Cleo’s Family | Glen Park Canyon

July 13, 2013

I’ve known Erica and Belmer since before there was an Erica and Belmer and I have loved seeing their relationship grow and develop over the years and was over the moon when I met their adorable son Levi and couldn’t wait to meet their scrumptious daughter  Oceana (who I had only met previously in her momma’s belly).  Then their’s Cleo, my old friend Cleo…let me explain, I used to housesit for Erica and Belmer and I would hang with my girl Cleo (she’s the dog in case you hadn’t figured that out yet), we would go on adventures to Bernal hill and spent lazy afternoons in their fabulous backyard.  So needless to say I was thrilled for the opportunity to capture this beautiful family full of love, laughter and sometimes a tantrum and with Grandma in town for Levi’s birthday the timing was perfect.

Danielle & Stephan are having a baby!!! | Alameda

July 5, 2013

I’ve known Danielle and Stephan since before there was a Danielle and Stephan!  My adventures with this wonderful family I now consider myself to be part of,  begin with Danielle’s older sister and her beautiful pregnancy which brought the adorable Laiyah into the world, who is now almost four and I’m so happy to say I’ve been there to watch her grow every step of the way.  Then two and half years ago I got the phone call that Danielle and Stephan were in love and ready to tie the knot!  So we jumped right in and planned a gorgeous engagement session followed by their stunning pastel pink summer wedding at Palmdale Estates last June and now we are celebrating two becoming three with Eden Alexandra on the way!!!

First comes the engagement….

Then comes the wedding…

Then comes baby on the way!!!

Matt & Tamyra’s Gorgeous Outdoor Wedding | Radonich Ranch

July 4, 2013

Tamyra found me through a Living Social deal I ran for family portraits last Spring and after a few chats on phone they had chosen me to capture what I knew would be beautiful wedding but it wasn’t until T and I became friends that I began to understand just how  gorgeous, romantic, and emotional their day would be.  I was in awe of the details, colors and overall look and feel of their day,  from the antique suitcases, to the doilies and wedding dress made by her mom, to all the fabulous DIY decor …it was stunning.

These two gorgeous and fit love birds met at the gym they both used to work at (did I mention how fit they are?  Tamyra was actually my personal trainer for awhile and she did a fabulous job of kicking my butt!)  They began their relationship in secret as co-workers, but their undercover love was forced to the surface with amazing news that they were having a baby.  First came Olivia who is 4 now,then two years later little Casey and when Matt made his loving fatherly vows to his two beautiful daughters during the ceremony there wasn’t a dry eye in the house…ours included!

I’m so happy for you guys and ALL the love you have!
