Easter Bunny Out-takes

Baby's first Easter. I was planning on taking him outside for an Easter photo shoot, but the weather was not co-operating (that's the West Coast for you!) So I resorted to our sleigh bed - with natural light from the window. Justice loved his bunny ears - he thought they were hilarious! I just love his facial expressions in these four shots. He is one funny bunny!

Country Girl - Springtime Baby

Two weeks ago I got to photograph the beautiful Aaron Lukoni at 32 weeks pregnant. It was a perfect morning with gorgeous light! She was radiant as always, and had the glorious glow of a Mother-to-be. She is such a natural beauty, so I decided to take her out to the country for her maternity shoot. Setting? An old red barn, a flooded field, and a green lush field of new crops. Perfect for a Springtime baby. It's been such a joy capturing this couple's memories from engagement, wedding, to pregnancy. Hopefully we wil be able to introduce little Lukoni in a few months...

Baby Justice Gabriel - Our Everything!

It's hard to believe our little guy is now 5.5 months old! Everyday is a new adventure with him. He is such a gift from God! I never knew how much parent-hood could change a person...and now I can't imagine ever going back. We had so many challenges to get to this point. The losses leading up to this pregnancy, a difficult pregnancy, and yet here he is now - completey perfect & healthy! I thank God for him everyday and the inspiration he has been to me. Who would of known you could learn so much from such a small person who has only be on the earth for less then half of a year. He has such a gentleness to him yet he is strong! The best part? He LOVES the camera! So you will be sure to see alot of him. Here's a photo from a shoot a few weeks back! Don't you love him?

An old vintage car, a castle, and a back-yard BBQ reception = makes for a perfect wedding

It was so much fun shooting the Lukoni's wedding in August 2009. The ceremony was held at the beautiful historic Hatley Castle on the croquet field. It was every bride's dream...white wooden chairs spread perfectly across the green gardens in front of the towering castle. It was nothing less then complete elegance! I loved their choice for the bridal vehicle - this old classic vintage car:
