Updates...

Hello World :)

I often sit at my desk during my 8AM to 5PM job and wish I had a window to stare at the world. I'd enjoy my day much more given the opportunity to see the way in which the sunlight hits the different subjects on any given time. But alas, a window I do not have. Perhaps that is why everytime I have the opportunity to capture someone's memories with my camera I jump at the possibilites that explode in my mind. I am so thankful for the new opportunities, the new path, the Lord has placed before me. I hope to be the best because I am a creature of God. I dare not disappoint him in portraying a world in a way in which it is not.

Perhaps that is why I love photography... I love shooting engagement sessions because through the small viewfinder I am able to capture an endless amount of love. The way I see a man look at his fiance sometimes melts my heart. Yes, I am a hopeless romantic and I absolutely love to capture the love a couple shares in their hearts. I believe in fairy tales and I hope to portray that through my photography.

As for the update, I have booked my first wedding!!!! Yay me :) I am delighted to announce that I will photograph a special couple's wedding in Kansas in the Summer of 2010. I am so excited and honored to have their trust to capture the most important images on their wedding day. Nathan and Mary, thank you.

Alas, I have found my home on the internet. And though I may have many, one, or no readers at all, I will continue to write in this blog. I will write about my life, my new photography business, and every adventure the Lord takes me on.

I can almost feel the bumpy road ahead, but God gave me a great cushion for the ride :)

And because photos speak a gazillion words... here's my first packaged portrait session...

The Zamoras... Merry Christmas

Meet the Zamoras...
This family is special to my heart and when they asked me to shoot their photos for Christmas cards I was estatic, mostly because I knew they would be up for a rugged photoshoot... so although I did not put on my cowboy boots the Zamoras did, and looked great wearing them. Here is a preview of their photoshoot...

Blanca's Belly...

Last week I had the opportunity to attend my co-worker's baby shower. We were able to sneak away during the festivities for a short maternity shoot... I met Blanca a few months ago as I started my first adult job in the real world. She was the first person who welcomed me and made it important to make me feel part of the team. I met Blanca as a co-worker but she has since evolved into a friend. I feel honored to have gained her trust these past few months to be able to capture the beauty of her pregnancy. Blanca I hope you enjoy the photos as well as our friendship.I look forward to photographing Baby Denaly!

Here's what the Sunday afternoon looked like...

I hereby declare my intent to become the best photographer I can be. In the way the right brush paired with the perfect shade of make up can make any woman feel beautiful, I aspire to do the same with my photographic lens.

Happy Wednesday and Happy Veterans Day :)
