The Devers

Last weekend Ryan & I flew up to San Francisco to do a photo shoot for The Devers family. On April 24th, 2009 we welcomed Greyson Brian into the world. Having been there for the birth, it was amazing to see how much He'd grown in just a few weeks! I know I may be slightly biased because it's family, but I really think this is one of the most beautiful families you'll ever see. And since I am the proudest auntie of these three amazingly gorgeous kids I might get a little carried away in posting so many pictures. Thank you, Devers, for letting us share in the Journey with you. We love you!

Oh Canada!

More from our Journey to the Great North. I was blown away at just how spectacularly gorgeous Canada was. Everywhere you go there's just so much natural beauty. It was a travel photographer's paradise. And there's something so freeing about being in the great outdoors, shooting in the wind and the beauty of natural light. Then spending time on Victoria Island I felt like I was transported back to Europe again; it was interesting how much that town reminded me of a minature Dublin. I would really reccomend a lovely weekend getaway to this darling little Canadian harbor town! Thank you for sharing in our Journey today.

Pike Place Market

Ryan and I had such a wonderful time in Seattle & Victoria, B.C. Since it was my first time to both cities I really enjoyed playing tourist and capturing a lot of the characteristics that make both of those places so unique. I love finding charm in the midst of a city's everyday life. To be continued...

What's in a name?

My latest kick is a form of photography often referred to as Alphabet Art. The goal is to photograph random objects that reflect a specific letter of the alphabet. For Ryan's birthday last week I decided to make him one with our last name. If you look closely you'll see the letters DENTT spelled out in the photo. And while I can't take credit for the original idea, I can say that it was way more of a challenge than I thought it would be to find & photograph letters in everyday objects. My goal now is to shoot the entire alphabet, all in the form of anything but the actual printed letter itself. You should try it. It's definitely harder than you might think!

Welcome Little Angel

Welcome to the world, my sweet nephew Greyson Brian Devers. Thank you for participating in your first (of many!) photo shoots. I love you, sweet boy. Happy first day of life.

Josh & Jaclyn

I know I'm waaay behind in postings these days and have come to the realization that I just won't be able to get to posting all my shoots, but this one was just too beautiful to not share. Josh & Jaclyn got married at the Dallas Arboretum on a beautiful, springtime-in-Texas evening & everything about their day was so gorgeous. I'm really growing to love shooting Southern weddings, they have such a different feel than California weddings; they just seem to know how to pull out all the stops. It's all about the littlest details, hundreds of guests and lots of big hugs and how y'all doing's. I hope you enjoy a little peek at their beautiful day. A special thanks to my favourite second shooter, Dallas-based photographer Heather Thorne, for all your help. Josh & Jaclyn, all the best as you start your Journey together.
