Ryan & Jessica's E-Session

Meet Ryan & Jessica...


Ryan & Jessica are getting married in a few months. They fell in love after some inner-office romance and decided to get hitched. Ryan & Jessica love to have fun and be outdoors together.




See. I told you so.

And they have a lovely little girl, cutest ever, named Maddy.



They are planning a beautiful wedding at Salt Creek Beach, and a gorgeous reception at Cannons, both in Dana Point.

Ryan & Jessica are also coordinating their wedding-awesomeness with some amazing vendors, like Jeannie, from Wedding Jeannie, and Chuck from Music on the Move. We can't wait!

In the meantime, here are a few more of their e-session photos - they just rocked it, and I'm so excited for them. They make a great team, and I know their future holds beautiful, bright and wonderful things for them!










We'd love to read your thoughts - would you mind sharing a few via commenting on this post? Thanks!

Blessings,
Christine Lee Smith

Louie & Quincy - Vote!

Decisions, decisions... I can't decide which two photos (one of each precious pup) to choose for our friends, Jamie & Brooke.

I'm going to make a 5x7 print of each one for them, as a belated Christmas gift (does that even exist?) but now I can't decide which pic of their pooches to use.

Louie is the grey and white cutie; Quincy is the tan and white puppy.

Which do you think should make it to the final cut?

Christmastime with Family

Christmastime with family is by far my favorite (Thanksgiving is a close second).

Yearly traditions include an annual "pajama party," where participants are required to wear Christmas-themed pajamas, tree shopping with the Smith-side, Family Christmas the weekend prior and more.

This past weekend was the tree buying/PJ party...busy weekend.

Here are a few moments that I love (taken with my itty-bitty Olympus camera). Enjoy and please leave a comment if you'd be so kind. :)

This one's by far my favorite - my husband (left) in conversation with one of his closest friends, Nate. Dad in the background. Mood is just right - and epitomizes what I love about being with family and friends, the kind of friends that blur the lines of family.

Blessings,
Christine Lee Smith
