Last fall I donated a session to a silent auction for RAD- Riverside Against Drugs. I’m proud of the organization, and I’m so happy that this lovely family won the auction. These children were absolutely delightful! I’ve been around very very few sets of siblings who get along so well. Put simply, they’re best friends. I can tell.

B is home from her first year of college in Virginia on a volleyball scholarship. She’s self-confident, happy, and loves having her picture taken (a photographer’s dream right?).

L is the nicest 13 year old boy I’ve ever met. In my entire life. Like, he voluntarily hugged his little sister. And laughed when his older sister jumped on his back. Not only that, but he’s one of the only 13 year old boys I’ve ever met who doesn’t hate me (because you know, most of them are like, “Woman! Get that camera OUTTA my face! I’m only here ’cause my Mom threatened to take away my iPod!” and L was so not like that).

And little A was just sweet and smiley and happy to be outside, having her picture taken. It was a lovely evening, and I was happy to spend it with a lovely family. Thanks for making my job EASY you guys! I hope you enjoy your sneak peek!

I can’t tell you how much I love overcast skies. They make my job so easy! The heavens blessed us (literally) with clouds today and I enjoyed meeting this family down at the Mission Inn. The boys (all of them), were good sports today and let me snap snap snap away, even giving me a smile now and then! Here’s a little sneak peek…

I went downtown with K. on Wednesday and had such a fun session! I’m all over these urban locations lately- this is the first post of MANY to follow with the same theme- there’s just so much to take advantage of in an urban setting! Here are some from our time together! Thanks K- it was fun!!
