This couple is a prime example of why I adore my job. I’ve worked with a few brides through the years that I could swear missed their calling as comedians. Jodie’s one of them. Don’t let her “all american” gorgeousness fool you…she had us cracking up with dirty jokes throughout her bridal session! ( I would share a few, but I like to keep things PG around here ;) What a combo…funny AND stunningly beautiful!! Its no wonder she ended up with such a great guy. I got the sweetest email from Steve when they returned from their honeymoon in Punta Cana….. I know these two will be one of my “lifers”…..I can’t wait to photograph their little ones someday!

Here are some of my favorite moments from their day. I love the way their necks form a heart shape in the first image :)

Leah caught this sweet moment right before the kiss…

Another Leah shot:

So proud of Leah for nailing this shot of their last dance. Who has the best assistant? I do! I do! :) Well done, Leah!

Congrats guys!! We’re so, so happy for you!!

Remember the super hot Kilbi & Sean ( how could you forget, right? ) Well, this is Sean’s beautiful little girl, Chloe. I was so thrilled to have her in for her own session last week. After seeing the lovely shots my friend Charo took of her, I couldn’t wait to photograph her. I was bummed when it decided to MONSOON 10 minutes into the outdoor half of our session ( yes, we got SOAKED….no, we did not have an umbrella!), but the thing I realized after having Chloe in front of my lens for a mere 10 minutes is…this kiddo is so happy & full of life I could photograph her in front of a trash can & she would make the image shine. She has one of those spirits that comes alive through the lens. I was blown away….and lets just say having her in the studio did NOT help the whole “I don’t need a little girl” argument. After hanging out with her…I’ve decided I need 2! ;) ( wow, I hope my hubby isn’t reading this…!)

Anywhoo….there are a few things I know for sure after seeing these 3 together……

1. Kilbi is going to be an incredible step-mom.
2. Sean is the most fashionable/doting dad on the planet ( seriously, he has the most darling outfits for Chloe!)
3. little miss Chloe has THE best pouty face I’ve EVER seen ( and I’ve seen a lot, folks.. :)

Hope these brighten your Monday evening…..enjoy!

Don’t ever underestimate the power of a good pouty-face ;)

She makes a cute Bo-peep, don’t ya think?

The best part of random 30 minute downpours is…..PUDDLES!! :)

One of my favorite KKP kids, Miss Marissa turned 2 recently & I bought her a cupcake to celebrate. She REALLY liked it. ( I’m still cleaning pink icing off the studio walls! ;) Happy Birthday sweet Rissa!
