We photographed Ciel and Alan last night up in the mountains! These two are such a fun couple- I love it when my couples are truly interested in being friends with me- that's the way these two are.  :) I'll post more when I finish!

I photographed Kathy and Alex's small beach ceremony this past Saturday at Coronado. Kathy was a gorgeous bride! And she's so spunky too!

I photographed our good friends Chad and Lisa and their two adorable kids last week! What a beautiful family!

We powerwashed the roof tiles this weekend and guess what?? They're white! Haha. I'll have to post some more "after" pictures because it looks great! Hopefully we will be painting this week!

 

Brandon is the master power washer.

 

Here's a before pic! Ew gross!

 

Look at all the moss!

 

Those are my paint samples on the wall- the top one is for the roof tiles and the bottom one is for the stucco.  :)

 

Putting drywall back up!

 

There's actually a picture of me! Imagine that!

 

Brandon had an accident with his nose...

 

Deep in concentration...

 

We also got all the brand new windows and doors delivered! Woo hoo! Those will go up after we get the house painted and the roof fixed!

I forgot to post these... Brandon's 17th birthday was June 9th. We went out to BJ's in La Mesa for dinner. Happy Birthday (not-so) little bro!  :)

 

We bought Brandon a hand pellet gun.  :)

 

Really attractive, Heather.

 

Really attractive, Joe.

I photographed Amy and Chris' wedding last Saturday, June 6th. Amy and Chris are high school sweethearts! I should know- we went to the same high school! They were married at Singing Hills/Sycuan Golf Resort- the June gloom made for such perfect picture weather. Everything was beautiful!

 

This the moment when it became real!

 

Seeing each other for the first time...

 

Love her yellow shoes!

 

Congrats, Amy and Chris!

We went sailing on Friday with our buddy Jay- it was such a beautiful evening on the bay! It felt so good to get out and take a much-needed break.

This is a shout out entry dedicated to my wonderful husband and partner.  :)  Hubby, thanks for joining me on all my photo shoots and being my second shooter!

I know you get really sad that I take millions of pictures of everyone else and none of you... so here is your spotlight.  :)

 

These are from up in the Laguna Mountains on Sunday...

 

Deven climbed this tree to find a bird nest inside the trunk of a tree!

 

See the hole above Deven's head?

 

You could hear the birdies chirping...

 

My little monkey.

 

He also wanted to be like Matt and Kim.

 

I love you, honey!

Starting to rebuild... slowly but surely!

 

Heather is not too excited about sanding the walls.

 

Thanks for helping out, Lorrie and John!

 

The general contractor himself!

 

Patching holes in the walls...

 

Always that face...

 

Heather stabbed Brandon with the putty knife.

 

All the walls are sanded and patched!

 

Replacing the hall bathroom floor...

 

Lorrie and John scraped the whole kitchen floor! No more linoleum!

I photographed my wonderful friends Kim and Matt on Sunday up in the Laguna Mountain area. It was so much fun! Kim was a bridesmaid in my wedding, and I will be a bridesmaid in her wedding in October. I'm so excited! Out of all the many weddings I've done... I've never been in one!

 

This is the rock where they got engaged!

 

Matt and Kim, we love you guys so much and can't wait for your wedding!

I photographed sisters Caitlyn and Camdyn a couple weeks ago, daughters of our friends Seth and Crystal. Crystal was so excited to dress them up their pretty tu-tus! The girls loved it too.  :)

I photographed Kassi and Royal's wedding in Yuma a few weeks ago- these two are junior high sweethearts! So cute! They had such a fun wedding- wish you guys the best!

Us girls went out to Bite in Hillcrest last night for some half price wines! It's a really cool place- you should check it out.  :)

 

Dana and Ani.

 

Sharon.

 

Angella.

 

All of us! Rachelle leaves for Thailand on Saturday! So exciting!

Here are some pics from when we out to Double Deuce a couple weeks ago! So fun!

 

Heather and Kristen.

 

Me and my baby.

 

Me and sis.

 

Crazy Jeff.

 

Yeah, somebody spilled on me.  :(

 

Girls!

I forgot to download the pics from our little pocket camera! I don't know how I forgot about the most important pictures from the whole trip... me catching MY FISH! Haha... it was a good three pounder- fed us all dinner! Yum!

 

Hiking down to the hot springs/creek...

 

Devo making a wonderful breakfast...

 

Joe helped me grab the fish with the net! It was a big one!  :)

Such a sad month for dogs!  :(  We just had to put our family dog, Daisy, to sleep on Saturday. Ever since her sister, Violet, died (about this time last year- rattlesnake bite), Daisy has had respiratory problems in addition to a bad hip. She lived a good long life- and was spoiled to death over the last year.  :) 

 

This is how little Daisy and Violet were when we got them! Such little puppies... so many years ago! Aren't they adorable?? I'm on the left with Daisy, Heather is on the right with Violet.

 

Daisy and I.

 

Here are some pics of Daisy taken on Saturday... she was very weak, couldn't get up, hadn't eaten in 2 days... she could barely lift her head up for the pics. We couldn't let her suffer anymore.

 

We will miss you so much, Daisy!

My dear friend Krystel of Couture Events put on a wonderful bridal show on Saturday night! It was at La-Di-Da Spa and Salon in Coronado. There were many wonderful vendors there and we got to meet so many wonderful brides!

 

My new promo!

 

My wonderful assistant!

 

Heather and I.
