snowboarding horses

We had a wildlicous time with Brandon and Erin. Mixing snowboarding attitude with horse back-riding; can you say good times in the country, yeah! We rocked the country side jumping the mountain tops and riding the local waterfall..... ahem... well maybe we didn't RIDE the wave on the waterfall, but now that I've thought of it, I think we'll have to try. Check out some photo-dude and dudette-photography from their recent Get To Know You Session. We can't wait to shoot their wedding. It's going to be crazy-cool!

Todd Sneak Peek

From a photography standpoint, the cliffs "resort" is always a beautiful place to shoot at, especially when you have access to the club house, as we did, for the reception! Tebby and Darla's wedding day was a gift from God. When we first climbed into the stratosphere to the chapel, miles above sea level, we were met with an irish fog reminiscent of the moors present during the time of King Arthur and the Lady of the Lake. However by "ceremony-time" the fog had lifted; the moors receding and becoming a lush landscape of mountain and valley; a declaration of the joyful union about to commence. You could literally feel the joyfulness inside the chapel for these two wonderful people about to get married.

this kid rocks!

I can't describe how awesome it is to be Asher's dad (but while I'm at it, let me try!) The little guy is one of the most amazing people I've met in my life. And though I've not met many celebrities, high ranking government officials or spiritual gurus, I am 100% positive he would beat them all in personality, looks and charisma. His love for life, his curiosity of the world around him and his blatant unawareness of his social inadequacies are beautifully refreshing. Bell took asher to the park (which is a place I'm SURE he dreams of often) and captured some of the awsomeest photos ever of his personality at three. We love you Asher!

Ferguson Sneak Peek

We love shooting people in love. Showing that connection and intimacy is so pure and real, it makes its fairly hard to fake. Drew and Donna shined with a light all their own and I swear each time we shot them Donna became more beautiful with every shot. (sorry drew, you're handsome and all but donna takes the cake) By their wedding day, I was stunned when I walked into the room she was getting ready in! I knew then, drew was going to go crazy when he saw her later that day. Throughout the day I was struck over and over with the genuine happiness their friends had for the newly married couple. Here's a peek of some of events throughout the day.

gummy worms

Perfectly content catching bugs and playing with caterpillars in a fancy pink dress, meet alexa. A sweet little girl and lover of candy, she was more than happy to bite the head off of a "worm" for the sake of a good photo. After an excellent photo shoot, she was rewarded with enough candy to send her to the moon.
