Virginia Country Club Wedding Photography

A beautiful Catholic ceremony followed by a reception full of love. What more can you ask for? ;) I heart Anna & Scott and am so happy I was able to document their big day. Much love to you both.

Disneyland Family Session

A few of my favorite frames from our session at Disneyland with the Mendoza’s. We were able to find a beautiful, secluded area within the madness of Disneyland for a quick portrait session before chowing down on chimichangas, turkey legs, corn and churros. ;) Yummm. I say this every time, but it still blows my mind how fast time flies. You can click here to see our first family session when it was just the 3 of them. Seriously! Time flies way too fast! During the last 4 years, the Mendoza’s started their own successful photography company Dez & Tam and gave birth to their 2nd boy, Indy.

Thanks for the awesome time guys! Here’s to more family sessions and maybe another baby??? ;)

Desi Mendoza - Seriously. Thank you Connie! Thank you for EVERYTHING! For being a great Auntie, Friend, Mentor, and Photographer. Here’s to many more years of fun with you!

36. One Roll. One You.

A little personal project of mine I wanted to share with you. :) I really love that photography can freeze time for everyone. To be able to document a person’s life at this particular moment in time is such a gift. I’ve had this idea in my head for such a long time; I wanted a clean white background that focused on my subjects and captured who they are at that moment. Years from now, when you’re looking back at these photos, you will immediately remember what you were going through at that time, what you looked like, how you felt towards life. Every second someone hits a milestone or wants to freeze life and that is how this project came to be.

I asked my dear friend Sarah K Chen if she would let me tell her story about her and her beautiful girls and am so happy she said yes. Time goes by so fast and her little ones won’t be so little any more. I hope her girls are never in a rush to grow up and enjoy their childhood with their beautiful mama.

Hope you enjoyed my series – 36. One Roll. One You. ;)

(I know I was supposed to use only one roll, but man. Shooting kids is hard! lol)
