Sunny Summer Family Memories

Recently I had the pleasure of photographing the Young Family (no relation as I am a Young too!). It took me a little longer than usual to get these images up because well, I've been run down. No matter... the images are up in all their sunny, sparkly glory for you to enjoy!

We met up at Glen Hall Park and got to experience some truly magical sunlight. Everyone was such great sports! Beautiful girls and handsome dudes...what more could a photographer ask for?

How about a mom and dad who are super into each other? You can practically feel the love these two have for one another!

Gotta get some great head shots! So much nicer than those school portraits, don't you think? ;) I also do school photography for the littlest crowd and had to plug that in here because I think these turned out so great!

 

Brothers & Sisters are so awesome!

Thanks Young Family for letting me capture the love you share.  Enjoy the last days of summer!

Concrete Jungle Safari

Sunday evening I met up with the delightful Modars. Sure our kids had been in the same class last year but time has a way of rushing past and you don't always get to meet everyone at the bake sales. So, we were practically strangers. I asked them if they would be willing to stroll the alleyway of Midtown and lo they agreed! +1 for the Ms!

 We met at the Sac Co-op. I recognized them instantly because of their snappy attire and awesome family vibe. We said our hellos and were off. It was to be a whirlwind of fun, dirty corners and freakin awesome photographs.

I made these guys work for it! They were up and down, jumping, holding hands and being great sports.

I think my favorite part was their absolute willingness to try anything. Even as we walked past some pretty nasty corners and dodged a bit of traffic they were willing subjects.

 

Roy and Denise you have a very lovely family! Your children were warm and engaging and the bond you guys have is so self evident it was a joy to photograph you!

And thus we begin...

I'm taking the leap. A slow, feet firmly on the ground kinda leap from hobbyist to professional. I fell in love with photography in 2004 and have dreamed of making it my career ever since then. I got pretty close in 2007 but then the cold hard reality of being a single mom hit home; I needed a job with good money and benefits. Fast forward almost three years and my dream is stronger than ever, I'm no longer a single mom and things are shaping up for me to take the leap.

So, without further ado I'd like to introduce you to...
