Lauren . Expecting

I had a great time today with Lauren and Peter! She brought along her Charlie Brown Christmas tree as a prop and I had a little fun with it in the foreground. Thought I would share a little experiment. More of these to come soon!

The Vessey Family . Growing

Taya Faith Vessey could will be here anytime and there couldn't be a more appropriate middle name for this beautiful girl.  We have all been believing for here for a long time, and now that it is becoming a reality a whirlwind of emotions is hitting the Vessey family and all of those who care so deeply about them.  The Vesseys are beyond special to us.  We met them almost 3 years ago at church, and although the bond might have not been instant, our frriendship has grown to be one that will last forever.  That being said, Chad and I were honored and touched in such a special way when we were asked to be Taya's God Parents.  This is a first for me and I cannot wait to watch this girl, along with Kayden and the rest of the family grow up.

I could go on about these people forever!  I would encourage you to get to know them a little better by viewing this video explaining the life transforming encounter that Bret had with Christ...be warned, it might bring tears!  It has completely and totally transformed their family and I am beyond proud to have seen him grow over the past couple years.

I spent a bit of time with them hanging out and snapping some pics.  Check back often as I'm sure Taya's life will be well documented on this blog!

Bret, Heather, Kayden, Gavin, and Taya, the Cannons love you guys!  Thank you for being a part of our lives and bring on that beautiful baby girl!

Melinda . Before

So this post should probably have come before this one, but I guess that is just how I roll.  I was just going back through some of my library and found this short series of Melinda and Mike a month or so before they gave birth to the beautiful Melia.  These images were shot at the Estancia Hotel and Spa in La Jolla, CA.  We rented a room for the first part of the day and spent some capturing some photos that revealed a bit more skin.  They turned out amazing, but in an effort to keep those moments special, I will not be blogging them :). 

Shortly after we walked the grounds and just had some fun.  These photos speak a lot to me about the excitement that stews in parents-to-be...espeically the first born.  It is an absolute pleasure and honor to be let into moments like these in people's lives.  It is truly what motivates me to capture images that will keep these memories fresh and that will ultimately bring back the emotions of that moment in time.
