One of my favorite stories about Geoge is when he started calling himself “Cinderfather”. It’s a term he came up with one year as a joke to mean he is a mistreated step dad. Like Cinderella is abused by her step mom, he is mistreated by me, his step daughter! He turned the big 60 and we had a little party at the Old Spaghetti Factory.

His cake said “You’ve still got it baby!” (My mom’s doing of course.)

Hula games.

Me attempting to hula.

I’ve never seen Jeremy move like this! And he actually won the game! Who knew?

We hope you had a great Birthday George! You are loved!

On Sunday we went to our best family’s Baby Shower. It was an extremely hot but fun day!

The invitation for their shower that came out soooo cute!
Front: His name is Levi so this is fitting. Melody’s sister Amy came up with this great idea!

Inside: Little back story; Jeremy R’s grandpa and dad are named Steve, which is Levi’s middle name. And Grandpa Steve was a professional baseball player and these are some articles they did about him in the newspaper:

Some of the cool details.

I love watching kids eat!

Why our parties are always fun.

Today we shot a fun Bat Mitzvah in a cute room at the Dorothy Chandler Pavilion. Sophie choose a vintage fashion theme that I, of course can appreciate! Everything was so cute and Sophie’s personality came through every detail. The family was so fun and nice to be around. They all just love each other so much!

Some of the table details.

I love this moment!

Having fun dressed up!

Sophie, her sisters, brother and Dad gave speeches.

Instead of having a guest book, they had everyone sign this!

We had such a great time with everyone. Thank you for having us!

One of my favorite movies of all time,

Hey, I’m being phased out of the group.

Amy and her antics!

Because being nerdy is sooo much fun! Don’t judge us. We had “Time of our Lives!”

You know you wish you could be here!

I had the honor of shooting for the lovely Jules Bianchi, one of my favorite photogs! It was a soiree for the vendors of Los Angeles Weddings Magazine. We had a lots of fun and even received a whole gift bag filled with goodies!

Some details:

So this has got to be one of the coolest things ever, Red Cheese :
