On Saturday I was invited to my friend Rebekah’s home to capture the fun at her house as Shannon was getting ready for Prom. I love it when “my Bride’s” become friends. Since I don’t have daughters to share events like this with I was thrilled with the opportunity. Shannon was a little excited, she had this banner hanging in her room.

Shannon’s older sisters pitched in and helped her with hair and makeup

Her nephew was more interested in the cat than hair and makeup

I love a pretty pair of shoes!
Last minute adjustments before joining her date
Charles was speechless when he saw her coming down the stairs
Loved how perfectly their colors matched
The corsage
Sometimes you need a mom to help with the boutonniere
There were at least 15 other couples and their parents at the house taking pictures. Charles, Shannon and I snuck away from the excitement for a few minutes to make some formal shots. Here are a few of my favs
Seriously, they were having fun during the formals, I told them not to think about the camera or smile for some shots. A little Photoshop fun, LOVE the “timeless feel” in the first one!
Shannon couldn’t hide her smile! Too cute!
A little action
Still smiling and ready to go
Shannon – I hope Prom was everything you hoped it would be and more. Thanks for inviting me! I enjoyed spending the afternoon with everyone and sharing in the excitement!

My Dear Maria, I saw Rebeka the other night and with tears she told me about the wonderful evening when you were there to take photos of her new daughter. They are beautiful. There are artist that know the details of their art and there are artist that emote the emotion they feel in the moment. You are one of those artist that feels, lives and captures all those emotions…..we are sooo lucky to have you in Sierra Vista…..and I do believe you will be busy with a few of us brides….We love you Maria, thank you so much for your talent and being in our lives…..Shawn
