I am afraid of sounding like a broken record talking about how much I adore all of my couples, but here I go again, because Natalie and Dirck are precious to me.  I have always loved how they break the mold.  They are this wonderful blend of seemingly opposite characteristics and tastes…their lives are a [...]

These two had their first date at one of my favorite spots around town- La Bodega- here’s a peek at their session…

We gathered saturday to wish our little Zach a happy  1st birthday.   He celebrated with cake in places I can not mention in public. Brotherly love.  Alex gives Zach a little good luck snuggle. There was a ring around the tub………of cake………..seriously. That is some serious fun people! Tyler
