Serving North Bay Area Counties and Southern California
I am having too much fun watching the poll votes. Already 125 votes have been places in less than 12 hours. How cool is that? If the race keeps up at this close pace I am going to have to up the prize winnings. 
I am sure you won’t mind.
Mother’s Day is around the corner and Father’s Day is not that far off. I have a few more last min finishing touches to put together but I will be sharing the new spring special soon.
Stay tuned
These past couple of days the whole family (DH, 3 daughters and myself) have all been hit by some kind of stomach bug so I have been out of commission. This is the first time able to get on the computer so the Fabulous Faces contest will begin tomorrow. Sorry for the delay.
So that said if anyone would like to get in at the last min email me your photo today and i will add it to the list

Last night I sent this photo in to BluDomain to enter one of their contest and tonight I found out it won. I am in shock. I can’t believe it!
After I picked up my daughter from school we drove around town to to find the “letters” so spell F-I-N-L-E-Y (blu’s newest and fabulous site launch) Kayla had so much fun helping me find the letters. I almost didn’t even enter this pic because i didn’t think it was even close to being good enough. If it wasn’t for Kayla being so cute and excited about it I probably would not have sent it in. I can’t wait to tell her in the morning that our little adventure around town and her help that we won a prize.
The idea for this pic was inspired by a project I had in college which was to go look for letters in every day things. It was one of my most favorite and most memorable projects I have ever done. I got an A+ on it and my instructor even took my finished project to show his students in his other class at another art school. Pretty cool huh
I hadn’t shared my F-I-N-L-E-Y photo with anyone so when it was posted in the blog Wendy didn’t even know it was mine until I told her LOL Too bad everyone was sleeping in the house or I would have been jumping up and down and yelling with delight. Instead my fingers were tapping away at the keyboard in excitement as I tried not to wake the sleeping 2 yr old in my arms
I never expected to win and was just beyond excited to see my L-I-A-M entry make the favorites list Monday night. To actually win is extremely exciting. My friend Wendy and Maribel were anxiously waiting with me as I waiting for the winners to be posted. There are so many amazing photos entered and some incredibly talented people sending in their photos.
Anyway I just wanted to share in my excitement.
Now its 230am and I should get to bed. Nite Nite everyone!!
Do you think your child is fabulous? I know I do ;0)

Still to come are the wedding galleries and the boutique so check back soon.
Last weekend I had the most amazing engagement session down at the Marin Headlands. We took some shots up at the fort ruins and finished up at the beach. My friend Wendy took this shot while I was taking pics of the couple who were sitting at the other end of this makeshift seesaw. We were all laughing non stop. It was a great day!!!
