Bright Awesome Colors on a Cloudy Day

I was so glad that the skies cleared for a bit this weekend for this photoshoot! This couple was such a cute couple and I loved our stroll around Fresno for your engagement session! (Even though I may have taken us through a brief detour at one point....darn those confusing streets!) :) Thanks guys for being so great and I loved getting to know you both! There are many favorite shots from this session. Great looking couple and awesome colorful backgrounds! Enjoy!!

Creative Gift Giving

My close friends and family that know me, know that when I get a gift for someone I always try to think of the person and personalize their gift in some way. I love those websites out there that specialize themselves in personalization and most recently within the last year or so, I have been a BIG fan of Etsy. It's an awesome site to find great handmade items! I actually purchased gifts for some of the children in our lives from an awesome artist and crochet expert on Etsy! Anyway, this last Christmas my boys were also blessed with wonderful gifts (both personalized and store bought) from family and friends that we all loved and appreciated! However, two of my very close friends had some personalized and handmade items made for my boys and they were so cute I wanted to share them and the hats I've had made with all of you! Thanks again guys, it's wonderful having friends that love my kids as much as you guys do! Enjoy!

This is the beautiful and creative baby block that was made for my little guy from this Etsy Shop. Thanks Court, we loved it!


And this is the adorable tool belt that she had made from this Etsy Shop. Again, Courtney and family you guys are great friends!



This was another awesome gift from our dear friend. She got this item from this store. Thanks Bees and family, we have been enjoying reading these wonderful books to the boys. Love you guys!




These are the adorable and creative hats I had my friend at CrazySocks Crochet Shop make for my one of my sons for his newborn session and for some of the kids in our lives for Christmas gifts that I also wanted to share! This artist is SO talented and such a sweetheart!

What an awesome group of people they are!! Thanks for inviting me into your gorgeous home and to be able to photograph your beautiful family and friends!! Enjoy!!
