Jennifer and Andoni

Jennifer and Andoni met in first grade. They both born and raised in Vegas! Their path went different ways but they've crossed in a right time. Since two years ago, they've been committed to each other to continue the same path. Andoni has two beautiful kids, Devan and Mari, from previous marriage. They contracted me to take their engagement pictures and their future family pictures. They are such a wonderful people!

 

   

                       

Jennifer & Mark Engagement

Jennifer and Mark have been dating for a year now.  They recently became engaged and are planning to get married in September.  This gorgeous couple wanted to capture their life’s journey on prints.  That way, they will be able to share all their memories with their family from the very beginning when God placed them together on the same path.

If you are wondering what they are eating, it's bacon. His family is from Buffalo. They are huge fan of bacon! ;)

Mori and Olivia

I did a quick photo shoot for Mori on my visit to California.  She wanted to have professional photos taken of her daughter, Olivia, and herself.  Since Olivia was born premature, she was waiting for her to blossom more prior to having her pictures taken.  She is two years old  now and has grown into a beautiful and healthy little girl.  Mori is expecting her second child, another girl.  I think she looks wonderful with her grown belly!

Delilah's 100th Day Birthday

Ellen and Sam D'Marco celebrated their beautiful daughter's first 100 days of life:  By taking pictures of such a memorable occasion, which is an important Korean tradition.  In Korea, on the 100th day after a child's birth, a feast is prepared and the family has a small celebration for the baby's health and the mother's recovery from delivery.  In the past, due to lack of medical information, Korea's seasonal temperature differences, and many childhood related diseases, the death rate for children was extremely high. Many children died before their first birthday.  That is why in Korean culture, Baek-il is a really important celebration.  The number 100 has an intrinsic meaning of maturity and perfection, signifying a baby's passage through a perfect period safely as a human being.  People bring presents, congratulatory statements and well wishes for the baby's health and blessing.

Beaty Family

Michelle and Sean have been together for 15 years. They decided to complete their family by having a beautiful girl, Brielle. Brielle celebrated her first Christmas in 2011 when she was 7 months old. Her parents called me up for a photo shoot at their house because they wanted to take pictures of the family to send out as New Year's greeting cards to share memories of their daughter's first Christmas.

This was the picture (above) that they chose for New Year's greeting cards.

Mrs. & Mr. Roman's Reception Wedding

This young couple, Nikki and Alex, met at church a year ago without having any idea that God would introduce each other to spend the rest of their life together!
