You guys know I’m a dog crazy woman, especially dogs that look like this! I mean, Max is pretty much a mini version of my Ruth. So when Casey and Neal came out of their apartment with this little man I about flipped. JUST LOOOOOOK AT HIMMMMM??!!?!

Between Casey’s gorgeous red hair and Neal’s magnetic brown eyes, I was in photographer heaven!

ARE YOU KIDDING ME WITH THIS?! No, no, not kidding.

I truly loved photographing and getting to know this brilliant and beautiful duo.

Interrupting your speedy scrolling for a quick glance of Max. You’re welcome. 😀

Attention! This is the last one of Max so stop and soak it up!

My jam is usually locations that are urban and colorful but I adored this session so much that ever since photographing them I’ve been loving shooting in the green!

Casey and Neal, I cannot wait to photograph your wedding!

High fives friends!

I’ve never been more swamped in my life than I am this very week; but it’s Halloweeeeeen! So Halloween we did.

Without further ado, I present to you our 80’s-inspired fright night. 😀

Josh, the Maverick

First up, Maverick from Top Gun. I’ll tell ya, Josh was born to wear this costume! Aaaaare you kidding me with his coolness?!

Two words: heart breaker! Fo’real. No really, those dark eyelashes combined with his sweetness; WHOA!

Clairi Lauper!

Have you EVER seen a cuter 80’s chick? Yeah, me neither… and I lived through them!

I love hanging out with Claire!  She is truly the epitome of “Girls Just Wanna Have Fun.” And those freckles?! Fuhgeddaboudit…

Andrew Moorecury

and last, but most certainly not least… Queen’s frontman… THEEEEE FREDDIE MERCURY!

Oh holy hell, where do I even begin with this one?! You should have seeeeen him out there in the garage while shooting these. We played Queen and, as you can clearly tell, this very tall young man turned into Freddie Mercury!

Moore 80’s Please

I have no words!

These kids truly were meant to be in my life. I still cannot believe the jackpot I hit when I married their dad.

We were going to do a quickie outdoor session but thennnn…. raaaaaainnnnn! So we adjusted fire and setup a make-shift studio in our garage. 🙂

FYI, these glasses were his actual prescription. Thanks Zenni! If you can’t see the writing on the arms it reads, “AndrewMoorecury”

Side note: when Andrew suggested this as his costume, I immediately thought of my friend Gordon Strain’s epic Freddie costume; huge shoutout to him for the inspiration!

Super dogs!

….and HOW could I leave out my love bugs?! Oh, that’s right, I can’t.  Baby Girl Ruuuuuth, MurphyMo and Freddie (guess who we named him after!)

Full disclosure: this image is 100000% Photoshopped together. 😉

Wednesday night’s little garage photoshoot is an experience with my family I will never forget. I loved watching these full-of-personality kids really ham it up and have fun with the silliness.

When we came into each other’s lives years ago one of my goals as their stepmom was to instill in them confidence with their uniqueness.  Watching them be so comfortable in front of my camera that night filled up my love tank in a very big way.  I so wish I had been this cool when I was their age! I’ll tell you, this family is destined for greatness.

Thanks for tuning in friends!

I first met my beloved friend Bora in November, 2014 at one of my photography workshops.  She told me back then that when she got married, I would most definitely be her wedding photographer someday!

When I saw her again in May of 2016 at my alumni workshop she said it again. Though by then she was feeling quite discouraged about her future love prospects. At that time, Tommy was a distant high school memory.

Side note: when we turned the corner to this wall blue-gray wall I couldn’t quit laughing about how much his shirt matched the wall. I immediately thought of a goofy subreddit I follow: r/accidentalcamouflage. I asked Tommy to stand in front of it and this is what he did instead!

You see, Bora and Tommy knew each other in high school but weren’t necessarily friends back then. Fast forward to 2018 where they were re-introduced. Tommy tells me that when they first went out just as friends soon after he had a strange sensation that he can’t explain but by date number three he was ready to marry her!

Bora was admittedly a bit apprehensive to such strong feelings so quickly. On their first date they watched Mission: Impossible III and according to Bora, “Tommy likes to joke and say that getting me was mission impossible that he made possible.”

I had read their love story on Facebook, which seemed like a whirlwind and almost too good to be true! That was until I met him. I’ll tell you, Tommy is one of the most kind, genuine, honest, and heartfelt men I had ever met. He adooooores Bora!

….and she adores him just as much in return! While the feelings may have come at different times, they’re 100% aligned now. I love to watch her blush while he fills up her love tank!

I mean… just look at her sparkle!

Bora and Tommy, I cannot WAIT to photograph your December wedding and feel insanely lucky to be a part of your lives.

I LOVE YOU TWO!!!!!

Much love friends!
