Ensenada, Mexico

I was going through my external hard drive and I came across these pictures that I took while on a weekend trip to Ensenada, Mexico. These were taken with my 30D on the grounds of an orphanage. I thought they were kind of interesting so I thought I would share.

Cynthia & Emma

I had the pleasure of spending the afternoon with Cynthia & Emma a few weeks ago. This is my 2nd time taking portraits for baby Emma and she is always a delight to be around. Her smile totally lights up a room. I happen to think she's the perfect baby model. A little birdie told me that I've been chosen to be her photographer for life. If that's true, I would be honored to document her precious life. =) Here are a few of my favorites. Be sure to check out the {{{{{{{SLIDESHOW}}}}}}}

there is something special about this last one

Pasadena Bridal Shoot

Here are a few pictures that I took earlier in the year. I'm making a effort to blog most of the pictures that I've ever taken. (This is for you Jessica) This couple has actually been married for 4 years and wanted some pictures to celebrate their love.

I have actually blogged this picture before but I love it so much I couldn't help myself

Jaylee

This is Jaylee after her afternoon nap (which would explain her beautiful bed head hair). She is so precious to me and she also happens to be my favorite model. She is soooo photogenic and I love that she poses herself which makes shooting her effortless.

This is my favorite picture of this set

Missing Smokey

I've never been much of an animal lover. Growing up my little brother was the one with all the pets. He had snakes, mice, dogs, rabbits, ducks and I'm sure there are more animals that I can't remember. A few months ago my brother who also happens to be my next door neighbor brought home this dog by the name of Smokey (check out his eyes). I immediately liked the dog because he was extremely calm. Unfortunately, they weren't able to keep him but he did go to a loving home. I have always thought that people that take pictures of animals are kind of weird but I couldn't resist trying out my new 50mm lens on him. I'm so glad I did because now my nephews will have a picture of their first dog.

The Francos

I had the pleasure of shooting portraits for the Franco family a couple of months ago. It was a blessing to see the love that they have for each other and their two beautiful blessings from God.

Vicky & Jason

Here I am once again trying to get caught up with posting pictures. Below is a wedding I shot some time ago. For those that know me know that I absolutely love weddings and this one was no exception. Everything ran smoothly and Vicky was a stunning bride which always helps make my job easier.
