As a Vernon Photographer, I am blessed with an abundance of gorgeous weather and scenic backdrops.  It seems that when ever I post a session showcasing my clients set against the gorgeous Okanagan vistas, I have photographers from all over the world commenting on how lucky I am to live where I do.  I definitely don’t take it for granted, however, as an artist, it is always refreshing to create a session in a completely different environment.

I have had a love affair with the Palm Springs area since I first went there as a little girl.  Anyone who has been to that area of California can attest to it’s charm.  When my husband and I are old and retired…you will all know where to find us.

I am also very fortunate that my aunt, who I love dearly, lives in Palm Desert and I have been fortunate to have numerous invitations from her to come visit.

This year, I was really wanting to have my own beautiful kids and I photographed against its scenic backdrops as a birthday gift for my husband; I just wasn’t sure how it would all transpire.

About three days into our trip, I found out, much to my delight, that my dear friend Tara, and her beautiful family were also going to be in Palm Springs.  And they were only staying about 5 minutes from where we were!

Tara has known my husband and I from the moment we met and was even present when he choose my engagement ring and proposed!  We have shared so many memories together and I haven’t seen her or her beautiful family, since her little man Cooper was born.  For those of you who follow my blog or my portfolio I was also fortunate to photograph her maternity session and Cooper’s newborn session which was a huge treat as they live on Vancouver Island.

Tara is also an amazing photographer (check out Tara Love Photography) and so we just had to photograph each others families.  Along for the fun, was the Atkinson Family.

The evening was perfect and so was the light.

I can’t wait to surprise my husband with these beautiful images Tara captured of our little family!

Thanks again to Tara Love Photography for these wonderful images!
