Family Portrait


My best friend Bree recently paid for a photoshoot so my hubby and I could get our first professional photographs done since our wedding (4 years ago). My first thought was how can we include the pups in the photos as I consider them to be a part of our family! I was thrilled to find that my alma mater, Santa Clara University, would give me a photo permit to take pictures on campus right next to the church where we were married. What you can't see in the photo above is that I'm hiding several pieces of pupperoni in my right hand after *just* getting the pups to lay down, stay still, and look at the photographer. The entire process took at least 10-15 minutes, but I'm glad we made the effort because now we have this beautiful family photo to cherish forever!



We also took a few shots of just us. The pups were super jealous not to be included, of course! :)





Four years ago I married the man of my dreams. He loves me (and the pups!) more than anything and I couldn't have asked for a better husband. I can't wait to see what life has in store for us!
