Happy 5th Birthday Brielle!

Adorable and charming Brielle turned five and I was so fortunate to be able to be a part of such a big number in her life. Brielle was such a pleasure to be around and her maturity at this age was remarkable. Her party was one of the coolest parties I've ever seen with fresh made tacos and snow cones, face painting, a bounce house with a slide, and of course the lovely ladies of Frozen, Elsa and Anna. I have never seen so many well behaved children in the same space. It was such an adventure, an experience, and a mutually exciting party for both the adults and their awesome children. I absolutely had a blast and am so grateful to be a part of this special day for Brielle. Happy Birthday Girl!

Jenn, Ryan and Lucy!

Jenn, Ryan and their incredibly charismatic pup Lucy are the trio of a century! This family was so fun to hike with through Peter's Canyon. Their love for Lucy and each other is immeasurable. I had the pleasure almost a year ago to photograph this awesome couple's wedding in Missoula, Montana and to experience their lovely family now is simply a blessing. Their light-hearted, fun and loving attitudes are those that we can all take a lesson from. Thanks for letting me be a part of showing everyone what a family is all about, even if it is just mom, dad and pup! 

Rick & Lidia's Stunning Wedding!

On Friday, March 28th, I had the absolutely lovely pleasure of attending, enjoying, and photographing Rick and Lidia's wedding.

Lidia and Rick are Engaged!

I had so much fun with these two lovely and lighthearted soul mates this week. We had a wonderful day with impeccable weather and unimaginable views of the exquisite mother earth in San Marino, CA at the Huntington Library Botanic Gardens. For my first time here I was absolutely stunned that for my entire twenty-five years living in southern California I had never even heard of this quintessential place of relaxation and romance. Lidia and Rick not only shared my love of this location, but also an abundance of memories tied to it. When they started dating they would find oasis in these gardens, having picnics, lounging about, and falling in love with the gorgeous scenery, the moment, and each other over and over again. I had such an amazing time tracing the steps of their delightfully special story within these gardens and their memories. Their love is so true, so simple, and so beautiful, I am honored to be able to share this exciting moment in their lives with them. Congratulations Lidia and Rick!! You guys really found something remarkable.

I hope you loved these photos as much as I did. Please leave a comment, share them on facebook or on pinterest! Thanks so much for supporting atomic moose photography and have a fantastic day! :D
