Tyja was all smiles preparing to marry her childhood sweetheart, Aaron.  With her family and friends surrounding her she was totally calm.  The day started out at the Coronado Marriott on Coronado Island.

You are beautiful Tyja!

The ceremony was at Centennial Park in Coronado, which in my opinion, is the best view of downtown San Diego!

The Reception was at the Coronado Cays Yacht Club

This little guy had some great moves!!

Congrats you two, hope Hawaii was everything I hyped it up to be!

Enjoy the slideshow!

Jaime and Dave met on a military training in Texas…and I think its just adorable that he is a Doctor and she is a Nurse!   Jaime is about to leave for deployment so they wanted to get their engagement photos out of the way before she left!

Luck or good timing?    Fav! <3

Thank you two for your service!  And best wishes to a safe tour, Jaime!

WARNING!  This boudoir shoot contains some partial nudity.  If you offend easily or could get in trouble at work, please don’t scroll down, do not pass go and definitely do not collect $200.

Miss R is one of the 7 lovely ladies that attended our Boudoir Marathon earlier this month.  All of the sexy women rocked the shoot but Miss R had a sultry pin up look that totally worked in front of the camera!  And those shoes?  She’s getting married in them later this year! Hot!

Interested in your own boudoir session!  Contact me for rates and details about our next marathon!

When M+J got married in 2008 I was super bummed that I was already booked for their wedding.  Over the last two years I got to know M better and was thrilled when they asked me to capture their new addition…Amalyn!  This little one has the sweetest, calm demeanor and the craziest hair!  I just adored her.

I captured this outake during one of Amalyn’s wardrobe changes…that hair!

She was so camera aware…always looking at what I was doing

My fav! <3

M+J I am so happy for you two, I mean three!  What a perfect little family!

I’m spending this weekend in Southern Missouri with some great family members. Internet is a bit spotty (and cell service non-existant!) but I wanted to tease you all with a shot from our boudoir marathon this weekend! I’ll be posting many more photos (with the sexy ladies’ permission of course) very soon!

Meet Hannah!  She is the talent behind Modern Bouquet.  We worked together for the first time last year at Blair and Travis’ wedding.  We have a wedding coming up together later this month and I cannot wait!  She had tweeted that she was in need of a new headshot so I jumped at the chance to get to know her a little better.  We had an awesome time scouting new locations, avoiding scary animals we couldn’t see and overall breaking the law by trespassing! All in a days work, right!?

You are beautiful Hannah! So glad to have you in my life!
