I must admit, when I book a large wedding with extra large wedding parties, my heart gets a little anxious when the day comes.  Lots of people to wrangle around, pose, keep focused and interested, entertain … stress!  But each time, I’m pleasantly surprised.  This wedding was no different.  Ashley and Steve were completely set on keeping their wedding day as calm, relaxed and enjoyable as possible.  It was wonderful!  The details were lovely, the bride was smashing, and the groom was as chill as can be.  And the reception?  So fun! I was introduced to undoubtedly the best cover band I’ve ever seen, Jedi Mind Trip.  They rocked that party, and everyone was going nuts!  The entire day was so incredible.  All the best to you, Ashley and Steve.

To sum up:  Extraordinary.  Too many words to describe this session, and far too many wonderful poses too choose from.  Chelsie, you’re a rockstar.  And many thanks to all my special helpers.  I had so much fun!

Let the 2011 high school senior loveliness begin.  Meet Erin.  Her strikingly gorgeous hair is only a tiny accent of her true beauty.  She’s so calm, thoughtful and kind.  Loved my time with Erin and her mother.

Carl and Jody … beautiful, madly in love, friendly, down to earth, blessed.  I don’t even know where to begin with these two.  They are so deeply in love and crazy about each other that you can’t help but have perma-grin when around them.  They were so extremely giddy after the ceremony.  You could tell they just wanted to shout out to the world.  Their kindness and generosity is contagious.  Their family and friends truly reflect Carl and Jody’s warm hearts.  Loved sharing in their day.    Huge Congrats, Carl & Jody!

What’s this, you ask?  Another adorable baby boy on the blog?  Why, yes it is!  This is beautiful Lex.  I made a quick visit to his 1st birthday party to capture some family, fun and sweetness.  Lex’s talented mother and grandmother are excellent party planners and never cease to amaze me.  I always enjoy my visits with this lovely family.

Can’t leave out big bro …
