The Dodges

We’ve had such a great time capturing the growth of the Dodge family. On this shoot we got a double dose of Dodge! : )

Tommy Dodge and family and his brother Kyle Dodge and family. Such sweet couples with beautiful baby boys. Always a pleasure.

iPhone Friday // BIG NEWS

So I know the blog posts have been sporadic at best, but it’s not that we haven’t had anything to blog, rather, we have had too many things to blog!
I want to announce 2 MAJOR changes to our lives.
Back in April we had a miscarriage. We were heart broken but trusted that God had a sovereign plan through it all. Here 5 months later we are so happy to say that

WE ARE PREGNANT…again.

The current due date is April 30, 2012.
Thank you so much for your prayers and support! We can’t wait for life with our third little crazy! : )

Item number 2 on the announcement list is also LIFE CHANGING!
Although there’s a long back story to how this all came about, I won’t write a book on this post with all of that. I’ll just say…

WE ARE MOVING TO WASHINGTON!

We’re a couple of Southern Californians born and raised so it’s a bit scary and new and outrageous thinking about moving our family, business, and LIVES so far away. But we are BLOWN AWAY by how the Lord has orchestrated everything.
We can’t wait to serve in leading worship for the youth at Overlake Christian Church in Redmond.
We’re eager to start the adventure of a new state and all the beautiful places to fine tune our photography. (All you Washington brides and grooms, get ready!)

I said I wouldn’t write a book, so feel free to ask us any questions you have and we’ll keep everyone updated on the progress of the move. Here’s a couple of photos from my phone from our trip this past week.

Lake Washington

Snoqualmie Falls

And 1 more thing…
I came across this cool site that allows me to stay connected to friends and family…it’s called Facebook! Apparently it’s a big enough deal that they made a movie about it!

I decided now is as good a time as any to join the rest of the world.
Come and be my friend. : )

Guest Sign In Engagement Album. Madera Books.

I know it’s been a bit more hit and miss on the blog lately, but bare with me. There are some life changing things hitting our lives! Exciting, scary, and crazy all in one! I’ll share more on those things in the coming weeks and months so follow along.

For today I just wanted to share some images of a recent engagement album we had made for Erin and Joe. You may remember their engagement shoot in a cozy hideaway in Lake Arrowhead, Ca. After seeing the photos the couple decided to do one of my favorite things, get a guest sign in album made!

We did this at our wedding 5+ years ago and recommend it to every couple we meet with. It’s such a great way to use the photos from your engagement shoot, PLUS it gives all your guest a fun album to flip through and a chance to write a little yearbook-esc note.

i.e. “Have a KILLER summer. K.I.T.” -Uncle Bob

Kidding of course, but it really is a fun keep sake to look back on and enjoy.
As always, I design all the albums myself and have them put together but the stellar Madera Books! Beautifully constructed and jaw-dropper to look through, you’ll LOVE them!

If you are a bride, ask us about getting one and if you’re a photographer go to Madera’s site and get connected!

Hope you all enjoy some of the photos of the album.

iPhone Friday

I know it’s been awhile since I posted an iPhone Friday, but things have been busy this summer. Last week we were at a beach house in Newport with some family. Micaiah and Layla became little sand crabs!

Here’s a few shots from the phone of last week as well as a couple from our trip to Disneyland a couple days ago. Have a great weekend!
