A few weeks ago the beautiful Amber was sent my way by the lovely Leila of Be Inspired PR. We decided to shoot the pregnancy session at the Fullerton Arboretum. I personally enjoy shooting at this location, especially right at "golden hour" with the sun shining through the trees creating fun lens flare and awesome backlight. Amber really is one of my most beautiful pregnant women I have ever met and it shines through in her photos! Her hair and make-up was done by none other than the talented Nicole DeAnne.
My favorite shot of the day....I had to stop for a minute after I saw this photo...by far one of my most fav images of all time!
the bump...
Congrats to Amber, can't wait to see your little bundle of joy!

I have had an overwhelming amount of response to last post about my dad and I feel so blessed to see the amount of love and concern for this situation! Many people have responded with either a bid or just wanting to know how to donate, so I decided to post some info for those who just would like to send a donation. Please send all donations in a check form made out to "Faye Brady" (the account is under my grandmother's name) and on the bottom left part of the check write "Ken Brady handicap van fund". Donations should be mailed to:
Faye Brady
1048 E. 13590 S.
Draper, UT 84020
Be sure to write your address clearly on the outside of your envelope so that my grandparents can mail you a deposit receipt for tax deduction reasons. Also, be sure to keep your check stub for an additional copy for your own records.
I really am so thankful by everyone's kind words and encouragement, I feel strengthened by people I have never even met and that feels amazing. Also, I know my dad has been reading all of the comments posted and he feels that love as well. Thank you all!
Bid update: Currently the bid for the photo sitting is at $500. Again, I will be closing the bidding at midnight on New Year's even so please be sure to email me or post a comment with your bid before then.

My heart and prayers go out to you and your dad. I just discovered you on the Mark Brooke blog site, and as a fellow photographer and avid blog stalker, have been enjoying your photos, which are radical. The ones of your dad are just awesome...stay strong and live happy. :)
