What a wonderful session I had with Ashlee! Not only she was a beautiful young model, with style and grace, she was also not afraid to roll around in dirt and grass for some good photos! Way to go Ashlee! And special thanks to Nikki for helping me with the props and makeup and also being a wonderful assistant! Enjoy your photos..

My good friend Sarah is having another baby! I am so excited for three of them, not only Andy and Sarah are the most wonderful parents I have known, they are the most patient and loving family of three!  God bless your new home and safe delivery to you Sarah!

I have to admit, the wedding of Michelle and Aaron’s was inspiring, beautiful with light sweet summer breeze! And the story of their love that blossomed from long time and friendship is touching! The feelings between two are the deepest and  sincere!  Their wedding night was absolutely gorgeous and the bride was simply breathtaking! Well you be the judge, here are some of the photos from the wedding. But first, I have to thank all the people who put all their efforts in making it happen, behind the scene credits go to:

Amazing and fun session with these two love birds who are getting married on September 29, 2012! They met only in November of last year and already wanted to be married for life! Not only these two creating a love nest, they also creating a loving home for their 3 children! I wish you so much love and happiness that it would not fit in any horse arena!

Holly and Jeremy are expecting their first little girl and are very happy. I so much enjoyed their company and I am sure their baby will get lots of attention and love! Happy delivery!

These two had put a crazy hell of a show, amazing! Couple of shots for now and more to come..

Great session with Brittany, the bride to be! We had lots of fun! This is her present for her fiance, so shh! Their wedding is scheduled to be on October 13, 2012 at Ponderosa Ridge Ranch! Its going to be a beautiful event!

I talked to Leah on a phone once or twice before the wedding, she impressed me with her love story and the personal struggle she had to overcome. I was touched..Then we met on her wedding day,  I cried..Yes, I did ..When Mike and Leah shared their vows in front of their family, I simply could not hold my emotions!  It was touchy, personal and so sincere! The wedding and the dove releasing ceremony was just an amazing and beautiful event! But, for those who could not make it, here is a small and humble slide show to review …Dear Mike and Leah, may I wish you love that would always stays with you and come back to you like your white doves at the wedding!

Many thanks to all the people who helped with the wedding, including  Morgan Fisher at Accent Digital Publishing, Mike Norvell at Fat Daddy’s BBQ, DJ Randy at Sounds Familiar, Kim Benson, and Chad and Kesey at Topshelf Beverage, Redding Bar. Wedding cake was done by  Its all about cake, Redding, Ca,  flowers from Costco of Redding, tuxedos from Men’s Wearhouse, and of course the bridal dress from Davi’s Bridal.

It was a beautiful warm day in Redding, you could almost touch the summer, birds were sining, flowers were blooming..But when we got to Lassen,  we had to find our sweaters. Over 3,000 ft elevation, the cold breeze felt like needles on the skin! Lets just say it was some work for me to photoshop these goosebumps on Michelle’s and Aaron! Despite the cold and windy day up in Lassen, we managed to get great photos and had some fun! After 9 or so years, Aaron proposed Michelle, unexpectedly while on a fishing trip. She said yes crying while it was all cough on film! They choose to have their engagement done at Lassen, it was one of their first trips them made together and where Aaron, now a professional fishing guide, tough Michelle how to catch a fish! I hope you two catch so many fish together, that you can feed the whole world and I cannt wait to see you guys at your wedding that is coming up very soon. Mark your calendars everyone, July 28, 2012, it is going to be a very nice, warm and beautiful event!
