Thank you to everyone for helping make 2011 Blue Sky’s Studio most successful year to date!  I know I have been MIA, but with shooting, processing and meeting with clients, my plate has been full.  However, hopefully I am now back!  I just wanted to share one  sassy family’s photography session!  More to follow.  Thanks to the Morris family for reminding my again why I am in love with photography!

Happy Friday everyone!  I just had to share my family shoot for 2011 that Kristin did.  As always, the girl did a stellar job.  We had so much fun in Venice and Laguna Beach with her.  Even though my little man was not in a picture-taking mood {the kid is 2 and has his own ideas on what we should be doing on a Saturday morning…..so stubborn…..I have no idea where he gets that from….. ;) }, Kristin was still able to get some great shots of him as well as everyone else.  It helps that she has killer skills and speed with that camera of hers.  Thank you Kristin for the great pics!  Now I can get cracking on our Holiday Cards!

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 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!

Great food, great music and an unbelievable view perfectly describes Connie and Mike’s beach front wedding by An All Inclusive Event.  Although Connie had a little hair emergency and we had an extremely high tide for the wedding portraits, the wedding went off without a hitch!  It was so sweet to see Connie with her Dad, and her Dad with all his grandkids.   There is a lot of love in this family!   Enjoy!
