Fun Stuff

On the 14th we decided we would celebrate our 6 month anniversary along with Mark's 20th birthday, which was on the 15th. =)
So Mark opened his presents a little early and got a battery grip and a fish eye. We decided to do a little photo shoot and play with the some the new gifts he got. =) The fish eye was really hard to get used to...so we kinda decided we would figure it out a little later. XD
Anyways, here are some shots we got from behind Bolsa Chica wetlands I believe.

Lauren's B-day

We're totally trying to catch up on all the pictures we've taken since Joy and Josh's wedding!
Last month we celebrated Lauren's Birthday! We played games, talked and ate some yummy foods! =) This girl is such a testimony of the Lord and really does show His love to those around her. Not only in her actions but just her facial expressions, proclaim what a great God we serve. 

Here were our favorites from Lauren's special day!

Photo shoot: Sarah~

After the wedding, I had really talked to Mark about me practicing more. =) I was super excited when we were able to have a nice little shoot with one of my best friends, Sarah. 
Sarah was a GREAT model! She knew exactly what we meant when we coached and actually she was just very natural at posing herself!

Here are some of our favorites!

Joy & Josh Married May 26th

We were incrediblyblessed and honored to be able to shoot Joy and Josh's wedding!  As we both have known Joy since we were young,we were so excited that hers would be our very first wedding to photograph. It was clear that everyone in attendance cared very much for each of them and hadvery special relationships with them.  Joy and Josh were one of the most calm and laid backbride and groom that we’ve ever seen, enjoying the grace of God in each moment.  Their delight and thankfulness was quite apparent.
Thank you SO much Joshand Joy for letting us shoot your special day! We had a great time!
