It may have been the hottest day of the summer, but that did not stop Mark and Bryn from having a BEAUTIFUL wedding at the Kern County Museum. I just loved the texture in Bryn’s dress and all of their details! Their story is below!

Two of my favorite things are the beach and senior portrait sessions…so imagine my joy when I got to photograph Tanner’s senior session in Newport Beach! We had a blast on the sand….it was my frist time to Newport and I LOVED it. What a nice escape from the summer heat of Bakersfield!
Hey seniors, don’t forget it’s senior portrait time! Call and book your session today!!!! (And yes, I will gladly travel to the beach for your session, or photograph you under water!)
WOOOWWWIEEEE!!!!! Have I been a BAD BAD blogger! Summer has been busy, busy, busy and I have loved every moment of it!

Kyle and Claire had a bright, flower filled, two day wedding celebration at the Bakersfield Museum of Art in May 2013. As a photographer who is in love with telling love stories, nothing could have been better than getting to tell Kyle and Claire’s love story for two whole days! We had a great time photographing their goofy personalities and showing off our goofy personalities right back! (cuz how else do you make people laugh?!?!?)
Claire had flowers EVERYWHERE….which was my other favorite thing about their wedding. I couldn’t get over the bright colors, they just attracted me, as you will see below….I kind of photographed the flowers a lot!
Check out Kyle and Claire’s wedding below:
I seriously LOVE studio light and sometimes I forget how much I love it. A while back I purchased some modifying equipment for my flash (not strobes, but still) and I decided I wanted to play with them….cuz really, what else do you do when you get a new toy???? You play with it!!! I called up my good friend Brooke and we just did a simple studio set up with my one light and her pretty face! I enjoyed playing with black and white and doing some fun photoshoping to them…they turned out kind of fahsiony and that is my favorite part. Check out what AMAZING photos I got of Brooke below. She’s totally awesome.
When I stepped out of the elevator and into this room at the top of the Petroleum club, I literally walked into my princess themed fantasy land. This explosion of pink and gold could have easily been my 26th birthday party (minus the I’m one sign/high chair and puppet theater). Everywhere I turned there were decorations and details to photograph. (Of course, that’s what happens when you are working with the Fairy Godmother team!!!) On top of the amazing decorations, there was a photo booth (and it was pink too! I found out that Open Air Photo booth has all kinds of colors!!!), a puppet stage, AND CINDERELLA!!!! (only my favorite Disney princess)
Lotta and Colleen were the Fairy Godmothers behind this beautiful birthday party. They are so creative, sweet, and great to work with. I am not so sure that I would be able to decorate any party or wedding this well without their help!
