I LOVE these photos of our nieces and nephew playing in the leaves! It was so fun to capture these candid moments of pure fun and joy! The whole fam went to Hart Park in Bakersfield during our Thanksgiving gathering to get some family photos. Here are some of my favorites..

I love photo shoots with the Irwin family! Colbie is so sweet and knows how to cheese it up for the camera. Even when she's totally over it her little pout is still adorable. This beautiful orchard was the perfect backdrop for the Irwin's Christmas cards.

Everyone talks about the pregnant glow and it was very evident in Ashley! Look how the warmth emanates from this pretty mama's face! Ashley and David are adding another baby girl to their family and its obvious they are full of joy about the new addition. It was a pleasure meeting this couple and capturing these beautiful shots of the two of them. Congratulations, Ashley & David!

Tonya and Kurt are expecting their first baby.. well, human baby-they've already had plenty of parenting experience with their 4 pups. It was pretty funny trying to get the whole family to look at the camera with all the exciting distractions around us (squirrel!). Even with the distractions, we were able to capture some great family photos for Christmas cards :) And Tonya looks beautiful with her cute, little, baby bump. Their baby girl is expected to arrive at the end of De

It's Thanksgiving week! You know what that means...time to decorate for Christmas and get those family Christmas cards in the mail! Old Town Clovis gave the Crutchfield Family so many great backdrops to choose from for their Christmas cards. They took beautiful photos, so it's going to be a tough decision for them!

Paul and I went to Kauai earlier this month for our babymoon. If you haven't been there, we highly recommend it! It's our favorite Hawaiian island (of the 3 we've visited). Jurassic Park was filmed there and pretty much everywhere we went, we expected Velociraptors to jump out from behind a tree!:| ;) I was 32 weeks pregnant while we were there, so I had my sweet hubby take some shots of me and my growing belly. Those trees! I need a big, beautiful Banyan in my backyard! ..no

This cute couple (from Arkansas and New York) came to Fresno on assignment as traveling nurses. It was so much fun to take their engagement photos for them! They are getting married next fall at a southern plantation in South Carolina (dreamy!!). Congratulations, Megan and Nathan!
