A very merry 3rd unbirthday to her!

Madi celebrated her third birthday. I still can’t believe my first born is now three, when they say times flies, they mean it.

She LOVES All thing Alice in wonderland, so we decided to have a tea party for her.

Heather's Bridal Portraits

I absolutely LOVE taking bridal portraits. During the big day sometimes time doesn’t allow for more intimate photos. That’s why I offer bridal portraits to my clients! This way there’s no and no stress. That way I can focus on just you in a carefree environment.

Meet the MaGee's

Y’all. These are my in laws. I married into one of the most beautiful (inside and out) families. Every time we go back to California to see my husband’s families I take family photos for them. I think the first photos we took were when they came to visit us in Washington. The oldest gal, Maggies, was two almost three. Now she’s almost seven. They’ve added the newest babe, Abby. Abby and my Madi are only a few months apart. Which we are so ecstatic for, built in best friends! These images were taken at Pinnacles State Park near Hollister, CA. It was SO hot this day! Originally I had planned on sunset beach session at Big Sur, but California is crazy. I went out the night before, and low and behold- absolutely NO SUN. Summer’s are tricky near Big Sur, the fog likes to come in a few hours before sunset and never leave. Like ever. Ok that’s an exaggeration but it totally killed our vibes. Till Katie suggested we move out here. So we loaded up the cars, we found a gorgeous spot and got to it. Again, it was over 90 something outside, I was tula’ing Madi, she wasn’t feeling it. All the girls wanted to do was run around and play and throw rocks. Despite all the changes and last minture “oh wait lets do this!”’s, I’m super happy with how these turned out and I’m so glad these girls will have these to look back on growing up!

Madi Meets Mickey and Minnie Mouse

So if you know my child you know she loves Mickey and Minnie Mouse (like we hot dog dance and watch them religiously in the mornings, daily). Seth got to go fishing in Alaska with his dad so I thought, why don’t we (my sister in law and mother in law) load up the girls and take a little trip to Disneyland while we’re in California! So we did! Three adults, and three kids (two of which were barely one). At first I started thinking we might be crazy, but we had SUCH a great time!

Madi got to hang out with her cousins and meet her favorite characters, Mickey and Minnie! She met a few others too, buuuut she had the typical reaction you’d think a one year old would have meeting giants characters you thought only existed on tv.  She cried, and screamed… and pulled away from them. We did progress up to high fives though! Heck no to hugs.

We went in July. Yes, it was roasting hot but after checking out a few blogs we figured out ways to keep cool and where to get FREE waters! That was a life saver.

We made friends with a few cast members, FiFi the photographer and Officer Blue. FiFi helped me with the epic Madi and the balloon shots. Which I will forever be grateful for because those might be my all time favorite photos of Madi, EVER. Officer Blue called Goofy over so our girls had a surprise one on one character experience. That was pretty awesome and sweet! I have to say y’all, the cast members are top notch and deserve so much credit! All in all our Disneyland adventure was fast paced, crazy and chaotic yet flew by, but so worth it! I am so glad we have these photo to share with Madi as she grows up.
