{yogi} Carolyn
Today I went out of my box a little. It was definitely something I think I needed in my "practice". I'm a firm believer that we should always be learning about ourselves and anything we do in life with intention. Five years or so ago, I practiced yoga (a little), and...

Becky, Mark, & Miles
It seems like forever that since Becky and I first talked about a shoot, and Sunday we finally made it happen! Miles is a big ball of energy, and handled himself like a pro! My favorite part of these sessions is when you can capture genuine moments, and this time was...

I don't get to take engagement pictures as much as I'd like. Its so much fun just letting people do their thing and getting to be a part of those moments. Chelsey and Jake both have children too (Noah, McKenzie, and Olivia) - so the shoot was even more fun! Can't wait...

Tj, Nikki, Kaeden, & Camden {and baby girl}
Nikki is my best friend. Confidant. Partner in crime. We do lots of shoots, and I know we both thought this one was a wash. Cam the wild man was not having getting his picture taken (like any typical 2 year old). So I snapped away while Cam and Kaeden did their thing....

Kim, Kim, Keegan & Karleigh
I've known Kim D. a long time. We go way back...like way way back. We met when we both worked at Casa Gallardo, probably circa 2003. I seriously miss that place. I'm pretty sure the only reason I can make a decent guacamole is because of those damn tablesides...
