Yesterday we celebrated the “unbirthday” of little Presley for her annual birthday photo shoot. Although her real birthday isn’t until October, an early tea party was in order so we could get some photos for her party invitations. If you haven’t caught on yet, the theme of Presley’s party is Alice in Wonderland, and I...

Conley is three!!
Nearly three years ago I took newborn photos for this little guy and now he is turning three! When I first saw him in his little fedora I told his mom, “we have to take his photos in that hat!” So we did and then some…. and I have to say he is almost too...
Willow Ranch Calendar Girls
Willow Ranch Restaurant out in Buttonwillow not only has great food, but also happens to have a lot of beautiful girls working there. I was asked to photograph a calendar for them featuring their staff and the restaurant with a vintage twist. It was so much fun! Spending the day at the restaurant with a...
“Intern Sara”
How long does it take to make a friend? Well, in the case of Miss Sara Dawn from South Dakota… it was nearly instantly. She has spent the last three weeks with me as an intern for The Shutter Clique and I am sure everyone else who got a chance to meet her also instantly...

Kim’s Marylin Monroe Inspired Portrait Session
I know it seems so silly, but I am as they are being labeled a “Gleek.” My boyfriend, a musician, thinks it absolutely absurd how I run to the couch every Tuesday night once I hear the American Idol credits, super excited for this weeks episode of Glee. It is one of the few shows...

Allie – Retro Beauty Session
As usual I am super excited to share these photos. I know, I am always excited, but this was probably one of my hardest blogs yet to compose. Allie’s beauty session had so many perfect shots it was impossible for me to narrow them down for the blog. If I didn’t know Allie personally I...
The Prestige – Aaron and Kassee
At the bridal show back in January I decided to try something new. It’s customary to raffle off an engagement session. However, I was really loving the Fairytale Portraits I had been creating and I decided to give one of those away instead. Well, as luck would have it, the winners were totally adorable and...
Henrietta the Bulldog
While seeing the sights of Boston I also happened to see this cute little bulldog. Her name is Henrietta and she was waiting outside a store for her owner Margaret to finish shopping. I am usually a sucker for a cute dog, even more so a cute bulldog. (Fresno State – Go Bulldogs!) Yet, on...
