Baby Stella is here! Oh my gosh isn't she the cutest thing? THOSE CHEEKS.  She did so great during her session! We dressed her up like a little Stellaritto, did some portraits in her gorgeous nursery and captured some family heriloom shots as well. One of which was Rachel's wedding veil! Time will tell if she will have Mama's beautiful red hair, but we think it is already looking like it may be! 
Congratulations to Andrew & Rachel on this precious doll.

I'm excited to share some more images from Part 2 of my "Sweet November" styled shoot. This half we shot a gorgeous Champagne and Blush bridal gown by Rachelle Appelle. It looks amazing on Melanie's skin tone & goes so well at the Vineyard. Mike & Melanie are so sweet together. The sun set pretty fast and it quickly became an overcast evening. I do love the soft light the clouds give off. Im so thankful for my team who all trusted and supported me on this shoot. Y'all rock! I cant wait for all the fun 2020 has in store!

When November rolled around I knew I wanted to do a gorgeous fall vineyard shoot. It had been on my radar for quite some time. I was inspired by the warm tones of fall, Topaz/Citrine, Chrysanthemums and of course I wanted Terra-cotta to be part of the tablescape.  My floral dreams came true also with this to die for floral hat!  I was set on a bridal pant suit for Jen & paired it with this rust suit for Kara as I wanted to keep her a bit on the feminine side as well.  
We had such a fun a great time with Jen & Kara at the Vineyard.  The Hospitality was wonderful too.  I CAN'T WAIT TO GO BACK IN THE SPRING!

I could just stare at Rachels gorgeous Maternity shots.
The combination of her Red hair & her Emerald dress are just too good!
We had a great time getting creative together & loved taking the image on the Mural that says 
"I love you to the Moon & back."
 I cannot wait to meet little Stella! She should be making her debut very soon.
Maybe an extra Christmas gift will be blessing the Hernandez family!?
Stella sure is loved by so many already. She has quite the fan base!
Everyone is waiting to see if she'll have those same amazing Red locks her mama has.

I love it as a Photographer when you load images up to edit and you can instantly return back to a time that was so JOYFUL.  It is such an honor to be able to capture these precious moments for my families. These photos just put a smile on my face!
The energy was so positive & sweet. Can't you feel it too?
I try to shoot how the session FEELS rather than what it LOOKS like & I think this session is a prime example of that. 😊✨💛​
