To read more about his inspired project created by Nichole Van, read our first month’s post.

This month I was inspired to create something with freedom and vintage in mind with a high fashion vibe.   The field behind our house is blanketed with green and dotted with yellow flowers.  Too soon the green hills will turn to gold as California is so well known for.  I wanted to take advantage of the lushness  before it changed.   Here is what I ended up with for April.

And I’m breaking one of my rules this month and posting more than one image because I had a hard time deciding which I wanted to use.  Here are the runners up.

Please make the rounds this month and be inspired by the beauty and the talent of the girls in this group starting with Martha Schuster | i see the moon photography | Long Beach, CA.

I’ve known Maren since she was a little girl.  I’m just astounded by how quickly time goes by when I realize she is now preparing to head off to Brigham Young University in a few short months.  But I’m so thrilled  and can’t wait to see what the future holds for this amazing girl.  Thank you, Maren and Leslie, for spending the afternoon with me so we could capture this pivotal moment in your life.  I thoroughly enjoyed it!

And thank you to my amazing hair and make-up artist, Lauren McCullough, for your talent.

Meet Mason, 7 days old with the most beautiful lips.  He was a champ and slept almost the entire time.  He even slept long enough to get some pictures with his adorable big sister, who has really grown up since her own baby session.
