Our Everyday - 52 week Project
This year I have dedicated myself to taking more photos of my family during our everyday activities using Clickin' Mom's 52 week Project. I'm hoping I can stay committed and do this every week. I'm a little behind on posting, but here are my first two weeks (and I think I'm actually a week off since the first week was supposed to be ending January 1st...mine ends January 8th...oops! Guess I'll just have to catch up and do two photos this week.)
Week 1 - "Happy"
My son playing in the shed while I was trying to get some good photos of him for the Valentine's Day special. He would much rather play peek-a-boo!
Week 2 - "Dry"
My son cleaning up his spilled juice on the counter after bath time - he really needed another bath after this!
Upcoming theme - Create. Followed by Eat (What I ate).
If you would like to join in with your own 52 week project, feel free to leave a link to your blog in my comments. I would love to see what others are doing!

Expecting {More} Love - Emily's Maternity Session{Lemoore, CA Pregnancy & Newborn Photographer}
Here are more photos from Emily's maternity session. I love so many of her imges & wish she would let me share them all online, but you'll have to ask her to show you the other photos. The ones she won't let me post are most definitely my favorite. =)
Emily & Stephan - thank you for allowing me to document this wonderful & exciting time in your lives. Your daughter is going to be so loved - she is already surrounded by the love you two have for each other and will feel that when she makes her appearance next month. I am so happy for you both and cannot wait to meet little Avery. I hope you love these photos as much as I do.

I'm also entering the silhouette above in the Rock The Shot Forum's contest. This is one of my firsts silhouettes ever - and I love it! I hope you do too. Go ahead and look at all the other images from the August photo challenge from Rock The Shot. There are some amazing entries!

Expecting {More} Love - Emily's Maternity Session Sneak Peek {Lemoore, CA Pregnancy & Newborn Photographer}
Here are a couple sneek peaks from Emily's maternity session on Friday & Saturday last week. I had so much fun trying new techniques & posing with her. She is so beautiful & was a natural in front of the camera. Also, these images are nearly straight out of camera - the only thing I did for processing was bump up the contrast slightly. Amazing! I love when I don't have to do much to an image to get to my vision. I will defnitely be posting more of this session later as I LOVE so many of the images!

Beaultiful Rochelle {Beauty Session| Lemoore, CA Photographer}
Life has been crazy busy lately between working 40 hours a week at my other job, baby showers, housework, and of course spending time with my men I haven't had much time for editing. But, because my husband has been gone for the past week and my mom took some time to spend with Joseph I got a lot done this weekend. I finished editing Ashley & Ryan's wedding and sent all their images to them. I also finished a maternity session and shot & edited another Beauty Session. Thank you all for your patience! The week before my husband left I wanted to spend as much time as possible with him and because I was working full-time at my other job, that meant no editing time. Now, I am all caught up on editing and ready for the next item on my to do list...which is a very LONG list! =)
Now that I am all caught up I want to share with you some photos from my friend Rochelle's Beauty Session. Rochelle is a beautiful woman, a great mother & wife. Not to mention, she's a great hair stylist! (If you're in Visalia and looking for someone, I highly recommend her - she works at Tiffany's Salon & Spa). If you book a beauty session with me that includes hair styling, Rochelle is the one that will be helping you out. Yay!! I am so excited about her being my partner in the Beauty Campaign sessions because she really has a passion for wanting to help women feel beautiful in their own skin, and she is fantastic at it!
Without further ado....
As part of the process of a beauty session, each woman must ask someone close to her to complete a brief, but highly meaningful assignment. Part of that assignment is for them to tell the woman why they think she is beautiful.
Here are some of the things Rochelle's Mother-in-law and husband said about her:
Mother In Law:
Describe your feelings, and what stood out to you when you first met Rochelle.
[I noticed] a joy when you look at her and felt it come from her.
What characteristics does she have that you admire?
She has an assertiveness to sensitivity to others.
What is your best memory of you two together?
She colored my hair even before she went to beauty school and she was so nervous. I enjoyed the girl play time.
In your eyes, why is Rochelle beautiful?
Rochelle is beautiful because of how gracious she is, especially with her daughter.
Husband:
Describe your feelings, and what stood out to you when you first met Rochelle.
(I'm paraphrasing here...) I knew I had to meet her because she was so beautiful.
What characteristics does she have that you admire?
She is a great parent, a hard worker (at home & work). She is patient with both our daughter and me. She takes good care of our family, her family, and my family. She takes care of others when they need help with anything.
What is the best memory of you two together?
The trip to the coast camping with our family and our trip alone to Santa Cruz for Father's Day.
In your eyes, why is Rochelle beautiful?
She has a beautiful face, a really sexy body and an ass that drives you nuts! She has the biggest heart in the whole world!
Why Rochelle knows she is beautiful
I am beautiful because....
I am kind to others
I have a good sense of style
I always try to have great hair.
I am a great wife to my husband.
I am a great Mommy to my daughter.
This is My Beauty Campaign! I AM BEAUTIFUL!
Rochelle, you ARE beautiful! Thank you for everything! I can't wait to work with you and all the women who join this campaign.
Here is her slide show of images as well.

Rebecca - Expecting Love {Maternity/My Beauty Campaign}
Here are a few photos from my dear friend Becky's maternity session a couple weeks ago. I've been meaning to blog these for awhile. Becky said the following about her My Beauty Campaign + Maternity session before even seeing her photos:
"It [The session] was amazing. At first I didn't know how I would get the homework done for it just because my time has been jam packed lately. But I was so glad I did. After reading what Meghann and John had to say about me I felt like a million bucks. I had a hard time getting together an outfit for the shoot, but was very happy with the way it turned out.
I had such a blast doing the photos. I have to admit I was a little nervous at first. I just have a hard time being the main focus. But even with the cars driving by I had so much fun. It will definitely be something I'll remember forever. And you were amazing. You made me feel very comfortable in front of the camera. And it was also just nice to see you. Even if just for a bit. Thank you for the experience. It truly made me feel gorgeous and very proud to be sporting my baby bump. John and I even went out to dinner afterwards just because I didn't want to go home once we were all dressed up. So we had a great day!
Thank you again for driving all that way and taking the time out of your day to do that. I can't wait for you to get some photos of Micah now :0) "
Isn't she beautiful! Thank you so much for the experience Becky! I had a blast, and you truly are beautiful!
