Justin and Tanya – Ocean View Villas, Pt. Loma California Wedding

Tanya and Justin were married last Tuesday – yes, a Tuesday!  Can’t beat that! :)  Tanya was referred to me by Christina Werner of BB Weddings and Events!

I am a bit partial to where these two said their I Do’s.  It’s where I got married – Ocean View Villas in Pt Loma!  Its hard to believe its already been 11 months since my celebration!

Happy Anniversary to Brett and Kirsten! (and an update!)

One year ago today I photographed one of my best friends weddings. I was so happy for her happiness with her soul mate, Brett.  They were married in Peoria, IL on a beautiful sunny day.

Here they are on the campus of Bradley University, where we all went to college!  Kirsten was my sorority sister.

And one more this past August when Kirsten was in town on business!

One year later Kirsten and Brett are looking forward to a new adventure!  A BABY!!! I could not be happier for them!  She won’t be big enough for maternity portraits when I see her next month, but be on the look out for baby photos in 2010!

And on another personal note, I just moved!  Not only did I get the new studio, Tim and I moved in to a new condo too!  Its been a crazy month and we are getting settled in San Marcos now.  I am heading out of town next week for a family reunion in Oregon and will be back the end of the month!

Ocean View Villas Wedding

Here is another that I second shot for Nic at Tamarack Studios and never blogged!

It was fun to shoot this wedding last Fall because I got to see an OVV wedding in action, before my own!

Margaret and Dan chose to see each other before hand.  Such a great idea!
