A Rice Family Christmas, Murrieta Family Photography
Just days before Christmas, our friends BJ and Melissa—along with their little family—were in town and we were able to get together to take some family photos! My hubby and BJ have been friends since forever, BJ was in our wedding and my hubby in theirs
Amelia’s 6 Month Christmas Photos, Menifee Baby Photography
Oh my I have fallen so deeply in love with this sweet little girl. I'd like to think that I'm a special auntie and the only one who gets these adorable smiles out of her, but she really is just a happy happy baby! Hope you enjoy these sweet photos as much as I enjoyed taking them! Let's start with my favorite
The Wagoners’ Christmas Photos in the Snow, Big Bear
When Lauren and I first talked about getting some new photos of them taken, all she wanted was to take them in the snow. So 2 weeks later, we all drove up to Big Bear, randomly stopping along the road to take some pictures. It had been awhile since the 4 of us had hung out, and I'm so glad my hubby was there with me to help us get smiles from his best buddy. Seriously, isn't Lauren just gorgeous! The snow really suits her. :) This is by far my favorite photo of the day. And we stopped for one last photo on the way home
The Pankratz Wedding: A Purple DIY Shabby Chic Fall Wedding
After a year of planning, my best friend's wedding has come and gone. And while that may sound bittersweet, in place of wedding planning, they now are building their married lives together. It truly is the best end to the year, and a whole new beginning to something even sweeter. All that to say, I don't know if I've ever been more excited to blog here before! And to share these photos from Harvard Photography, with a couple of my own photos thrown in there too. This was definitely a DIY, do it yourself, craft-centric wedding
Rachel and Amelia’s Bedroom in the Trees, Mama and Baby Photography
This photo shoot came to being when Rachel and her little babe stayed the weekend at my house. Seeing them snuggled up together in bed sparked an idea to make a little outdoor bed complete with a wooden pallet headboard, a bedroom among the trees if you will. We definitely were just "winging" it the day we scampered about town looking for a location and finally found this grove of trees within a 5 minute drive from my house. In my head I pictured our little sleepy baby from Amelia's newborn and 3 month photos, but of course the little miss was wide awake
New Etsy Listing: Printable Photo Christmas Cards
Christmas is closing in on us yet again! I still can't believe this year has came and went so so fast. And what a year it was! One of the joys of Christmas that I always look forward to is receiving Christmas cards in the mail! Here are a few designs I helped my friends create last year along with our very own Christmas card design (for whatever reason they never made it on here last year!). Each of these 3 designs are listed in my Etsy shop so head on over there if any of these would suit your needs this year. All you have to do is provide me some photographs and your desired wording/verses and I can customize your card for you! You will then get a file back to order your cards through whatever service you'd like! I have a few to recommend too! P.S. Here's a sneak peek into the hand lettering of our 2013 card
A Pankratz Wedding: Matt and Amie’s Engagement Pictures in Orange Circle
Amie's first set of engagement photos with her wedding photographer had come out so good that I was extremely nervous in the weeks leading up to our shoot. But I still had hoped to capture Amie and Matt as they are in the day to day, because even if you only spend a moment with them you can truly see the love they have for each other. I had to take a break from editing these photos last month as I was inspired to write my Matron of Honor speech
