Spring is fully underway and that means I'm spending a lot of time "at the lake"! Brittany and Chris brought their kids along and we did a quick family shoot followed by their engagement session. Take some time and view my favorites from the session!
Any wedding day in Yosemite is bound to be a beautiful one, and this day certainly didn't disappoint! Weekday weddings in the park are great as even in the summertime the crowds are smaller and it's pretty easy to get around the valley floor. Daniel and Yi-Hsing are new residents of New York by way of Japan, and on the way they had a little wedding under the apple tree on the Ahwahnee Hotel's Wedding Lawn. Enjoy a few of my favorite images from the day...
Katie and Blake are from out of town, so when it was raining the day we planned their engagement session, there wasn't much choice but to go for it! I had a great time, and I think the results were really different and beautiful. Enjoy a few of my favorites from the session...
This time around I returned to beautiful Wolf Lakes Park for Mandy and Jon's wedding. It was a beautiful day on an unseasonably cool Memorial Day weekend. Mandy made sure she put her own personal stamp on the park with lots of little details, many of them handmade by her. It was tough to narrow all the great images down for this post, but I managed! Take a minute to look through my favorite images from the day. Thanks!
I knew I had visited an old courthouse at Millerton Lake as a kid on a field trip, but I didn't exactly remember where it was, but when it came time to find a spot for Stephanie and Jon's session I decided it was time I did a little serious looking. It wasn't really that hard to find, just took a little drive up to the lake and I found it of course. Along the way we shot at a bunch of great little spots on the south side of Millerton.
As is customary this time of year, I've been spending A LOT of time up in the hills. This session is a little old, back before everything turned brown, but it's a great look at this special time of year. We were blessed with a extraordinary morning complete with great light and some amazing clouds.
This couple just asked for a quick engagement session ahead of their wedding this summer at Lake Tahoe. They already had one session, but their dog wasn't able to participate so we we met in a vacant field in the middle of Fresno and made some great images - he was an incredibly sweet dog!
So in my quest to get caught up on my blogging, I'm throwing up a big post showing all the families that took part in my Spring Portrait Event back in late March. Portrait events are a great way to refresh that old, outdated family portrait with a quick little 15 minute session - great for those little kids with short attention spans as well! We had 9 families over two days take part, here's a few of my favorites...
Maritess and Norman held their wedding at the gorgeous combination of St. Anthony's in Fresno for their ceremony, and the unparalleled Garden pavilion at Wolf Lakes Park in Sanger, CA. The amazing flowers were done by Mariah at Simply Flowers and they were a perfect compliment to Maritess and Norman's wedding. Take a few and watch the slideshow of my favorites, I hope you enjoy looking at them as much as I enjoyed making them. Thanks!
