{2012} "What __________ looks like"

What "Carmel Californa" looks like...

Thanks TJ for working so hard and qualifying for this fun, relaxing vacation for us!

I could have photographed flowers and plants all week long!

There were some beautiful homes and buildings...

I really loved the hiking trails right outside my door.  Here are some of the views, and resort grounds.

There was definitely a variety of animals!

This is the resort mascot! Roxie...

We ate way more than we should have...but I guess that's what a vacation is for right? And no, this plate with the tuna on it was not for me!

Shopping and dining on Cannery Row in Monterey...

And finally, a 17 mile drive around Pebble Beach!

Senior Portraits

Here are three beautiful girls from the graduating class of 2012, all unique in their own way.  Congratulations girls!

Erin...

Kaylee...

And Lauren...

Emerson...

It was a fun privilige for me to photograph this sweet baby girl, just one week after she was born.  There are so many photographers out there who make photographing newborns look so easy!  Lucky for me Emerson was still super sleepy and hardly made a peep for the two hours we jostled her around!

I can't take credit for this cute frame idea...it was baby E's mom! 

We tried to snag a few with her brothers. These were the only pictures she wasn't too happy about...

Olsen Family

Such a fun family "mini" session at Wheeler Farm last Saturday!  I couldn't have asked for a nicer evening, or more polite little boys!

"What spring looks like."  Over the past few weeks, I have been distracted by all of the beautifuls spring blossoms!  Spring is actually my least favorite season - only because we get teased with some nice warm days, to have it turn off cold again with snow!  I guess without the cold, maybe I wouldn't appreciate the warm quite as much! Here are a few images of blossoms and tulips I've captured with my new lensbaby over the past few weeks! All edited with a variety of Florabella (of course).
