Stephanie & Mike

He's been fighting for our freedoms overseas and is home now for such a short time and then they are moving away from Reno to be together.  I can't wait until they have a "destination wedding" back here in Reno next summer!

Amy and Eric's First Family Portriats

We've known Amy and Eric for years.  They are amazing people and so fun to work with!

Thanks, Guys for such a fun afternoon!

Natalie Claire

Natalie Claire is the sweet daughter of Cindy and Jason Humphries. They were such a fun family to photograph. The love that Cindy and Jason have for each other and for their new baby is evident in all that they do. I was able to capture some very precious moments. Thanks to them for who they are and for their willingness to share that with me!

The calming power of Dad...

Andrea Peterson

This little cutie is Andrea Peterson. She is ten weeks old and the sweetest little thing you'll ever meet. Big brother, Kyle, is the best subject I've ever had. He LOVED the camera, was a great listener and an excellent "cheeser"! Thanks to Jennifer & Brett for letting me photograph their beautiful children.

The Amazing Justin Meitz

It seems like only last summer when I took Megan and Justin's wedding portraits, and we've become fast Facebook Friends. Justin teaches school in Salt Lake City and performs magic shows and has written a book now! He called me a few weeks ago to see if I would take some publicity shots of him while he was in Reno to work a trade show. I found him at the convention center and watched as he handed his flaming business card to the girl from the next booth.

His book is called "The Amazing Alexander", written for kids. We took lots of headshots and different poses for his upcoming brochures and marketing pieces. Good luck in your career, Justin!

Healthy Chocolate Cruise

I just finished helping one of my best clients, MXI corp, with their annual rewards Caribbean Cruise. This is a rewards cruise for the people who are sharing Healthy Chocolate with others, and doing it really well. We spent six amazing days together on the largest cruise ship in the world. I got to hang out with some of the greatest people in the world and just capture images of them having fun! It was so cool! Here is a shot Erin, Michelle, Mary, and Jody. Four of the beautiful people who allowed Kathie and me to share their table for the formal dinners on the ship. We sailed from Miami to San Juan, Puerto Rico, arriving in the evening, just in time to ride up into the jungle and ride zip lines down through the trees and watch the fire flies flickering around in the dark!

The ship has an ice skating rink on it and the shows were fantastic!

Erin, my new friend and volunteer assistant, who also has a talent for photography took some of the pictures and let me photograph her as well when she wasn't networking with her associates or sharing chocolate with others.

Michelle casually shows off the new Philip Stein watch she acquired while visiting the shops in St. Maartin.
The weather was warm and the water beautiful. I met some wonderful new friends, and re-established my friendship with people who are frequent qualifiers for this annual trip. I'll publish more pictures later when I've had a chance to get a little sleep!

Some Family Portrait Fun

Several weeks ago Julie Marie and I had some fun with one of our favorite families. They were all together for a rare moment and we met for these quick family portraits. We got them to relax and just be themselves while we looked for cute things that we could capture! It was fun and they loved what we did for them.....
