Wardrobe Wednesday

Happy Wardrobe Wednesady everybody!  This week we are totally blues & greens.  Two things that I love about this look are 1) boat shoes!  Obviously, I just think they are great casual but put together look.  2)  The dress for Mom, the royal blue would be flattering on nearly every skin tone and the style is forgiving and form fitting all at once!

Thanks to I Adore Your Style for this weeks outfit inspiration.

You can find these looks and more at Old Navy and Shop Ruche.

Don't forgot to visit my site before Father's Day on 6/15 to receive a FREE desktop photo frame with ever package purchase!

Do you have a pro photo session coming up?  Be it head shots or family what have you.  This look is deliciously Spring.  Maybe you don't have a photo session in the near future but are just looking for a fresh new Spring look!  As many of you know, pink is my #1, it doesn't even matter the shade I JUST LOVE it!!  So this look to me, is perfectly feminine & Spring.  The shoes add such a great accent splash of color to tie it all together.  

Are you yourself a pink hater or a pink lover?  Would this look work for you, why or why not?

Head over to ShopRouche to get this look & so much more.  If you are looking for beautiful Spring photos jump over to my site, NOW! Just kidding...kinda :)

Loving these Spring looks for family.  Casual yet coordinated, which is my favorite kind of style!  I can't say it enough but patterns are NOT your enemy when it comes to photos, that is unless they are everywhere!  Mixing some solids in with a few patterns within a coordinating color scheme really brings a look to life!  These looks at more an be found at Old Navy & Shop Rouche.  Thanks to I Adore Your Style for this latest style inspiration!

Two Great Causes

Raffle ticket, anyone?

This past weekend I had the true honor & pleasure of photographing and attending two wonderful events.  The first was The Main Event, Samaritan House's annual gala benefit.  This was my second year volunteering with Samaritan House, an amazing organization that supports San Mateo County, and photographing The Main Event.  Each year it gets better and better and it was a beautiful night of great people giving to a wonderful cause.  To top it off it was their 40th Anniversary!

Following this great event, was yet another great event down in Los Gatos where I had the privilege of photographing an event with Khen Rinpoche, Founder of the Siddartha School.  He travels the world teaching and sharing his wisdom with the world.  He gave a talk on attachment, shared his humor with us and guided a beautiful meditation.  Here are some shots from this once in a lifetime event.

I have a little boy shoot coming up this weekend, so I thought this was the perfect subject for this week's Wardrobe Wednesday!

How to dress your young boy for a photo session?  Hats are always a fun edition to a shoot.  Guaranteed they will not be on their heads the WHOLE time but they do work as a fun prop, whether they are being thrown in the air or used for hide & seek!  The color scheme for this outfit is also just so fun & bright for the amazing summer like weather we are having right now!

Thanks to I Adore Your Style for the inspiration & all parts of this adorable outfit can be found at Old Navy.

Save The Date

Hello!Lucky custom Save the Date card

This whole wedding thing is starting to feel quite real!  And I am getting excited!  Save The Date cards started going out last week and we have been getting such positive feedback from our friends & family.  Many of whom said this was by far the best Save the Date they have ever seen! It wouldn't have been possible without the wonderful work of Hello!Lucky Stationary.  Eunice & Sabrina have been an absolute blast to work with and I can't wait to start designing our invitations with them!

little details

My favorite detail from the Save The Dates was our personalized stamp from Zazzle and photo by the amazingly talented & fun Mark Davidson!

This palette of peachy pinks & bluesy blues gives just enough contrast while still complementing one another quite nicely creating a lovely look for family photos.

This week's great looks for your next family photo shoot come from Banana Republic (currently offering 40% off their great looks until April 21st!) & the Gap.
