{Belly Love} Kristy+Paul

I got so emotional going through these pictures for the first time. One of my best friends will soon be entering motherhood and I could not be more happier. Kristy and Paul are one of the sweetest and most loving couples I know. I know in my heart they will bless this child with so much love and happiness. As one of our other friends would say, “he will have butterfly’s and rainbows everyday!”

{Then Comes Marriage} Caitlin + Tyler’s Fullerton Arboretum Wedding

Caitlin & Tyler’s Fullerton Arboretum wedding was magical from start to finished. I fell in love with this couple when I shot their engagement session at the Venice Beach Canals. To check out that session click here. Their love is so contagious and their passion for life, love and traveling is indescribable. This was the first time I took the extra time to meet theĀ  bride before hand to map out each and every shot location. It made the day run perfectly! The Fullerton Arboretum has become one of my favorite venues. It offers so many different locations and some incredible light. I will NEVER forget Caitlin & Tyler’s first look. It was the most romantic and emotional first look I have ever seen. I was having a hard time focusing on my camera through my tears of happiness for them. I am not going to post those pictures, the couple would like to keep that special moment just for their eyes only. Their Bridal Party rocked my world and were so much fun! I loved how Caitlin & Tyler incorporated their love for traveling into their wedding decor. I wish I could do it all over again! I want to thank Caitlin & Tyler for such a memorable day! And another special thank you to my new side kick Amanda!

{Family Love} The Murphy-Mancini Family

One of my favorite things about what I do, is when my amazing clients become friends! I just love the Murphy-Mancini family. I was blessed to be able to capture Mary & Kenny’s wedding and then Stephanie & John’s. Since then, they have given me the opportunity to capture other special moments for this beautiful family. I love spending time with them and I am so thankful they have been so welcoming and kind to me!
