Meredith & Ryan teaser!

Meredith & Ryan had such a beautiful wedding. Meredith was stunning in her gorgeous dress and amazing jewelry. They surprised all of their wedding guests with a fireworks show during their reception. I don't know how they managed to keep that a secret! Here are a few faves ;)

Happy Thanksgiving

Happy Thanksgiving from Madison and This Is Life Photography.

Thanksgiving is a time to give thanks for all that we have. So this thanksgiving we'd like to list what we're thankful for.

First and foremost we are thankful for our little Madison. She is such a precious baby. Is there's nothing wrong with being slightly bias?

We're thankful for all her smiles. Especially the ones she gives us in the morning when she wakes up. What a wonderful site to wake up to!

We are thankful that Madison and her two older sisters, Dominique and Alexxis are all in good health. We're not sure if you can ask for anything more as parents.

I [Steve] am so very thankful that Madison has such a wonderful mother. Madison says her mommy is the best mommy ever and she is so thankful for all her hugs, kisses and all her love.

I [Steve] am also thankful to have Marisa in my life. I can't think of a better partner to share my life with and certainly couldn't think of a better mother for our baby Madison.

I [Steve] am thankful that Madison has two wonderful older sisters that love her very much. They are so sweet with her and Madison loves them. We are all thankful for the time we get to share together.

We are thankful to all our family and friends who've shared their love with us over this past year. Having a child really puts the importance of love into perspective.

And lastly, we are thankful for all of our wonderful clients. We are thankful that you have allowed us into your lives to capture your special moments.

Oh, and here's a couple pictures of our little stinkweed, angel pants, precious angel, sweetheart, best baby in the world; Madison Grace.

the matos family

I know I say this a lot but it's true; I have the best clients ever! The Matos family was no exception. They were a lot of fun and they're such a beautiful family. We photographed their session at the Kierland shopping center. It gave the photos an urban feel that is relaxed and fun, which I love!

I love what I do and I love the response I get once my families see their photographs for the first time.

Katie & Pat are so in love and their family and friends are so supportive. It was such a pleasure to document their special day!
