Los Angeles Senior Portraits: Sheri

My whole life I have wanted a sister. I grew up with an awesome brother, who made up dance routines to the sound track of Stand by Me and breakdanced to the Beastie Boys with me, but I still imagined my stuffed animals as sisters. My brother wouldn’t play dress up and have tea parties with…

    Once again with the focus, I love the shot of her eye lashes!

    Beautiful images Amber! I love the eye lashes shot too. How cool is it to finally get a sister? I know the feeling, I just got a younger brother when I married into Heather’s family.

Lock Me Up in a Castoro Cellar Please

Wine tasting has to be one of John and I’s favorite things to do! Rolling green hills filled with vineyards contrasted against blue skies is a breath taking view. Our days are always highlighted with delectable cheeses, dark chocolates and of course wine. California is known for it’s wine, especially it’s jammy Zinfandels and bold…

Big Happy Family: The Foss Reunion

I wish I had grandparents who lived only 20 minutes away. Mine live a 4 hour plane flight away in a small town in Illinois. It has been years since I have flown out there, that as I write this, I feel totally guilty that I haven’t taken the time to see them. I am…

Sweet Love: Mama & Papa Fox

For years and years, I prayed to marry into a strong Christian family. My prayers were answered when I married John. John’s parents are incredible. They sent five kids to college, gave years of service to education and coached nearly every kind of sport imaginable. They have truly sacrificed so much for their family and have…

    BEAUTIFUL images, but the story is even moreso!

  • Araceli RossAugust 30, 2010 - 9:21 pm

    I’m glad you waited on the Lord to bring you to your new family. They are cute! The first words my mother-in-law said to me when I met her was “welcome to our family”. Later, she told me she began praying for me when her son, my hubby, was only a few months old. Never underestimate the power of prayer, no matter how long it takes! 🙂 Thanks for sharing these pics with us.

The End is Near: Summer Vacation Comes to an End

This summer has been AWESOME! One of the best things about being a teacher is the ability to have the summers off. I get to travel, sleep in till 9 every day and do anything I want (or nothing on some days) for two whole months. It’s truly fantastic. But all good things must come to…

    I want to go back some days and be in your class again. I miss it! It got me through high school. Being in the darkroom made me want to go to school everyday. =( I wish I could be one of your students again.
