Brenton loves to be big brother to Marianna…
Sometimes she likes it and sometimes she doesn’t
today, she liked it :)

we are in the rainy cycle here
and I am loving it
everything is fresh and green outside
and cozy inside
there’s just something about the sweet fragrance after the rain

BJ + Martin

It was a delightful May day last Saturday when I met up with Martin and BJ at this beautiful lushly green spot for their photo shoot.
It is, by nature, a naturally windy place, but this time around the wind was at least manageable.
Bj looked so beautiful….isn’t her hair pretty?
Sharing below some of the shots I have edited that I like.
Thank you, Martin and BJ, for a soft and breezy fun shoot!



BJ - Debi – I can’t thank you enough. These are amazing!!

I’m meeting up with BJ and Martin today for a re-shoot.
The first time around was soooo windy!
Let’s hope the weather cooperates.

BJ - Debi – thank you so much for a wonderful shoot
today. It was a pleasure working with you.
Many thanks!! BJ & Martin

As you can tell, this is NOT a photo that I snapped today; it’s just a photo that I edited today…..from the pictures I took last Easter.
This chubby little gal is now an 18 month old toddler!
What’s that they say?  Never throw out old photos, because as you learn you can go back and play with them.  Great advice!

Jenna - Haha! Look at that chubby face!
