G Family {Hanford Family Photographer}

I’m in a classic black-a-white mood today, so this post will be, too! Good thing this mama mentioned she liked B&W!

I met this family at the park last week on one of the last cool days before the heat arrived.

Class of 2012 {Hanford Senior Portrait Photographer}

jodie — Wed, 09 May 2012 17:32:32 +0000

It’s been a long time since I had a High School Senior in front of my camera… I had {almost} forgotten how fun it is. And easy! When my typical session is spent chasing toddlers around, a nearly-adult in front of the camera is a very welcome sight!

Meet J – she’s as sweet as she is adorable and I had so much fun being her photographer.

My Favorite {Hanford Nature Photographer}

Hydrangeas are my most favorite flower. When I started thinking about ideas for the house we are building (it’s almost done!!!!!), I decided I’d love to wake up to hydrangeas each day. So the direction our house was built makes for a nice shady back patio. And my husband is building that with several planters specifically for hydrangeas.

With this in mind, I bought the most spectacular plant I could find and photographed the heck out of it. Now it’s just time to figure out which picture(s) I like best and enlarge them (BIG) to decorate the walls in what we are calling our “forever home” and plant this hydrangea in our new backyard. I can’t wait!

So far, this one is my favorite.

More Cousins {Hanford Child Photographer}

Just after this appointment, I had another set of sweet cousins in front of my camera. Remember these guys? They’re growing up quickly and it was so much fun to see them and catch up a little.

With these sweet littles visiting from Texas, their mommies were eager to have some cousin portraits done. Cute!

Happy Easter!

I thought I would share a few personal photos from our family’s Easter celebration. I hope you all enjoyed the beautiful Spring weather and time with loved ones!

My cuties were so excited to spend the day with their cousins.

And one of just me – because I don’t usually have time to curl my hair and I love it curly, so it was important to document with a photo. ; )

And one last one of a lovely iris.

My Guy {Hanford Child Photographer}

It doesn’t seem possible that it was 2-1/2 years ago that I posted these pictures of my little guy. And yet I have this amazing, smart, clever, funny little person to share my days with. And, let me tell you, I do spend and extraordinary amount of time admiring his amazing eyelashes.

Happy 1/2-birthday Matthew!

They’re Home {Lemoore Portrait & Event Photography}

I was lucky enough to photograph another Navy homecoming in February. I cannot express how amazing it is to be out there and see these families be reunited. This day, four squadrons came home after seven months of deployment.

The first three arrivals gave me a chance to get emotionally prepared. I cry every time, and this day was no different. It’s very difficult to not get overcome with emotions seeing these reunions.

I loved all the personal touches the wives created to welcome back their pilots. The personalized beers were perfect.

Here they come!

The squadrons fly in as a group and go right over the hanger where their loved ones anxiously wait for them. Then they split into smaller groups and land.

The family I photographed consisted of three very excited little ones who obviously missed their Daddy. Their excitement was adorable as they spotted their dad and then saw him wave to them.

Once all twelve land, they exit together and walk in as a group carrying red roses for their ladies.

The families stand back as long as they can and then they run to each other. It’s the closest I’ve ever been to photographing pure joy.

Little L was so cute when she saw her Daddy. For the rest of the time I was there, she barely took her eyes off of him. She was positively star stuck. Adorable.

And one last shot from the day… I love that they have In-n-Out there for the pilots to enjoy! After seven months away, I’d say they earned it! : )

Welcome home! THANK YOU so much for allowing me to capture the day for you.
