Beautiful baby C

I loved this little chica. She sure was fun to photograph!

California Dreaming

There has been a lot of chaos and sadness in my life the past few months, so I decided I needed a break from it all and I am relaxing in California with the family. Today, we went to Cayucos - a favorite location here on the central coast, and Harmony - a tiny community of only 18 citizens. I took lots of pictures and will share a few of my favorites as I get them edited.

Aleida's 80th Celebration!

                            

A friend of mine that I work with was celebrating her grandmother's 80th birthday! What a wonderful opportunity to eat cake, dance, let the kids bounce, eat good food, and get the family and friends together.

Here are a few of my favorites from this session.

It's a hot one!

As some of you know, I am a teacher by profession and this little photography thing is mainly for fun and, of course, some extra income. I just wanted to share a set of pictures that I took at the school water party the day before school got out. If you would like to see more, (I took about 200)  you can visit my classroom blog at Dixie Suns Shine. I love the ease with which children photograph, especially when they are at play. I also love the magic that water adds to a photograph. Splashing water is amazing! I love it.

Red Cliffs Desert Reserve, Harrisburg, Utah

Red Cliffs is one of my favorite spots in the area. I think you will know why once you look at the pictures!
