Anderson Wedding Sneak Peek- Hemet Wedding Photographer

There's a reason not everyone is a wedding photographer. Wedding photography is tough. By the end of this day I felt like I had spent a full 24 hours at Disneyland with my two kids without a stroller (and no sunscreen). By that night I looked slightly lobster-ish.
It took me 2 days to recover. I didn't even LOOK at the pictures until then. But once I did I was totally stoked about the awesome images we got, and it totally made it all worth it.
Haley (sweet name, huh? though a big confusing at the wedding) was an amazing bride and rocked her mermaid gown. She and Ryan were awesome to work with. I LOVE being the person to capture the feeling between two people in love. It comes through in pictures and then it's not just a picture. It has FEELING.
Here's your sneak peek with many more to come.
Enjoy.

New Stuff- Hemet Family Photographer

It's been a while...I'll blame it on the Summer. We've been playing too hard and it's KINDA hard to get things done on the computer when you are contstantly in motion. Things are finally starting to wind down, thus the new post. I'm SO excited about some new sessions coming up and will hopefully have new stuff up way more often than I have.
Anyway, this awesome family was so fun to work with. The kids were serious troopers as we tromped through spikey, dusty fields and got prickles in our feet, flip-flops, and pants (and possibly underwear). I have to say that the most awesome shots are usually taken somewhere other than on soft, green grass. There's a bit of adventure to my sessions. Come bearing in mind you'll most likely leave a bit dirtier than you came. But it's all for the great shots, right?? Glad you see my vision. :) For your viewing pleasure:

Website

So, I had a secret website.
It was secret because I didn't really like it.
I didn't want anyone to see it. Unless it was really necessary.
I got a new website.
And I really like it.
And I want everyone to see it.
So here goes nothin'.

Voila!

Cousins!!

My kids are in front of the camera a lot. So I can't blame them when they start making faces like this to make things more interesting:

So when we have family in town I have a Hay-day (har, har) and take a gazillion pics of everyone else and then THEY get sick of me and my kids get a teensy bit of a break. (*epiphany- maybe that's why Carter loves having cousins over so much...hmmm...)

Can you believe all these adorable kids are my nieces and nephews (I can take credit for a couple of them, too). They had such an awesome time together and played all day, every day. Here are my favs from the bundle for your enjoyment:

For July

Refer someone who books any session with me and you get a $15 gift card.
Where to?
Wherever you want, my friends.
Just remember to have them tell me you referred them.
The end.

Meet Kevin- Hemet Senior Photographer

Kevin graduates this year.
I swear, wasn't I just 17?? Crazy how fast it goes by. I don't feel any older than this young-one but to him I'm "Mrs. Burk". Wierd.
Kevin is an aspiring artist and has kept my Carter busy during church many times by drawing sweet pictures of Darth Vader, Batman and Spiderman. It's awesome.
We had a lot of fun during this shoot,and since he's artistic I didn't feel like an absolute moron telling him we were going to take a school desk and put it in the middle of a wheat field and take pictures of him sitting on it. He actually liked the idea! Here's how they turned out. (tight pants and all. seriously, what's with this trend?? :)

The Staub's- Hemet Family Photographer

I loved photographing this family. Mostly because they are MY family (and because they are especially good-looking). This is my brother's family who we never get to see enough of (they live 1/2 way across the country in Texas) We had just enough time to get in some pics before it rained on us. Not like a ton of rain- just enough to get us all wet and have to run inside and then it stopped. But it couldn't stop us! We set up a makeshift photo studio with every lamp in their house and took a few more of the girls. Too fun!
