Engagement Signature Boards {Albuquerque Engagement Photographer}

The last couple of client meetings, I have been asked what a Engagement Signature Board is! So I thought I would show you all! There are so many choices, options, and ways to display/ decorate with them. All boards are 16x20, with an 8x10 (your choice of pose and color option)


Location Ideas? Some of my clientele choose to display them at both the Ceremony as well as the Reception. Some choose to soley do a board, while others choose to do a board as well as a book. All boards come on a easel, but are able to hang on your wall later on. This board is available with your Engagement Session.

2009 Albuquerque Balloon Fiesta! {New Mexico Photographer}

As many of my clients know, My family loves two things about New Mexico, the Weather and The Hot Air Balloons! This was our first time in the two years we have lived here that we got up and were able to see the Mass Accenstion... What a cool experience, I guess that is the Tourist in us all :) Hope you have a great week!

I included this one for fun.... I can't believe we in New Mexico just pull over to the side of the highway to watch the balloons!

Photography Decor...{Event Photographer}

When ever I photograph I loooovvveee to find something different to use. These two were my favorites from last nights event! Hope you like them as much as I do!

This cage was over a mirror.... I loved the effects!

Engagement Signature Board! {Albuquerque Wedding Photographer}

Until recently, I was under the impression that all couples knew what a Engagement Signature Board was! Then I began getting emails and questions from my couples, about the board. So I decided at this particular wedding to take a few shots of it just for my couples, who were unaware exactly what the board does!
A few of my couples choose to do different things with their board; they chose it be ready for the rehearsal dinner, as to only have their closest friends and family sign the board.
Most of my couples however, choose to take it to the Ceremony and then to the Reception as well! This gives the guest the opportunity to sign it as well.
Weather my couples choose to keep it close and intimate, or allow all their loved ones to sign it, I always have it ready for you a week prior to the Wedding!

The image is taken at the Engagement Session. Then you choose which 8x10 Image you would like in the center of your board!
A guest at the church signing the board. This couple choose to place the board next to the guest book! It worked out really well!

This couple choose to bring their board to the reception as well! Giving the guests who missed it at the church the opportunity to sign it!

Independence Day 2009 {Albuquerque Children Photographer}

My triplets, watching their brothers set off fireworks... I did not pose them, this is really how they were grasping one another scared, but asking the boys to do it again!

My daughter Trinity, at the Rio Rancho Annual 4th of July parade. I love how she was so excited waving her flag, like she is proud to be an American, and We are so blessed to be Free!

Texas Highlights...{ Texas Traveling Photographer}

One of the things we were able to do while in San Antonio was go on the River Walk Boat Tour at night... What an amazing experiance! We saw some beautiful art, lights and learned quite a bit of information I am sure we would not have known otherwise!

Can you go to Texas and not see The Alamo? If you look right behind it to the right that is the Davey Crockett hotel, he stayed in... Known as the Tower of the Americas...... I thought this was beautiful!

What an awesome way to see the city at night... I would have loved to go on these, but we didn't have time.

Flower Girl & Ring Barrer{Albuquerque & Santa Fa Wedding Photographer}

I try to create something special at each ceremony and at these two seperate weddings, I was able to get creative shots of both the flower girls dress, and then the ring barrers tex! I was thrilled with the outcome!

Loved Them Both So Much....{Traveling Photographer}

"Oldie but a Goodie" is what I have titled this one, We have all seen images of The Washington Monument, but they never get old! I love the flags around the bottom, those were not there, when we had gone in February!

This one was taken on the Night Tour... "Reflections"

Travel Shot Fun!

I couldn't help myself, I edited the fun shots first! These were taken in either DC or in Baltimore! Even in the rain, I really like how they turned out, and hopefully you do as well~

One More Week...

Next time this week I will be getting off a plane in Washington D.C. Part of me is so excited but the other part is kind-a sad, as I will miss my kiddos!

The following image was taken in February of 2006, at the grave site of John F. Kennedy.

Two Weeks Until Washington DC....

This was taken at Arlington National Cemetery, in February of 2006, so it was a tad cold, but I still think it's a beautiful picture! I can't wait to go back to Arlington and shoot there again.

Four Weeks And Counting...

Continuing my countdown until I head to Washington D.C. is a shot of my son Heath. It is near and dear to my heart for a couple of reasons. One, he's my 3rd son, my baby. Two, because this was not only my first awarded and published shot, but was also chosen for Kodak Picture of the Day for Memorial Day 2007! What an honor! Making it so special? Heath had just learned to read, so while he was reading the names on the wall, someone came and left flowers to their loved one... making the title to this image "Always Remember"

Five Week Countdown!

I have been hired to shoot in Washington DC the last part of April, so today begins my official countdown~ I am so excited, as you may or may not know.... This image was the jump start to my career therefore as you can imagine I am ecstatic to go back, and can't wait to see what I take this time around! Kevin will be joining me this trip, which is bittersweet, I am excited he gets to go, but I will miss my kiddos!

One of my favorite things to photograph since moving to New Mexico is the sky! The hot air balloons and mountains come right after though.... What beautiful scenery we have here!

And The Winner Is...{Albuquerque Childrens Photographer}

Last night at my church, Grace Outreach, for ladies night they did a Home Business Showcase~ What a great opportunity for what I like to call "Mommy Business" to show what we do. I think it's so important to support other mom's and what a great way to share with others your talents and abilities! To view all the Mommy Business I support please visit this link.
