Walk to Remember Video Montage...

Here is the video montage I have been working on for the 2011 Walk to Remember event.

Walk to Remember 2011

I had the honor of photographing this very special event.  Walk to Remember, Inland Empire held their 2nd annual event for those to remember babies lost no matter how short their time on earth was.  So many emotions were captured and it was one of the best moments I have ever photographed.  Here is a sneak peek of the many pictures I took from this day.  Stay tuned for a BEAUTIFUL video montage I created for this amazing organization.

 

Family Photo Shoot Before Goodbye...

This past weekend I did a photo shoot for an ADORABLE family.  Mom hadn't had family pictures done since the kids were babies, so these were long overdue.  It was a very touching photo shoot because Dad is being deployed in less then a week.  You can really feel their love for each other in many of the photographs as well as the pain they are about to endure to have to say goodbye.  I was really honored to help capture so many emotions for this family.

Stop Motion Save-the-Date

I had the opportunity to do something that was not only challenging, but so much fun!!  Engaged couple Kellie and Brett approached me with this very unique idea to announce to friends and family their upcoming wedding date.  This video clip is considered a "stop motion" and uses all photography and no videoing.  It is amazing how well it turned out.  Kellie and Brett were very fun to work with!!  After the video was complete, they sent out "Save-the-Date" postcards to every guest, requesting them to view their wedding website, and watch the video on their home page.  They got amazing reviews!!! I am so happy they put me up to this challenge... thanks, guys!!

Gradual Process...

Well, this hobby of mine was apparently put on hold for quite some time.  If you hadn't known, I had triplets this past September for a wonderful couple.  Yes, I was a surrogate.  I had a really rough year, as you can read on my surrogacy blog, but I am gradually getting all of my priorities back in order.

I have some fun photo projects in the near future that I am really excited about. Things I haven't yet tackled and are new to me.  My website is still a work in progress, but I hope to get that up in the next month or so.

Anyway, the only thing I have shot lately is my kids, of course!! So, I will leave you with some cute photos!!
