Kind. Wonderful. Salt of the Earth. Generous. Amazing... These are only a few words to describe Marsha & Wyman and the whole Shanks family. I’ve had the pleasure of knowing Marsha and Wyman and the Shanks family for about 12 years. Marsha and Wyman are some of the nicest, most genuine, compassionate and all around wicked awesome people you will ever have the chance to know and the same goes for their entire family. I really can’t say enough amazing things about them, it really is an honor to call the whole family, friends. As with most families, some have moved… Michelle, Mark and their 3 boys (who are such a crack up!!) moved out to Kentucky, Scott & Alisa are out in beautiful Colorado raising their son, and Amy, Carl and their 2 boys are close by (and who’s family I did a year or two ago). But they were all out here for Christmas and wanted to do a family shoot... hmm, people that we love and pictures – okay, if I have to :D



Here's the cover of "Beautiful Families"...








I love the look on Amy's face on this one!












I had to include this one of the boys, seriously, you guys crack me up!


A huge thank you to Marsha and Wyman for being so amazing and raising such wonderful children! You are both a wonderful role models for our family and thank you for all the love and support you have shown us in the past 12 years! To the whole Shanks Family, it was wonderful to see you all again, you are all absolutely awesome! Aloha!

I know it's been a while since I've done a post, but I've been working like crazy (and trying to make my daughter smile, more pictures from that soon!).

This last Sunday, I had the distinct pleasure of doing a multiple family shoot down in Mission Viejo, and it was so much fun!! I had my amazing wife, amazing daughter and my amazing college roommate helping me (a lot of amazing on this day). The pictures are being presented in slideshow form since there are so many wonderful pictures!

First up were Jad and Michelle with their son Jacob and golden retrievers Cooper and Dusty. Jacob was so adorable, and of course his parents and furry friends were too, but that sounds a little odd to say don't you think, adorable parents? Jacob had an awesome Halloween costume, complete with matching shoes, so cute! It was such a beautiful day, slightly overcast, green grass, beautiful people, all great recipe's for amazing pictures! Without further ado...



Next were Paul and Ashley with their son Zach and furry friend Evie. Ashely was our friend in college and roommates with Jess for 2 years. As you can see, they love our school just as much as we do! And, Zach is going to be a big brother soon too! We love these guys and are honored to have them as friends!



And finally, Bret and Paige, with their son and daughter Keaton and Emerson. These are friends of the Powell's and were so funny! Keaton was an active little man, and it was a blast trying to capture a family shot with all of them! Emerson was so adorable too, doing the army crawl and just grinning the whole time!



A big thank you to all the families who came out, it was truly an honor to capture you all together and just see the love the exuding from all of you!
