Being new to the desert I never would have thought I would find a place so close to home that would feel a little more woodsy.  But when I got the inquiry from Bethan and we talked about the Whitewater Preserve I was super excited for what was in store.  Prior to our session I drove out to take a peek.  I found that I no longer felt like I was in the desert.  It was heaven!  Don’t get me wrong, the desert has its good points but I really miss the foothills.  So it is really nice to have a spot that is about 30 minutes away that feels a little like being in the foothills again.

Our session day arrived and this family rocked it!! No complaining out of any of the boys, which with boys and dads it is bound to happen at least once.  Sometimes I think it is in their genes.  lol!  But not with this family.  They were amazing!  We got so many awesome shots and had a blast doing it.  Even the baby, Lennox, was giving us some crazy funny faces up through the end.

Such a fun session and I will definitely be using that location again!

Enjoy!

Wow!!  The last day of 2011.  It seems like yesterday I was scrambling to get my blog up and running before the New Year.  Thankfully I managed to do it with 2 minutes to spare.  39 posts and over 35,000 views later it is plugging along.  :)  This year I plan on making my blog more of a priority.  So stay tuned for double the posts.  Next week be on the look out for the last few posts from 2011 sessions at Disneyland, Ace Hotel in Palm Springs, and a few others.  So much yumminess!

The last few days I have been narrowing down my faves of 2011 and wow so many amazing clients and fun times.  I can’t help but smile as I go through them. I am sure if one of my kids walked by they would have given me some crazy remark about smiling at my computer.  Without further ado, here are some of my favorite images from 2011, completely random order.  Some of the sessions featured have not made it to the blog yet and will be soon.

Thank you to all my wonderful clients and fans!  This has been an amazing year and I cannot wait to see what 2012 has in store.  May all of you have a wonderful New Year!
