Back in the saddle

*I will NOT be wearing our baby to your wedding*

Birth Photography

Now that I've survived a real-life birth myself I've been seriously considering offering Birth Photography for the Murrieta/Temecula area. It'll be a few months before I'm ready to shoot, so fall/winter due dates are great. I'm starting an interest list, so if you or anyone you know are interested in having your birth documented in our signature photojournalism style, please contact me at glassandplastic@gmail.com.

What we've been up to

Sooo.... we've kinda fallen off the face of the earth lately. But for good reason. Introducing Abbey Lynn, born March 18th. We kinda like her.



Here's the slideshow of Abbey's birth. The following photos were taken by Matthew, my doula, my sister, and myself.

We're slowly adjusting to life with our little monkey, and are anxious to get shooting again now that I (Jess) am able to move around freely. We'll be posting a few photos taken over the past few months soon...

ShanAnn & Chris • Norco Wedding Photographer

Ah, life. It's wonderful how it can move so quickly at times and time can get away from you. To make up for my guilt on taking so long to get these photos posted I'm making this an extra long post.

ShanAnn & Chris were married on a windy day in September at Hidden Valley Golf Club in Norco, Ca.



Something you may notice is that we tend to take a lot of photos of hands and feet, and especially so with this wedding. It's amazing how so much of the story and how many emotions can be told with just a small portion of the scene.

I love this photo of the marriage license being signed, but then again I love flare so maybe it's just me








I love this moment of anticipation that Matthew captured












The best man prepping Chris for the kiss














We ended up running out of sunlight so we pulled out the flash for a few photos


I'm a sucker for fall colors
