Chico, Ca. Wedding Photography- Beautiful Brides and Bridesmaids

Brides and Bridesmaids spend hours before the wedding planning their perfect hair style and finding the perfect lip gloss. When game day comes they are always ready to look their best. As a wedding photographer, my job is to photograph the girls getting ready in fun and creative ways. Here are a few fun getting ready photos. Then I have some of my favorite bridesmaids photos, these ladies were all ready for their close ups.

Julie and Jesse are having a Girl!- Chico, Ca. Maternity Photography

A few months ago I got an email from from Julie saying that they were expecting a little girl. I shot the wedding of Julie and Jesse in the Spring of 2009 and it felt so wonderful having them think of me to do their maternity photos. With plenty of notice in advance to plan, we came up with a few fun ideas for the shoot. I saw Jesse on TV after the Giants won the World Series, saying he had been a fan since he was a little kid, so what better than to wear their colors. Chico's Bidwell Park provided plenty of natural beauty for the photo shoot. Thanks Julie and Jesse - I can not wait to meet little Aubrey Madison!

Ashley and Andy Prego Session- Chico, Ca Maternity Photography

One of the most amazing parts about being a photographer is getting the chance to see a couple grow and build a family. Ashley and Andy have been with me since the beginning, I even shared my 25th birthday with them on their wedding day! Now I get to photograph the new addition to the family! Here are the belly photos taken a few weeks back on a beautiful weekend in Durham, Ca.
