A few months ago my husband became good friends with this guy named Josh. Josh soon invited us over to eat some amazing carne asada and meet his sweet little family, and at the time his lovely wife Jenn was just a few days away from giving birth. About a week later their beautiful baby came and they named her Ellie. Of course we wanted to meet the little one, plus the Burnham family is way cool, so any excuse to visit them is good enough for us! Congrats to Josh, Jenn, and Sydney for the newest member of your family!

ellie's daddy-o looks kinda like Val Kilmer and Jesus. Both, I know are a strange mix...but it's growing on me. I really mean no harm or disrespect by this blab.

What a beautiful family. And I must say that I dig Josh's beard. Amelia, the last image is on the verge of bringing me to tears. I just love the overwhelming look of love in his eyes as he stares at his baby girl,,so sweet. I know the feeling well. So amazing. Congrats to them and their precious family.

Amelia - Truly, truly fantastic stuff. I know of no one better. You seem to capture the personality of these people in a still. How is that possible? You are a true artists. You guys are extremely talented and it's obvious that you have worked hard to sharpen your skills. I've never met them yet I feel as if I get a pretty good idea of their persona through your pics. Amazing.

I was just curious about the lenses you used for these last few shots. Do you use a reflector? Also, what did you do for the last one to compensate for the back light? I absolutely love all of your work. It's so incredibly beautiful.

Stephanie + Tom were married on October 11th in Coto De Caza. We had such a awesomely-rad day with these two, it was nothing short of the fun we had with them during their engagement session at the Orange County Fair. Introducing the new Mr. & Mrs. Lam!

The day started off at Stephanie's parents' home for the their traditional tea ceremony.

Stephanie had none other than the Uber FABULOUS Nicole DeAnne do her hair and make-up, I LOVED this hair-do!!!

I though her shoes were gorgeous!

Since the wedding was held at a golf course we thought it was fitting to do the ring shot in with all of the tee's.

I'm not sure how Stephanie felt, but as she turned the corner to walk down the aisle my heart skipped a beat to see ALL of the MANY people in attendance for the ceremony!

ahh yes, I remember it like it were yesterday. The smell of the fresh cut good lookingness of Tom and Stephanie. Ready for thier time to embark on the most badically righteous photoshoot of thier lives. Fatefully, the Lyons took on the task like it was ordering a grande hot chocolatte from starbucks in the comfort of thier own car...easy and beautiful, over flowing with creativity. No problem for these two, they work in thier sleep...at least Amelia does...not quite sure when Justin works. I'll ask him tonight and let you know. Over and out my loves!
