The Markle Family.

The Markle family has big news! Big, Secret News! :)

Nina is having a baby! But because many people in their family want the gender of the baby to be a surprise, they aren't telling anyone what the baby will be, although they are enjoying their little secret I know they will be so excited to have the secret out! Baby Markle is due on Christmas Eve this year, but hopefully they'll all be able to celebrate the holiday as a happy new family all together & not in the hospital. :)

Matt, Nina & Brandon, I had so much fun spending the afternoon with you! I cannot wait to meet your new little addition. Mr. Brandon, I would love to have you come along as my assistant anytime! :) I hope you all enjoy the photos. Much Love!







Brandon is excited to be a big brother!









Little Stud muffin right there! He can already wink at the ladies!









They are big Red Sox fans!



The image on the right is Brandon's point of view, at first I was just trying to distract him from throwing rocks in the stream, but I really like the photo!















Brandon LOVES Cars. He is so lucky, because he has every character to play with at home. We brought along some of his collection for his 4 year old portraits. :)









Big pre-school boy!



A little Mommy & Daddy time.







Be Blessed & Be Thankful.

Royas Wedding.

As I sit here to write this post, I cannot believe that this wedding has already happened! Ben & Jenn were the first couple to ever hire me as their engagement photographer! We had such an amazing time, and I was thrilled when they asked me to be their wedding photographer! {You can see the session HERE.} All of this happened over a year ago. They were the very first couple to book me as their wedding photographer. And when I saw their wedding I could not believe their trust in me! This was one of the most beautiful weddings I have seen and I count myself as so blessed to have been a part of their day. 

This wedding was so special because it was not only about Ben & Jenn, but a new family coming together and starting a new life as one. Not only does Ben love the absolutely stunning, sweet & caring Jenn, but he also truly cares about Madison, Bailey & Collin and I know he will be such a great teacher, friend & supporter for each of them.

Ben & Jenn, Thank You, Thank You, Thank You. You have been the most amazing clients & friends a girl could hope for. You were among the very first to believe in my dreams and that means more than you could ever know. You & your family are all so awesome & I cannot wait to see all of the amazing things in store for your future. Love You! 

A HUGE thanks to the amazing Jessica, who was my partner in crime for the day. I appreciate you more than you know girl! Be sure to check her out HERE.  

Now to the photos.... :)

We began the day at the Fairmont Hotel in Newport Beach. {Which was beautiful & the staff was completely wonderful! I would definitely recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a place to stay in Newport!}

Ben spent the morning downstairs with his new son-to-be. You can tell they have such a special bond. They have so much fun together. 

Button Malfunction: AVERTED! 

Ben & Jenn decided to have a first look to make the flow of their day go more smoothly. I love when couples decide to do this because it makes for such great photos & a more stress free day! 

Ben wasa little excited to see his bride. 

RAWR. 

Yes, I know they are professional models. 

A few black & whites.. 

I am in love with the image on the right......

Party Time.. I know this is already a very long post.. So I'll close with this photo of the newlyweds pausing together while they're surrounded by their family & friends. 

Be Blessed & Be Thankful.
