Happy 6th birthday to my favorite pillow! Doobie will do anything for cuddles, fresh lettuce and dirty socks. I can’t imagine these last few years without him being by our side as our best friend, heater, vacuum & entertainment. Six years of waking up to his butt in my face and I wouldn’t change a thing. Happy birthday, Doobie! #DoobieTheDog #DoobieDooAndKittyToo #AdventuresOfDoobieAndKitty #DogMom #DogMomLife https://www.instagram.com/p/BxVpWCbAkLL/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=4clzripgwyxt

I love a family that is all smiles! Little Man Jayden was quite the model for me. Photos to come soon! The best part about this shoot was discovering the 5 different ways we know each other, from all the mutual friends and family members to realizing we used to be neighbors! By the time I left this shoot I felt like I was reunited with long lost family. #ILoveMyJob #Blessed #FamilyPhotography https://www.instagram.com/p/Bu5kctfg1B3/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1cbz4nb1vb3x2

Congrats, Mama Laurie! This woman is one of the strongest, hard working women I know. She reminds me of those stories where the mom is in labor, still attending her classes. Laurie doesn’t let anything get in the way and she does everything with an amazing sense of humor. Motherhood comes so naturally to her. She kept the sarcastic comments flowing, even while pushing, and as soon as he was out, kept the conversation going like she didn’t just push out a mini watermelon. Congrats to Laurie & Justin! Thank you for allowing me to capture baby’s first photos! #BirthPhotographer #BabysFirstSelfie #DuhItsWithAuntAnde #ButFirstLetMeTakeSelfie https://www.instagram.com/p/BumBVYGg97c/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1hgclv5211gm2

SFX Makeup! This was such a fun look to do! Glass stuck in the foot. I used 3rd Degree silicone to build the wound, Ben Nye thick blood and Makeup Forever Flash Palette for the bruising color. The “glass” is actually a crushed piece of CD cover. The part that’s inside the wound is the edge of the CD cover, which gave the plastic more stability in the wound. It also made it easier to pull the glass out and place it back in for multiple takes, if necessary. I worried about making the glass too much a part of the wound and it lifting the entire wound in one take, so utilizing that edge of the plastic really came in handy. This is actually my third time doing a wound, all practice being done that day. I’ve always done beauty and some bruising, but never SFX like this. I did a few cuts on myself throughout the day and studied how it would look if someone did step on a piece of glass a minute prior to pulling it out and prayed it would turn out okay. I think I’m pretty happy with this one.

I can’t believe Kitty actually wanted to get in the water. She was pretty pissed that she was wet after 😂, but they loved their day at the beach. #DogMomLife #KittyTheDog #IttyBittyKittyCommittee #KittyKittyBomBom @doobieandkitty (at Pismo Beach, California) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bs4rJTGgSPL/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=er070jwj3jvh

Behind the scenes with @goddess_jesska after I’d done her makeup for our shoot with @toddpowersphotos. It’s difficult to pick up in some of the photos, but I actually used black glitter in her brows.
