When Lauren and I shoot weddings, we're always looking for those little and even not so little details that the Bride may add to her Wedding to make it her own. From the Brides bouquet, to the intricacies of her dress, we love detail shots and we're ALWAYS looking for them =)
In the same way, there are so many little "detail" type things that a new born does that maybe as parents, perhaps don't even notice. But sometimes, it's in those little things that bring out the best and warmest memories.
Its amazing to think that at one point in our life our hands couldn't even wrap around our parents' finger...or
how our feet were so small and (for some of us at least), were soooo cute! haha.
Meet Jerrilyn+Kevin and baby Gavin! =)
This was my favorite shot of the day. We love shooting late afternoon, when we could use the sun to our advantage and where the shadows are at it's longest.
Even though baby Gavin cried for most of the day (maybe he doesn't like Harley's Kevin..haha), when he let up, we took advantage =)
Not sure what got over me to ask for this shot but whatever it was, I'm happy I did! This was a close second to my favorite shot =)
To Jerrilyn+Kevin and baby Gavin, thank you so much for asking us to capture this moment in your family's life for you...it was an honor and we loved shooting them for you both.
Your friends,
John & Lauren

(09.03.08)Hey Guys!!!
The shoot was really fun, but really weird to be on the other side of the camera, by myself at that! But I'm so glad he forced me to do it.
I've been wanting to use my umbrella for a shoot for so long! I've had it almost a year and so glad we did.
And I so didn't know orange was my color! heh. I think preggo shoots are Jp's thing so call or email us if you are interested in a shoot so we can pencil it in! It was so fun... maybe cause it was my husband. :)
(09.03.08)These pictures are beautiful John- great job!
I can't give you all the credit though...after all, you did have a stunning model. ;)
(09.12.08)
Hi guys!! These sneak peaks are AMAZING! I can't wait to see the rest. Thank you again for all your you've done. And dealing with me - and my emotional state. You can't tell I lost it. haha. our little secret. No really, thanks again and we can't wait to see the rest.
Linda & Dennis
Val wore this beautiful vintage looking dress with so much detail...I had to capture it.
Being that we weren't so pressed on time like we would a normal Wedding day, we decided to come decked out ourselves and bring our lighting gear. My hope for the shoot was to walk away with a shot...or two that looks like something that would be in a Wedding magazine. Do you think we got it?!
Being super exhausted from the day's activities I wasn't planning on editing right away but seriously, I couldn't resist! After seeing how a few of them turned out I ended staying up till 2am editing everything!! I can't tell you how excited I was with how everything turned out but seriously, how do you not get a good shot with these guys?!
Finally, I decided to put together a really quick slideshow of our day. So enjoy!
Val+Jason...thanks so much for being the cool cats that you are! We hope you like your images as much as we do! =) Oh and Jason...did I tell you that I'm interested in buying your bike?! =) haha
