More Alexis Quinceanera

A few more favorites from Alexis' Quinceanera celebration now that I've had a chance to finish editing the set for her and her family.

Alexis' Quinceañera

A few weeks ago, I got to photograph Alexis as she celebrated her quinceañera. I met Alexis through her aunt Diane, a bridesmaid at the first wedding I ever photographed, so it was very cool to have the photography I've been doing over the past few years come back around in that way. Alexis is incredibly sweet, as was her whole family. I loved her mom's speech about how special Alexis is and how she'll achieve all her dreams, and I felt really lucky to be a part of the day for that.

There are about 200 photos from that day that I'm still going through, more of which I'll post soon, but in the meantime I wanted to post a little sneak peek of some of my favorites!

Happy Birthday.

Last weekend was a good friend/old roommate's milestone birthday. We celebrated in a style completely fitting to her personality - riding in a limo, drinking champagne, eating cupcakes, arriving at a bar that used to be a bordello to watch another friend go-go dancing and listen to good music. The Betsy Johnson dress is so adorable and kind of reminiscent of the blueberry cupcake my friend was sampling on the way to her party. I think it's safe to say she had a good birthday.
