Winter Wonderland

Snow, sleds, and hot chocolate.  Sounds like the perfect winter combo, right?  It was for us.  Over the weekend Keith and I took a much needed vacation to Big Bear Lake.  We rented an awesome cabin with some of our favorite people: my brother Steven, and our good friends Greta, Chris, and Nate.

2009 Year in Review: Nate Turns 3

Greta and Chris are personal friends of ours, so when they had a baby boy three years ago—just as we got the photography bug—we sorta kinda volunteered them to become our regular models. Every six months or so we get together at a fun location to take pictures of the family.  And our session with...

2009 Year in Review: Yorba Linda Bridal Portraits

A few days ago, we posted photos of Lisa and Jake from a group bridal session we participated in last October.  Keith and I were doubly blessed that afternoon.  Not only were we able to spend time with Lisa and Jake, but we also got to meet another fabulous couple—Sarah and Daniel.  This young couple...
