My girl ..

My little love bug .. She brightens my day! xo

Simone ... xo

A quick snap pic of my Simone .. She is getting so much bigger! I will have to shoot better pics this weekend.

Every morning she sits on this stack of towels and watches me as I get ready for work. Today as I cleaned out her little box, she patted my face so softly as if to say .. Thanks Mommy! I love her tons .. xo .. :)

Meet Simone!

A lot has happened since my last post in February.

1) I am separated from husband after 19 years.

2) I moved out and now living on my own ..

3) My sweet Diego had bad separation anxiety from his brother and had to go back there. ;(

I got a new kitten/love .. Simone!

She has been a blessing and is so super cute! It has been over 20 years since I had a cat .. I'm loving her dearly!

xo

Now .. to continue on with this crazy life .. :)

Sometimes it's time to just relax ...

Went to the German Shepherd rescue adoption event today .. Fun! Such beautiful dogs! German Shepherds always remind me of my Sheeba that I had many, many years ago.

Gloomy cold days make me tired .. Being around dogs today made me miss my Diego .. So what better way to spend a lazy cold Saturday .. Chilling with Diego and watching the Dog Whisperer!

Tsst! :)

... my new iPhone

Wow .. I'm now an official iPhone owner! Thanks to Apple and Verizon Wireless for finally coming together .. Finally! I had waited many years for this day to come! So worth staying up until midnight to order my new baby!

I have to say .. I'm so in LOVE with this phone! It's official name is .. "Hello Lover" .. named after my favorite saying from Sex and the City and the fact I can't stop touching it .. LOL .. :)

I can't believe I lived this long without this phone! How did I manage before?

Being a photographer my favorite app right now is the Hipstamatic. Fun app that takes cool, old school film type images!

Here are a few of my favorite images so far .. needless to say .. I'm having so much FUN and I love my new phone! :)

Sneak Peek: Moose! | oc pet lifestyle photography

Meet Moose and his family .. the cutest and coolest French Bull Dog in Newport Beach!  

We had a fun family session down in the allies of HB.  Moose is such a ham and just played it up for the camera.  He got so much attention from everyone around and even met another Frenchie just like him!

His parents are so cool and they are a gorgeous family!

Thanks Moose and family for a very fun session - can't wait to see you again really soon!

 Woof!

Sneak Peek: Wedding - oc lifestyle photography

Back in August I photographed the cutest backyard wedding .. it was just lovely how they decorated the yard all themselves with little white lights strung from tree to the patio cover and jars filled with candles hung from the patio cover.  They even built the deck themselves too, just for this occasion!

The bride and groom were not dressed typical .. kinda retro as well as the wedding party .. their kids!  The colors were a beautiful lavender accented with yellow.  They even had lavender Martinis!

Fun group of people and the craziest dancing I have seen in a long time!

The bride and groom were stunning together and you can tell they were just so much in love!

Here are a few of my favorites ...

Congrats you guys .. may you be blessed and in love for many years to come!  Thank you for allowing me to share your wonderful day!  :)
