Emilie's family owns a huge ranch up in the foothills outside of Fresno (or Clovis I guess) so when it came time to shoot their engagement session we headed for the hills.

So I’ve been quiet here for a few weeks and I thought I’d let y’all know why… Well, my wife Leslie and I had our second child on 12/21 named Merrill Elizabeth! We’ve been having a blast getting to know her, and this week I’ve been easing my way back into work. So here’s a little peak of the the Mark Janzen family v3.0 and a few pics of the newest addition.
