The last time I saw this beautiful gal, she was still in middle school.  I can hardly believe that she is already in her Senior year of high school.  She is still just as lovely as I remember and we had a blast running around the Montage in Laguna Beach.  Although the weather was bad, bad, bad…..she still looks stunning.  You can see from the last image, that the thick fog rolled in during our session.  A little grey weather didn’t put a damper on her beautiful smile.  Thanks so much for trusting me with the hat and all!  Enjoy!

A magical ocean front property, and a simply stunning bride and groom made this one of the most beautiful Blue Sky’s weddings this year.  Petra and Todd have been planning their wedding day across the ocean as Petra had to wait to get permission to enter the US from Sweden.  Todd’s Mom, who is simply fantastic, did all of the heavy planning for these two and I think she pulled off such a magical event, in such a short amount of time, that she may have a future in wedding planning.  I love the simple red and white color choice they decided to go with and the sunset ceremony was the icing on the cake.  Emily, Samuel and I were honored to be a part of your special day!  Enjoy!

One of the last times I saw this family, was when their oldest daughter was having a birthday party at Blue Sky’s Salon and Studio!  Wow, it was so crazy to see how grown up she has become.  It feels like only yesterday I was dressing up in a princess costume and hosting 6-10 parties a week for little girls and now they are all grown up into beautiful teenagers!   I knew I was going to like working with the whole family when I saw her brother’s cool “Chucks”….got to love those shoes.  Anyway, this was one of the first families to participate in our fundraiser for Laguna Hills High School.  I am so excited to work with all of the familes and share all of the unique images!  Enjoy!

One of my favorite disney characters is Winnie the Pooh!  I can identify with his sweetness and that he can be a bit airy (I too am known for spacey spells), but my favorite thing about Pooh bear is he shares my love for “blustery days”!  Well, today being very blustery and rainy too,  is the perfect time to catch up on my much delayed blogging.

I first spoke with this fabulous couple after they toured Villa Rockledge in Laguna Beach.  They have a great love story, complete with Matt mistaking Mel for an airline attendant, and then spending the entire flight chatting and flirting with her until she agreed to go out with him when they arrive in California.  Fast forward several years and they are planning the perfect wedding.  As fate would have it, both Matt and Mel’s family ended up in the same place a few weeks ago.  They said, what the heck, let’s just get married now and plan our dream reception with all of our friends some time in 2012.   I was fortunate enough to be involved in their beautiful wedding day at the Surf and Sand Hotel in Laguna Beach.  Everything about it was magical, including the absolutely amazing, over the top suite that they spent their wedding night in.

Thanks to both of your for including me in the magical day!  Enjoy!
