Absolute Love? Absolutely!

They say that love comes in different shapes and sizes, races, colors and creeds. Well it also comes in same gender as many of you know this. It is still taboo or can become a very heated topic of conversation.

We have watched in awe as these ladies have raised their two beautiful daughters, keeping full time jobs, and giving so much to the community and people around them while fighting the stigma that all same sex couples face on a daily basis.

It is evident that nothing can tear you apart when you are with the one you love and we have them to thank for that REALITY. A special thank you to Lisa Bove and Renna Killen for being such awesome supporters of our work and awesome examples too of what love truly is. We couldn't have better cheerleaders!

Rhianna

So where do you take somebody in LA that’s getting ready for her Debut… er… um… Swebut that’s lush and green (and natury?) that doesn’t look at all like LA? Fern Dell, that’s where!!! At least that’s where we took Rhianna for her pre Debut… uh… Swebut photo session. And it was awesome! Right after the rain! Glad the dress didn’t get wrecked. Whew!!!

It is not often that we get the privilege of capturing such a stunning group of athletes in action, and it's even less often that they go "vogue" for us on our little studio set up. With hours of training on them, endless homework assignments, and chores, not to mention friends and family gatherings, I often wonder....do they even sleep? Super humans perhaps and super gracious. Thank you again for being great role models; all of you!
