Keeping Your A.L.L. SAFE!

Keeping your A.L.L safe....your angel...your love...your life!

A girlfriend of mine passed this website on to me and I wanted to share. If you have little one's or know of someone that does, please pass this on....it may save a life! My heart goes out to this family....and I admire all they have done to raise seatbelt safetly awareness!

My A.L.L in their carseats......after watching that video they both might be in 5 point harnesses until they are 40!!! He doesn't look too happy about that......


But she thinks it might just be all right!

Birthday Girl ~ North Idaho Childrens Photographer

Remember Sweet Girl from my last post??? I thought you would....she is just TOO CUTE to forget! Last weekend was her 2nd birthday and her awesome mama asked me to come and celebrate Miss "S's" special day! And what a party it was! Check out this princess cake!!! Super cool!



And of course you just can not put THREE cakes in front of a two year old without her getting a quick taste! Or two.....


So yummy!


I know this is a little girl's birthday and PINK is THE color! But for some reason I just loved the black and whites for this party....these next two are my absolute favorites! Having a tasty nibble and looking at me like...what? It's my party!


The birthday girl was stylin with these adorable boots!! I just adore little girls and their boots....there's just somthing so sweet and sassy about them!


Wouldn't you just love to know what is going thru her head right here????


And of course ice cream after cake!


Miss "S" finding her baby picture on her Grandpa's key chain.....this little girl is LOVED!


A big girl at two....but some expressions she still has that sweet baby face.....


After cake and ice cream there were lots of presents to open! And what do all little girls love????


BABY DOLLS!!!! LOTS of Baby Doll's! It was so fun watching her light up as she unwrapped each one! She's all girl!




Happy Birthday Miss "S"!!!! I hope your birthday was wonderful!!! You are such a beautiful and spunky little girl!!! XOXOXO!


J & A....THANK YOU! so much for having me take your beautiful daughter's pictures! I had a great time and she is just the sweetest little angel!

The Ham ~ Sandpoint Childrens Photographer

Meet Mr. "C"......a.k.a.........The Ham.......I had a session with The Ham and his older and younger brother tonight and we had so much fun!!! It was an awesome session.....just one that made me giggle like crazy and my heart sing! And when I got home and looked at the pictures, I HAD to edit just one. This adorable little guy and I could be best friends.....he LOVED getting his picture taken....and he is so cute to boot! And his brothers are just as cute....but you will have to wait to see them......but for now......Look at those eyes! Love them! And the dimples? Sigh....all three have them....watch out girls!



So.....after the session and falling in love with all three of the boys.....I was thinking.....that The Ham is 5.....and Bella is 2.5.....hmmmm.....maybe in 20 years these two just might have to "meet"......hee hee

The Murphy's ~ North Idaho Wedding Photographer

Finally! Wedding pictures! I know some of you have been waiting patiently to see just a few.....and I have been waiting patiently to post just a few! Well....sort of. I am not completely done editing....but wanted to share some of my favorites that I have done so far. I just couldn't wait until I was completely finished. There will be more....and a slide show featured next month!

This wedding could not have been more perfect. The bride was gorgeous....AND relaxed! Which set the tone for the entire day....you are amazing! The groom was oh so handsome and completely laid back. The families were awesome and so ready to have fun......a special thanks to Wendy.......all your girls are gorgeous and without you none of these photos would be possible!!!! Thanks for trusting me and believing in me!!! The weather cooperated and it really could not have been nicer. My awesome friend Crystal came out to help coordinate group photos...thanks Crystal! And the photographer.....well.....she's one lucky girl!!! I could not have asked for a better "first" wedding. Thank you so much Mr & Mrs Murphy for having me take your photos!!! You two are AWESOME!!!!

So far it has taken me an hour to write this post.....I wanted to narrate it somehow....but it's just not working out how I want......everything I type just doesn't seem right. So.....after typing and retyping this, I think I am just going to let the pictures tell you this love story so I dont' mess it up!!!! So here we go.....

Once upon a time......




















































And they lived happily ever after.......


The END.

Breathe ~ North Idaho Wedding Photographer

I can now breathe....I photographed my first wedding on Saturday and it went great! Friday night I was a mess.....I couldn't breathe...my stomach hurt...I was shaky....just a mess! I was so nervous for this wedding...my first one!!! So many thoughts running thru my head.....checking and rechecking everything a hundred times and I really was just not feeling quite myself....so.....I decided to run off the nerves! After a half hour on the treadmill I felt a little better. Two pep talks from my good photog friends Crystal and Jackie and things were looking brighter. But I still needed something to calm me.....so I tried a rootbeer float....yum! Still not there. Then an ice cream sandwich......and voila! I was fine....and so ready to shoot this wedding! Goodbye nerves......we were never really friends anyways....and HELLO wedding!

It could not have been a more perfect day.....a more perfect setting....nor a more perfect bride, groom, friends, and families! I am just giddy over the entire event and am in the process of editing a few as fast as I can so the bride and groom have some for their reception this upcoming weekend. I WAS going to wait to post any....but she just takes my breath away....I couldn't wait.....they always say the bride is beautiful.....but my bride is BEAUTIFUL.....AND THEN SOME! Just a little eye candy to start off your week!



Kate and Eric......THANK YOU so much for trusting me to take your pictures! I can not wait to finish up your photos for the reception! You two are so sweet and I wish you a ton of happiness!!
