Big Exciting News!!

A friend of mine, Amanda, who I just did pictures for recently called me today and asked me

"How would you like to go on a helicopter ride?"

"I've never done it before but I think it would be fun....WHY?"

She then explains how she was looking at the City of Glendale Fire Department Calendar proof. SOMEHOW the department got a hold of my picture of their helicopter "Halo" from the Glendale Fire Prevention Parade.

She explained to him that I was the one who took the pictures and they needed my permission to use it.

Of course I said YES! I am very supportive of the public Safety departments. I told her my only terms were a copy of the calendar and photo credit. She told me the department would like to take Daniel and I up for a ride in the Helicopter. I have to get them a print release and then it should be in the calendar.

I AM SO HONORED AND EXCITED!!!

Here is the picture:

I LOVE unposed pictures. I am a sucker for candid shoots. Enough said:

Charissa -I- High School Senior Portraits

Charissa and her mom were such characters. I had the best time with them taking pictures. These pictures were not only to celebrate her senior year of high school BUT she just had her braces taken off and she turned 17 just two days before her pictures!!! And seriously...how pretty is this girl! Congratulations on your senior year, Charissa!!!

Vanessa and Matt -I- Wedding Photography

Vanessa and Matt came to me by referral. I went to High School with both of them but never knew them. This wasn't a "traditional" wedding. Yet it was a lot of fun. Vanessa and Matt got married a year ago but didn't get their wedding pictures or reception they wanted and deserved. So they rented the tuxes, bought the dresses (BTW she had the most gorgeous wedding dress EVER!) and flowers, and I captured their wedding party pictures. They are a truly lovely couple and I hope I can continue a friendship with them in the future:






P.s. Megan if you read this...thanks for the Referral! :)

I met with Amanda and Steve in downtown Glendale to take some pictures that they intend on using for Christmas. Have I mentioned how much I LOVE downtown Glendale. So cute. Its almost as cute as Amanda and Steve:
