Christmas with the Coopers!

Christmas with my family was a bit quieter this year, but it was a fun time for all. I enjoyed sticking my camera's nose in my dogs' faces and got some nice family group shots too :]















First adventure of 2012!

Thomas and I started 2012 with a really fun drive up the Big Sur Coast, to stop at a hiking trail. I believe it is called the Salmon Creek Trail, and there is a lovely waterfall there also. After hiking, we drove back to investigate Ragged Point, went to the elephant seal viewing site, and called it a day. That's how you start off a year!


























Dry Ice Cream!

So since my friend Rachael and I are ice cream enthusiasts, when she found out how to make instant home made ice cream, we knew we had to try it! We just tried it the other night, and ended up ruining our ice cream :(. Since we followed this recipe: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XnORu5p9neY which doesn't specify how much dry ice to use, we used way too much, but we also had too much fun.






 

Dawnielle and Brendan ♥ Engagement

I can't believe I haven't posted any of these yet! This gorgeous couple gave me the honor of doing their engagement photos. I took these back in October 2011. It was such a fun day with this adorable couple! We had a blast running around town taking photos. They were so awesome and they made my job easy. Their love is so sweet, that they just showed it to me and I tried to capture it on film. I adore both of them and am really excited for their future endeavors! Some of my favorites...
