Maternity Session + Baby Naming Ceremony

Being present to capture special moments in people's lives is such an honor and privilege. I've been lucky enough to shoot three milestones with this lovely couple: their baby's gender reveal party, maternity portraits and most recently, their baby naming ceremony.

From the archives: The Spring Standards

I shot this pic of The Spring Standards in Nov 2011 and decided to give it a little digital makeover yesterday. Ya know, just for the funz of it. If you've never heard them before, you're in for a treat. Listen up!

PS - I know the glorious Heather in this band from when we were tots doing musicals in her mom's back yard: here's the proof!

New website!

Quick PSA - I've got a new portfolio website for my freelance work up and running: mariellesolan.4ormat.com. I'm really digging how user friendly 4ormat is - I would definitely recommend them.

Doug and Dorothy's Wedding

This was a very special wedding of our friends Doug and Dorothy (Doug is in MiniBoone with my husband Craig and they've been playing music together for around 7 years). I was happy to be 2nd shooting for the wonderful Shawn Connell for most of the event and co-manning the photobooth for the rest. More photos of the event (including Shawn's masterful work) can be found here. What a joyful day!
