Our little man took his first big boy shower the other day and he did great! He really didn’t mind the water going over his face at all and kinda enjoyed it. Next bathing milestone would be to go in the tub with his big brother. That should be an adventure!

Tomorrow is Lukie’s big birthday bash #3! It should be a blast for all kids, little and big. I can’t wait to play the trivia game at D&B! Hahaha!

This is so cool! If you’re a fan of cool interior design or just an internet junkie like me, then you may have heard of a website called Apartment Therapy. They have such awesome design related posts over there and I’ve been reading their stuff for a few years now. They have a new site that relates decor with more tech stuff, unplggd.com and they just wrote a mini-feature on our space! Soooo cool! Anthony, one of the writers for unplggd.com, saw pics of the space on our Flickr and asked if they could feature our space. So, of course, I said “Fo sho!”. I’m definitely honored and so ecstatic that our space is up there. So, check out the feature at:

I love engagement sessions! I’m drooling just thinking about cool portraits. It’s just so much fun and also shows our clients that taking photos can be an enjoyable experience. We met up with Jaime and Brian in L.A. for a few clicks and it was a blast. It’s always so great when I have as much fun as they do! We found an ultra cool spot in Griffith Park and got some awesome nature shots. They had some pretty great stares as you will see below! Jaime and Brian are getting married this coming October at the Orange County Museum of Art…can’t wait!

We’re all gearing up for a few big family events in the coming weeks. Lucas is turning 3 next week and his party is gonna be at Dave & Buster’s on Sunday. It’s gonna be a crazy weekend with two weddings and a party! Then the following week we are taking our family summer vacation. We are going on a cruise to Alaska! It should be pretty insane with 14 of my family members going. We’ve never done the cruise thing, so we’re pretty excited. I’m sure I’ll have a pretty vivid recap of all the events…good and bad :)

Here a clip of the two boys for you. Lucas forcing Nathan to recreate the “Charlie Bit Me” clip from YouTube. Didn’t turn out like he wanted to :)

Here we go…I’ve got a ton of stuff to post and we’re gonna start with a SUPER fun wedding.

Destree and Bremer were married down in San Diego and it’s got to be one of the most event filled weddings ever! Not only because they had a ton of stuff going on, but also because I got a flat tire driving from the church to our portrait locations! Sheesh! I was rolling on a flat into the parking lot. Then we took the bridal party pics and right after we finished, I was changing my tire in my shirt and tie in the parking lot. Anyway, we made the best of it…no harm, no foul. The rest of the evening was truly memorable. Destree and Bremer had an awesome bridal party that was ready to rock the house. Their entrances were pretty unforgettable!!! I was laughing, cheering and clicking at the same time. Good thing all my shots were still in focus ;) Here’s a quick recap of a great day. Congrats to Destree and Bremer!

Destree’s parents live in this awesome ranch style home. Wood everywhere! It was cool.

Love this shot…the light was just perfect.

One more shot before we’re off to the church.

The ladies on the limo bus. Nice ink.

Always a great scene. Bride with parents.

One of my faves :)

This shot reminds me of our wedding. So it’s in here for sentimental reasons!

It’s fun time! The boys.

The ladies.

B+G Time!

My favorite spot of the day. An empty gas station!

You’ll have to guess what that background is…

One more B+G to go!

They are BIG Charger’s fans! This was for the envelopes.

Best. Entrances. Ever.

Love it.

Still hyped up!

The Father-Daughter dance was the best I’ve ever seen! Destree’s dad was workin’ it…I loved it!

She is 5 and the best dancer on the floor. Seriously.

Don’t you do it!

Bouquet time.

Destree did some filming during the garter.

And Bremer obliged with a few moves.

Their brothers and sisters did their version of the Jabbawockeez. It was pretty awesome.

The boys did their own rendition and it kept the crowd cheering.
