I can’t believe 2009 is over and I can’t believe how many amazing new people I met! Last year was my first wedding season and I seriously had the most AMAZING couples I could have asked for. They all booked me without seeing any of my wedding work, since I hadn’t shot a wedding yet. They trusted me with the most important day of their lives and I will always be honored and thankful for that!
I’ve also gotten to see little ones grow up. Little Brody is one now and I met him when he was 5 weeks! Chloe, Dominic and Audrey have also gotten so big! I love being able to document the first year (and hopefully more) of their lives!
I’m looking forward to meeting more newborns and engaged couples this year. I already have some awesome couples and I can’t wait for their weddings! First wedding of the new year is today!! Angela and Jason, who did the Salton Sea engagement shoot , decided to go with a date they wouldn’t forget!
I’m absolutely in love with my job and feel so blessed to capture some of the most important moments of people’s lives!
Here are a few of my favorite shots from the past year…
The Raddest Photo Trip Ever… if you’ve been watching my blog, you’ve heard a lot about it. It was the most amazing experience of my year! I met some awesome new friends and travel buddies. China 2010? Hopefully!!! These are some of the kids of the floating village in Cambodia.
