Lucky Mom {Fresno, CA. Fall Family Portraits}

I love being a mom! However, that being said it is taking me some time to get used to raising boys and being the only girl in a house full of boys. I am still trying to get use to the constant curiosity of boys...how things work, why are things that way, and even though I can warn not to do someting dangerous they just can't help themselves. I have learned to not flinch so easily when they fall and not to cringe as much when I let them walk ahead of me. I've gotten use to them laughing at anything crude and I think I am more aware of who comic book superheros are and their special powers. Yes, being a mom to all boys has taken me some time to get the hang of but I am getting better.
This mom is so great and I am proud to call her a friend. Like me, she too is a mom to three wonderful little men and I love chatting with her about the joys of being the only lady in the house. She too takes everything in stride and I greatly admire her for that! Thanks everyone for having me record your family this past fall and I look forward to capturing your family again soon!

Hello 2012!

Wow! What an amazing year I had last year! So amazing that I gave myself a little break from photographing to relax and enjoy some time solely focusing on my wonderful family. Now that my little sabbatical is over I need to finish posting the rest of my fall family sessions and sessions that I have shot the past couple of weeks.
This was such a great family! They were very mellow throughout their entire session and I enjoyed chatting and getting to know them! Thanks again everyone for allowing me to capture your awesome family!

Tangled Up in Love {Fresno, CA. Christmas Card Photo Session}

I swear this session had me cracking up laughing from beginning to end! I love this couple! Like so many, I have become an addict of the website pinterest and have now shared my addiction with this hubby's Mrs.! :) Anyway, she had seen an image there which helped inspire her to do something similar but amongst Christmas trees for this year's Christmas cards. So we ventured out to the local Christmas tree lot and couldn't stop laughing at all the weird looks and staring that were going on around us! So much fun and so glad everyone was cool with being gawked at. What? Is it not common to go to a Christmas tree lot and see this?? HA!HA!

Super Adorable Family {Fresno, CA. Fall Family Portraits}

I have been blessed in so many ways over the past year! One wonderful blessing that I am thankful for is the friendship I have made with this mom. It is such a joy to know moms who share the same values as I do. However not only does she put faith and family as her priorities like I do but she also places her love of photography as a close second too.
Not only do we chat about the digital age of photography but we both were involved with photography during the "dark ages" of film. Ahhh, yes I love to reminisce on those good 'ole days with her! :) She's is a great friend and I am thankful to know such a wonderful person! Wishing you and your family a joyous 2012!

Family Time {Sanger, CA. Fall Family Portraits}

I enjoyed spending the afternoon with such a great family! I love when I have family sessions when the whole family genuinely has fun and enjoys spending time with eachother capturing family time moments. Not to mention that this family's outer and inner beauty made for gorgeous pictures...from grandma to parents to kids, what an amazing family they are! Thank you for having me capture your family's images.

Happiness {Sanger, CA. Fall Family Portraits}

This mom and I go waaayyy back....since kindergarten! Throughout our lives we attended the same schools and our father's coached football together. She has always been an awesome friend to me and I am proud after all these years to still call her my friend and to now have our sons be friends too. I am so happy for you my friend to see the wonderful blessings you have in your life and I wish for continued blessings for you and your beautiful family for the new year! Hugs!
