What a CRAZY few weeks.  Between the fashion show, the Pan Pacific Games and tons of wedding clients, I am busy, busy, busy and LOVING every minute of it.  Here are the first round of Saks models.  I will finish touching up the rest and have them posted by tomorrow, PROMISE!  Enjoy!

Rush, rush, rush seems to be my Summer motto!  However, I wasn’t too rushed this summer to get my babies (hardly babies anymore) into a styled shoot.  But, because well, I am ME, I had to combine the shoot with a really fun styled session.  This was primarily for Fairytales, with some Kaiya Eve included in the mix!  Not to mention, my daughter’s friend Bryce (his mom is my friend too) and his drop dead sister Lydia joined in the fun and two other gorgeous children, you know who your are, made this a fantastic 90 minutes.  I wish I had 4 hours, but next time I will plan better (yeah I know, I always say that)!  Enjoy, I am off to photograph the qualifiers for the Pan Pacific Games.   Michael Phelps, here I come.  I will post these images next week.  All of the Saks Fifth Avenue model search photographs should be posted by tomorrow!

Okay……… these two were in Laguna Beach scouting a location for their destination wedding (they live in New Jersey).  I don’t think I have every laughed so much on a shoot.  They are definitely my kind of people.  I HAVE to share the craziness of our shoot.  We started in Laguna Canyon and then headed to Victoria Beach.  I was raving about how great this location is and the fantastic castle around the corner, when I got more than an eye full.  Let’s just say, someone confused this beach with a nude beach and he was PROUD of his birthday suit!  I couldn’t stop laughing as I jumped around the corner.  So…. we thought, okay will give him a moment and he will put his clothes back on……BUT, he was in the same state about 10 minutes later and we were forced to walk by without cracking up!  Jenn, Anna and I had to look at the ground cause we were so embarrassed.  He finally wrapped a towel around himself, but we got lots of great images of Mike and Jenn laughing as a result!   As you can see, these two make a great couple and I can’t wait for their wedding day!  Enjoy!

This was the shoot that almost didn’t happen!  Bob and I had a relaxing dinner with the Chris, Mary Pat and family and I thought I would be able to do a quick beach shoot immediately after.  However, the weather was NOT cooperating last week.  It is a good thing that this fantastic family was soooo flexible!   They were only in Laguna for a week and we managed to squeeze in a great photo shoot on the last night of their trip.  Better to wait for beautiful lighting than to have so so images.  Well I think waiting paid off!  Thanks for coming out to play on the beach with me.  I can’t wait to finish the wall collage for Pete and Gerry!
