As most of you are aware, Ceremony Magazine is Southern California's premier wedding publication that only chooses a small number of vendors to advertise in their magazine. This is the second year that I will be advertising with them, and have had record breaking years with bookings and I know that along with word of mouth referrals, Ceremony has been instrumental in my successes.

I was chosen this year to shoot their children's portion for their 2008 publication...what an honor for me!!! With great anticipation, and some really adorable models, I shot one of my most amazing shoots with children yesterday!

Kelli Martin from Tantrum Salon did all the hair and Kary Heimbach from kary h events helped to keep us organized and on track!!! Thanks to my awesome team and everyone else who was there to help this go so smoothly!

There are so many that I want to share, but you will have to wait to see which one's they choose for Ceremony's 2008 edition!

>The second set of images had this beautiful vintage 1967 Austin Healey car...my wonderful in-laws, Ron and Ellen, graciously let us use it for one of our props.
Thank you Ron and Ellen!!! These images are unbelievable!

Love-Love-Love this next location we went to...The Claremont Train Depot. Very vintage-inspired and the kids had an absolute blast here!

This past Sunday I was a part of the exclusive Wedding Studio bridal show that was held at the beautiful Balboa Bay Club in Newport Beach.

My first show...and I had a blast! Lots of awesome vendors and potential clients!
The very organized Wendy Dahl from Dahl Wedding Company coordinated this event. Thank you, Wendy, for a flawless show!!! You worked so hard on this!!!
I also have to give a shout out to Rrivre. Rrivre from Rrivre Works provided all of the design for this show, and it was unbelievably cool.
Good job, Rrivre, and thanks again for all of your hard work on this!

I look forward to hearing from those of you who I had the pleasure of meeting!!!

Here is a quick shot of my booth that I took on my little point & shoot.

And here are my friends Katie Clark and Stephanie Kennedy. Katie is a fellow photographer and Stephanie owns Stephanie James Couture.

Love you, girls!!! It was great seeing you again!!!

Wow! I just LOVE photoshop!
I have been editing for my BRAND SPANKIN' NEW WEBSITE (coming soon, I PROMISE!!!) for the past 3 days straight and
I just HAD to blog about how cool my photoshop actions are!!!

See the before shot? Fun, but a little drab...

O.K..now here is the punch it needed to be a killer shot!!!

Here's another one...love the composition, but a little dark... Now here is my edited version...sweeeet!

Thought I would share the event cards that I offer to my wedding clients to have available at their reception!
It has lots of fun images of their engagement session and has all of the information necessary for their guests to view their images on Pictage!

As I started to look through all of my favorite photographs from 2006, I decided to put them together into a slideshow.

It is so exciting to re-cap every one of those events....

Enjoy the slideshow!!!
