It's a... Congratulations Debbie and Jose!

Congratulations Jose and Debbie!

On Friday June 19, 2014 this wonderful couple discovered whether they will be having a baby boy or girl. This wonderful BBQ called together their friends and family to celebrate this joyful occasion. After settling in the Cruz' family pulled out a box which contained blue or pink balloons, which will reveal the sex of their baby. They, being unaware of the gender, tore open the box and happy to know they will be having another baby boy!

It was a great moment I had the privilege to capture and share in! So happy for you guys!

Sidney's Graduation Party

Sidney! Your party was full on fun!

There was several performances, food and of course dancing! I'm sure Sidney enjoyed his special night. It was amazing to see his friends and family get together to support this young man, as he continues to grow. Sidney is deeply loved by the people who were in attendance of his gathering. This was more than a party; and more than a graduation. This was a moment, that he will remember and cherish. Congratulations, Mr Sidney Charles!

I had a lot of fun documenting this event. I hope you all enjoy this little preview of his night!

Matthew and Katherine Proposal

Congratulations to Matthew and Katherine on their engagement proposal. I love documenting surprise engagements, but this one especially memorable. During the weekend on the International Convention of Jehovah's Witnesses, Matt took advantage of this opportunity to collect all of his and his fiancé's close family and friends. Since they were all in attendance, they were all able to witness this special occasion.

Then plan was to get Katherine to believe this gathering of her friends was just to get a group photo. Little did she know her family photo-bombed so they can see Matthew get down on one knee and "tie his shoe." After directing them to the middle of the photo and having Matthew kneel down, I handed him the ring. And in a matter of seconds everyone was overflowing with emotions. The couple caught the attention of nearby attendees of the convention. People who didn't know them or even speak the same language clapped cheered and hugged them. Truly a memorable day.

Oh! And Matthew was able to tie his shoe...
