Remembrance...

On the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month of 1918, an armistice, or temporary cessation of hostilities, was declared between the Allied nations and Germany in the First World War, then known as "the Great War." Commemorated as Armistice Day beginning the following year, November 11th became a legal federal holiday in the United States in 1938. In the aftermath of World War II and the Korean War, Armistice Day became Veterans Day, a holiday dedicated to American veterans of all wars.

 November 11, 1918, is generally regarded as the end of “the war to end all wars.”

Armistice Day, the federal holiday on November 11, 2010, 

also known as Remembrance Day.

Thank you to all, who have served our Country...

life...

Life is way too short...

Sometimes we worry about things that take away from living 

and we forget to enjoy the moments we have.

Don't do tomorrow what you can do today or could have done yesterday.

Life was so much easier when all you had to do all day is

  blow bubbles in the wind… dig for sand crabs…

and achieve success standing on your head at the beach.

I thank the Lord everyday for all that he has blessed me with ♡

The Ferris Wheel was introduced to the world at the World's Colombian Exposition of 1893 in Chicago.  It was built to rival the Paris creation of the Eiffel Tower, a landmark exhibition in 1889 in France.  

Interesting note the first Ferris Wheel was built by bridge maker George Ferris.

Pumpkin Patch...

Its that time again... 
I took my little monkey to the Pumpkin Patch last weekend, it was so much fun.  Here's a few shots of him. 

My nickname for him is "my little pumpkin head" 

Have a safe and fun Halloween everyone!

MY JOURNEY BEGINS...

I’ve always loved photography!

I remember when I first started… I loved to shoot flowers and bridges… Bridges?? 

I loved the structure and how the shadows looked especially printed in Black & White… 

I started with my dad’s old Minolta, then bought my self a Canon 

{35mm film} camera…

I love… love… did I say love… taking candid shots! 

At birthday parties, Holidays, the park, the zoo, Everywhere I went… 

you get the picture ; )

When people started asking me how much I charged, 

I made the decision to take my passion to the next step.  

My first step was to get my portfolio going, then get a website up to share my work. 

So here I am...

So, thru a friend who recommended me I was lucky enough to book 

my very first wedding.  

Not as a second shooter…but ‘The Shooter’…. 

Me, a wedding photographer. hmm, I liked the sound of that.

The Engagement Session was scheduled last March and the Beautiful Wedding on April 17th.  

(I shot this wedding about 5 months ago, but hey... I just started this Blog)  : ) 

Happy Friday!

When I walked into the front doors of the Lake Arrowhead Resort I was taken aback.  All I saw was Beauty all around me, then something across the room caught my eye.  Thru the spectacular glass doors I spotted Robert finishing up on the last details with the look of anticipation & excitement.  Joining Tanya and the rest of the bridal party in the room was inspiring,  I was so fascinated with each special detail.  Tanya looked absolutely exquisite, she was calm, nervous, and excited all at the same time.

Beautiful...

Robert looks so proud!

Cherished...

I'm honored to have experienced such a perfect day and I wish you both only the best in your lives together.

my goal is to capture your precious memories...
