Wednesday evening I took Natalie and her bouncy, happy, and fun little guy out for some one on one time. What a connection these two have!!! For not having a nap he was extremely happy and playful. We hopped in the car and I turned around to talk to him and he was all smiles until we got to our first stop. We drove around until we found some neat looking spots and just went with it. I really didn’t give any direction (I like to see where they take it) and what we got was exactly what we were hoping for.

This is only part 1 because the other spot we went to is a WHOLE different world, and this post is already bursting at the seems with photos. Thanks again Natalie! I had a great time!

whew! are you tired yet? i sure am! ;)

today was well, AMAZING.

perfect light. perfect weather. perfect locations.

and most of all-

perfect people.

this weekend.

and i shall return with plenty of photos to share from wonderful

Santa Cruz.

has it really been 6 months? are they almost a year old?

time just goes too quickly these days!!

so today was Mia & Bella take 2! these are probably my favorite pictures to date!

we started out with some family pictures in a field of yellow

mustard flowers but poor little bella didn’t like that too much. so we decided to head

back home and get the girls a little more comfortable! and it worked!

here’s some of what we had done today. i’m so happy that

it gets darker much later now. we wrapped this shoot up around 7!!

anyway, here is some of what i said i would be excited to post.

there’s more to come in the coming weeks- keep checking back!

the rain has not stopped around here! everyone says that we need it, but i say we need more sunshine! things have been a little dead around here, but i wanted to let you all know i’m still alive! i have some fun shoots coming up (as soon as the weather shifts) and i can’t wait to share them! until then…
