My Sister-in-Law's Baby Shower

I'm going to be an aunt! My sister-in-law, Beth, is due in January and had her 'hometown' baby shower last week (she lives in Austin, TX, but grew up in Thousand Oaks, CA). It was a great shower with a fun crafty brunch theme hosted by my mother-in-law, 'aunt'/godmother-in-law, and one of Beth's best friends.

For more photos, check out the gallery. Also, any Austinites out there, for a crafty fun baby shower (or bridal shower) of your own, contact Beth & her partners at The Wondercraft. And, of course, I am available to capture your showers. :)

The Art Box, Atelier, Grand Opening!

I had the pleasure of attending and shooting the grand opening of a fantastic new art studio in Dos Vientos, Newbury Park, CA. It's run by some dear friends of mine who are not only crazy talented, but really sweet!

Trying out the new camera at Universal CityWalk

Having acquired a new camera, I wanted to test it out before shooting the gig I had that weekend. So I decided to head to Universal CityWalk for a few hours and see what was happening there. I was in luck! It was a Friday afternoon in April and they had just started their Friday night Summer Concert series.

The in-ground fountain is always a great place for fun shots!

A very talented street performer, Chelsea Williams

A Surprise Shoot in Sedona!

My husband and I went with a friend of ours to see the gorgeousness that is Sedona, AZ while visiting said friend in Phoenix. While we were at the chapel waiting for the sun to set, we noticed a couple sitting over to the side. Turns out, Jimmy was proposing to his girlfriend, Nadia. They asked us to take a photo of them and were surprised to get a mini-shoot out of it. :)
