BEAUTIFUL VALORIE SHINES IN KNIGHTS FERRY

Valorie is turning 15!  That is a BIG birthday~fiesta de quince anos!  To celebrate Valorie’s mom planned a portrait session for Valorie.  She looks just beautiful!  The timing was perfect ~ Knights Ferry was filled with flowers!  I just love the styling of their session.  The hair, makeup and clothes look awesome!

HIGH SCHOOL SENIOR+A HORSE = MAGIC

  The BEST part about photography is that it is like an adventure….you never know where it might take you!  When Alex’s mom asked me to do her pictures with her horse at Shade Lawn Ranch, I was soo excited!!!  I absolutely LOVE going to new places!!!  Alex’s is a barrel  racer ~ so it only makes sense to have her senior pictures taken with her love~a horse named, Magic~ I LOVE this shoot….everything about it!!!  The clothes, the setting (which looks like an enchanted forest), and most of all Alex’s beautiful blue eyes!!!  You can just tell Alex and her horse have a loving connection.  We had a few little hiccups with Magic ~  He does not like dogs that bark….or leaves rustling above his head….this we know.  He adores Alex’s calm, loving nature as it show’s in these images. Magic’s friends were not very happy to know that Magic was on an adventure without them….. After finishing up we Magic, we explored the AWESOME buildings on the ranch~  I could have spent the whole day there!   Such a playground for photography.  

BODY POTENTIAL FITNESS + HEALTH LIFESTYLE

I am super excited to share the experience of photographing Lisa Short of Body Potential Fitness .  Lisa is a personal trainer who focus on health an wellness.  Lisa is so genuine and really has your best interest at heart!  This is why I am ACTUALLY working out with her two days a week.  Exercise happens to be very low on my list of things to do ~  I really needed someone to hold me accountable for showing up, THANK YOU LISA!  Jogging…..for me is out of the question….  I love the fact that Lisa provides a customized work out just for me & my husband in a private intimate setting.  We truly enjoy seeing her! Lisa’s session started in her in her gym where she trains her clients.  Isn’t she just beautiful?!!! Next we headed to my studio to get a different look~  We couldn’t leave Phil, Lisa’s husband out.  He work so hard at building the perfect studio!  

LAUREL + PHIL | KNIGHTSFERRY ENGAGEMENT SESSION

When Laurel & Phil decided to invite me to capture their engagement session I was thrilled.  Location is always a topic of discussion ~ I truly do not believe you can beat Knightsferry in the spring!  The setting is just beautiful with all the wild flowers in bloom!  Laurel & Phil are the cherry on top of this fabulous session!!!
