December Preview

I think I may have issues… no, no… I know I have issues. I bought a new coffee maker, not just any coffee maker, a Keurig! So of course I wanted to take pictures of me making coffee. But I couldn’t take pictures because my kitchen was a mess. I can’t instgram my new coffee maker when my kitchen is a mess! And I can not not share so what did I have to do? Ugh! Yes, I had to clean my kitchen just so I could take a picture of me making coffee for a picture that’s cropped anyways! I know it needed to be cleaned anyways but did I need to clean that very instant for me to instagram… of course I did! because I have issues! And I actually had to clean 2 places because after I spent all that time cleaning one counter top I realized I needed a 3 prong socket… did that counter top area have one, nope!  Do y’all clean your house just to take a single picture? Or am I the only one with issues? So, that was the whole delay in getting this December Preview up.

Onto more important and exciting things! Here are a few weddings coming up…

because. you. are

You are probably more than half way to Flagstaff by now. You passed our old hometown of Las Vegas and you’re probably bored and cursing me for not playing my turn on words with friends. I’ll play my turn, but only if you don’t leave double word and triple word tiles open for me to take. Wining all the time is no fun so please give me a challengeicon wink because. you. are

Another year of college is ahead of you. Another year of fun, stress, giggles, new friends, old friends, loud “Adrianna” laughs, new beginnings, challenges, questions, and another year to love where you are and to love who you are.

I’m tearing up as I type this… you know me, I cry ALL. THE. TIME.

Remember that I wholeheartedly love you. down right adore you.

because. you. are. BEAUTIFUL!

funny

loud

full of life

giving

smart

silly

forgiving

loving

no dancing queen, no matter how much you believe yourself to be

Good luck this year. Have fun, study, and remember to enjoy this time in your life no matter how hard and difficult it gets. I love you more than I could ever express!

These are some images of my gorgeous step-daughter that my husband and I took this past week:

San Diego Photographer | Maya

She contacted me from Sisseton-Wahpeton Dakota reservation in South Dakota where she was living and teaching. A family friend that we both have in common thought she may like my work and recommended that she give me a call. Some may say she contacted me under happier times… but looking at her now, I’d say she’s happier now than ever before.

Maya is a gorgeous young woman-inside and out. She’s brave and wise beyond her years. Through it all she kept her head held high and a big, beautiful smile on her face. It was a day designed to make her feel beautiful, but instead, she showed me what beauty is and how to handle what life may throw your way.

Maya, I am so grateful to have met you. You showed me what beauty and grace looks like in times of hardship and change. I know that you are going to take this chance and live… live the way you know will help others. Thank you for initially contacting me and believing in me enough to be a part of your day.

Huge thank you to Amy Clarke for doing Maya’s make up and Dianna for Maya’s hair. Huge thank you to Logan for shooting with me!

San Diego Engagement | Amanda + Mike

They met at work. They both sported the red Circuit City shirts and khaki pants. How can anyone look cute in that uniform? Amanda! Amanda looked gorgeous and Mike took notice. He would steal glances between customers. He would even make a point to leave his area to walk by Amanda at hers. He did this for a long time until he finally got the nerve to ask her out. Unfortunately, Amanda wasn’t available.

Even though she wasn’t available to date, Amanda and Mike became fast friends.  He no longer had to steal glances and leave his area, she came to him. As time went by, Amanda knew that Mike was the one for her. She relinquished her single status and became Mike’s girlfriend, best friend, and now fiance.

Amanda and Mike are getting married this fall at Los Willows in Fallbrook and I’m so excited to be a part of their day and lives. We hung out in the brushes and back streets of San Diego for their engagement session.

Thank you both so much, you are so much fun and I’m honored to be your wedding photographer!
