
Ivy has been coming to me for almost 3 years now! She is getting so big and this time I was actually able to give her directions that she was willing to follow, ha ha. I used to just chase her around and hope I got something good. I started taking her pictures when she was 6 months old which was back when I was practicing lighting in my living room studio, and on the begining path of discovering my style. I’m still on that path…
I was so excited for this shoot particularly because Ivy and her family got a chicken this year! When I heard about it, I insisted that I be able to steal a few shots with “Goldie”(the chicken). Goldie really is like a pet, and feels that she should live in the house with the rest of the family. Very cute!
“I’m 3!”
Well, actually, I think this is my first real maternity session ever. I realized this after talking to Daniel, one of my brides from ‘07, while admitting I don’t do them “very often” and was feeling a little nervous. After I got off the phone, feeling so excited to see Ryan and Daniel again, I realized that I really haven’t ever done one before. But, I have been gathering ideas for quite a while, just keepin’ an eye out for what I would like, should I ever get the opportunity 
I also took a few pictures in my little home studio which I don’t think I’ve set up for over a year now! I don’t love shooting indoors, but for those B&W belly shots along with the teeny weeny newborns, I will make an exception. So here goes a couple of my favorites…
