I love that this mother appreciates art (she is an artist herself) and wanted to make sure she got family photos this year.

I first met this mom during a photography class and we really hit it off. I love that she asked me to photograph her family for Fall Minis.

Fall Minis have been a hit and all the cute families keep arriving for photo sessions. It is a photographers dream to have the most perfect location and the most perfect people to photograph

Woohoo! Look at these two! Cam works with Travis and it was so awesome that they signed up for Fall Minis.

Wow! Emily is such an incredible and beautiful person. She has spent majority of her life in Japan (again one of the super cool things of being a dependent in the military is the travel/living opportunities).

How adorable is it that the pilots arrive with roses for their spouses? I LOVE this.

I spent the morning taking photos around Yamato with Lucas for his Senior portraits.  

These two were oh so cute in their traditional Japanese clothing. 七五三 ( Shichi-Go-San )(7-5-3) is a traditional event to celebrate the healthy growth of children at the age of 7, 5 and 3.

I met Amanda at photography school and have been blessed to be her best friend ever since. Learn more about her with these Q&As.

Such a fun and laid back Sunday family session. Carter kept all of us laughing with his energy and smiles.

Wishing a very, very, very Happy Birthday to the fabulous Douglas!  

I just love this family :) I photographed Sarah, Andy and Abby for Cherry Blossom season and was so excited when Sarah asked be to photograph Andy's homecoming.

Homecomings just make my heart melt. There is nothing quite like that anxiety, excitement, nervous feeling of waiting for your loved one to return home from sea.  

Are you looking for a Personal Trainer? Look no further, because Kasey is as AWESOME as it gets :)

Norman called me to see if I could take photos of him in his uniform with his mother on a clean white backdrop.  She was visiting Japan from New Jersey and really wanted to get some photos of them two together. 

I loved the family coordination of blues for this session and how the color just popped next to the bright yellow sunflowers.

Seriously?!? I have the best job (if that's even what you want to call it) in the world! I get to photograph so many amazing people. These two were just too cute and so in love

Ummm seriously - these two are just too cute for words! So I will let the photos do the talking!

I can’t get over how blessed I am to get to capture these Japanese memories.
