Bridal Session

2011-08-28T17:35:00.000-07:00

This blog has been neglected. I do not have a good excuse either! So, I am going to try really hard to catch up. This is Alicia! She was a gorgeous bride and this was my first ever Bridal session. I used my back drops and lighting . It was awesome! She is a beautiful person inside and out .

Mavrick

2010-10-22T06:12:00.000-07:00

The day this young man was born, I became an Aunt for the very first time! The phone rang in the middle of the night. My sister in law was in labor! I was 13 when he was born. My parents and I jump out of bed, rush to the hospital and waited.... We watched Gone with the Wind and took a few naps. But the outcome of the wait was well worth it! Today he is a senior high school and no longer a baby.
I can still picture my brother walking out of the delivery room holding him for the first time with tears of joy in his eyes and announcing "We have a Mavrick"!

Michael

2010-09-17T17:02:00.000-07:00

Michael is a Senior this year . I also already knew Michael, except I met him when he was 8 years old. I use to work at The Environmental Center at Oglebay park. He attened the nature camps during the summer.
It has been ten years since I saw him last and he grew into a very handsome young man. He was always adorable and fun. It was no shocker that he would be a blast to photograph!
