Had a great shoot with a neighbor family this week! Ok, only neighbors when they visit from France. The boys’ energy is infectious. I found myself chasing them around with a huge smile on my face. I did not, however, chase them up the trees, except with my zoom lens!

Did you notice the moon rise tonight?? My awesome husband did! Then we popped over to our awesome neighbor’s house and combined my camera with his lens… Wow!!! No cheese or man up there, but some gorgeous detail in the craters!

Crazy hail storm at the school for which I was consulting today outside of Merced.  Wow!  This is the gorgeous aftermath…

Isn’t my sweetie handsome? I love the light coming in the window…..

Great hike/shoot/shoot/shoot/hike on Sunday morning!

A wonderful morning with beautiful children!  Thanks to my friends for letting me borrow your beautiful darlings as I practiced with my new camera! We had fun at the park this morning, sweet smiles and hugs all around!

What an amazing end to the weekend for me.  Baby John is the reason this light-filled family came together; I’m so honored that they chose me to record the beauty of new life!

This beautiful family and I braved the wind on Sunday to capture these precious memories before some of them left town.  Isn’t their light spectacular??

Energy and light combined! A favorite family, an amazing field of daisies, and the perfect light!!!

Fun pre-shoot playing with my beautiful best friend in a dune buggy! Our awesome neighbors have fun toys if anyone wants photos in classic cars or hot rods!!
