AMOUR ABSOLU.

"Perhaps they are not the stars, but rather openings in heaven..

 where the love of our lost ones pours through & shines 

down upon us to let us know they are happy."

A few weeks ago, a great friend of mine lost her grandma. I  know it could never be easy losing a loved one.  Life is so fragile, and a lot of us forget that. I hope everyone is as blessed to have great friends and family to support them if they ever have to go through a heartbreaking time like this. My friend asked me if I could take photos of the ceremony as a favor for her and her family. I contemplated for a while on my decision to post the photos up. It was just so personal, that although my friend told me I could, I still had to select certain ones that I felt appropriate. 

You are loved by your family deeply & unconditionally. 

May you rest in paradise Regina Gopez.

Christine & Billy are one of the cutest couples you could ever meet. It's great to see how love can still grow stronger than ever no matter how many miles you put in between. Christine is one of my closest friends, and I really could not ask for a better guy for her than Billy!

These photos were taken at random when we went on a double date last year. I hope that I'll be able to take more pictures of them for many years to come. 

BECAUSE.. YOU'RE THE ONLY TEN I SEE!

First  I just wanted to say I'm so sorry that I've been missing in action this past MONTH. I just got over a bad flu that's been going around, and now I feel so much better. I am very happy to be back!

The reason for starting this blog was so I could share all my photos. If you know me, you know that I am very bad at uploading pictures. Yes, I said it (To those who remind me every chance you get!). I took a lot of pictures last year and I think I'm ready to share them all with you. So the next few months, there will be current photos and past photos. Either way, I hope you enjoy them all. :)

Earlier last year I took a vacation to see my family in Tennessee. I love visiting and try to visit at least once every other year, but lately it has been like once a year, haha. It is gorgeous there. You don't see many trees  in San Diego like you would see in Tennessee. It's just a great place to visit if you want to sit back, relax and just enjoy the breeze and breathtaking scenery. The best part for me though, is getting to see my brothers and sisters. It's horrible only being able to see your siblings once a year when they're growing every day. Although there's not a lot to do there, we had a simple picnic at a lake and I loved every second of it.

All the photos below are my favorites, but the one that really makes me tear up is the one of emily holding her great grandfather's hand. It really makes me realize how important every second of every day is. She's growing up so fast.
