A few weeks ago I had the pleasure to photograph my cousin Brittany’s wedding.  It was beautiful.  Flat out beautiful.  And she was beautiful, just stunning! …Josh looked pretty nice too! =)

I think I would have to say that it was the most romantic wedding I’ve ever been to, they were just so in love with each other!  The whole family agrees that Josh is a great addition to the family, but most of all we just love how happy he makes Brittany.   I’m so happy for you guys!  Love you both!

About two weeks ago I had the pleasure to photograph our friends new baby Phoenix.  I can’t even tell you how fun it is to watch everyone’s families grow & change (I photographed his mom & dad’s wedding about 6 years ago!).  And it’s SO much fun to not be the only people out of our friends to have babies! =)

Phoenix & Charlie (our new little girl) had the same due date, so the race was on!  Phoenix won!  Charlie came a week later, so the two of them are exactly a week apart.  Phoenix is about a month old in these pics and he is SO expressive!!  I just love all his cute looks!  He is absolutely adorable!  Congrats you guys!

So I am SO excited to announce our first (hopefully of many) Limited Edition Sessions!  But before I get into the details of July’s session I want to explain what the Limited Edition Sessions are all about.  Limited Edition Sessions are mini-sessions that have a specific background and are taken on a specific day (and that background is only used on that day).  This month’s session is Tea Party & Tee Pees.  I’m really excited about these two scenes, they just look SOO cute!  It’s available for children of all ages (need to be able to sit up), and boys or girls can be in either scene.  The session fee is $30 and prints will be at a discounted price.  I would advise summer/Easter dresses for little girls doing the Tea Party and cowboy clothes for kids doing the Tee Pee.  We will have some props for dress up but if you have your own it’s probably best to bring it so you can ensure everything fits properly.

Spaces are limited so please call soon to set up your session! 360-736-0125.

So I’m a little behind in blogging, but on June 5th our little girl Charlie Elise Clinton finally came out to meet us! (I was a week overdue!).  She was 8lbs 13oz and 20.5 inches long.  Everything went great, I wasn’t able to get my epidural (two different doctors tried but were unsuccessful) so it was a whole new experience compared to having Ellie! =)   But at least it went fast, I only pushed for 6 minutes!

She is beautiful and such a sweet baby!  We are adjusting to life with two kids, so far so good.  Joe was able to stay home for the first week (which was awesome!!) and I’ve had a lot of help from family members once Joe went back to work.  And I actually went back to work (for a day) this last Saturday & photographed my first wedding of the summer.  I had a great time & a lot of help with that also, I’ll post photos here in the next week or so.

Anyways, I just wanted to thank everyone for all your love & support you’ve sent our way!  I haven’t photographed her since this day, although I’m going to do her Precious Parts session here this week.  But these photos are when Charlie was 5 days old.

First of all I want to apologize for being the biggest blog-slacker around!! =)  Well, a lot has been going on in the last couple of months.  I’ve had some amazing photo shoots, a beautiful wedding & a lot of fun!  Personally I’ve been busy getting ready for our second baby to arrive (who is now a week overdue!…she was due May 28th)….what a great week to be overdue!  Hot, Hot, Hot!!!   But we aren’t going to have to wait anymore, I’m being induced tomorrow evening!  So we will soon get to meet our new little girl! =)  No official name yet, but I’ll keep you posted!

So, speaking of newborns, I’m going to post some photos of a newborn session I did a few weeks ago.  Hayley & Ramon are friends from high school & I actually photographed their wedding about 3-4 weeks before I had Ellie, and I’ve photographed their little boy Anthony multiple times over the last year & a half and I now had the pleasure to photograph their new little man!!  Little Mr. Jackson was just as sweet as his big brother, with a little less hair.  He’s SO cute!!  He even smiled for me! =)   Congratulations again you guys, he’s beautiful!

Whew! These last 2-3 weeks have been really crazy around here so I’m trying to catch up on everything.  I’ve had some really fun sessions recently, including my first twin session!  Here are some of my favorites~

This little guy was lots of fun and so silly!

And this little miss is just so adorable!  I can’t look at this shot without smiling! =)

Oh my goodness.   This family is going to have their work cut out for them!  We got SOO many cute shots during this session that it took me forever to choose some highlight ones for the blog.  So I don’t envy them when it comes time to choose their photos!  I guess that’s what you get for having such a cute little boy!! =)

This was such a beautiful wedding and such a fun couple!  Anna looked STUNNING!!…And Matt looked pretty good himself! =)  Everything was just beautiful!   I had to do a little sneak peak before these newlyweds leave for their honeymoon.  So here are some of my favorites:

Last week I had so much fun shooting this modeling session!  It was a beautiful day, and I had a beautiful subject…what more could you ask for! =)  Here are a few of my favorites.

This family is so adorable!  I had a great time photographing their family portraits, and think we got some great shots.  Here are just a few:
