November 2011

Alyssa and Avery are always surrounded by fun, creativity, super tunes, fine baking, fine foods and of course tons of love. Alyssa’s sweet, playful and loves to groove to the beat. Avery is one chubby puppy dog–you just wanna snuggle up with him all day and night. Viv’s a triple threat: beauty, brains and fully embraces her inner artist! I’m also envious of her flawless skin:P Jensen’s a real dude. He works super hard but also knows how to fully let loose. Love their love:D

GQ GemEvery time we read The Paperbag Princess, Stellar is reminded of how not to marry “a bum.” She quickly figured out that the only way to prevent this from happening is to marry her little sister Gem. Yes, she’s a genius. So this pre-wedding session is fully inspired by her brilliant idea:) Needless to say, daddy Lon approves. Gem makes for a beautifully handsome groom and of course Stellar is a natural blushing bride. They’re looking forward to their honeymoon at the nearby public park. As their parents, we couldn’t be happier:D

Janey is nothing but a gorgeous bride…Norm cleaned up pretty well too:)Here come the kids…Yes, it’s Lego time at the wedding banquet!Getting our groove on with bubbles:DYoung ladies and gents busta move with the hip hop instructor.Music class in session.Mad scientist demonstrating a little magic:PMmmmm…and now for the epic finale.best.wedding.ever.WOW!!! What kind of people hire awesome entertainment for kids of ALL age groups and a photographer dedicated just for the kids?! Janey and Norm were beyond amazingly thoughtful for all the parents and kids who joined in celebrating their monumental day. Yes, it was monumental. I thoroughly enjoyed hanging out with the kids and capturing their incredible experience. When Janey first described the outline of the day, she mentioned the words ‘running/chasing after the kids’. Luckily, my legs were spared with minimal running. I did however experience some soreness due to bending down to their level–lol!

Needless to day, the kids and parents LOVED the overload of special programs that continued non-stop throughout the night. Stellar usually doesn’t move a leg, arm or eyebrow when other kids dance in public. I was completely shocked when she was moving and grooving along with the special musical entertainment. It was THAT good! It’s just too bad the kids will be expecting the same level of entertainment at their next wedding:P
