Chad and Dyanna ~ Engagement

I am so excited about this session that I could not even wait until tomorrow to post it! Chad and Dyanna absolutely rocked everything about this! Tim and I had such a good time with them and I cannot believe how much fun they were and how great they are together. God has truly blessed me with a job where I get to capture people in love... what better job is there?

Thank you Chad and Dyanna again for coming out! It was such a wonderful day and you two are gorgeous :)


Chad brought his guitar and it made for some wonderful photos :)












We started our session at Presidio Park and it was GORGEOUS!


















Yes, they were this much fun the entire time!
















We ended our session with some fun shots at La Jolla Shores :)
















Save the date! 8-15-09 :)

Logo and cards!!!

I realized I have never actually sat down and taken photos of my business cards and thank you cards that I adore oh so much! There has been so much put into making them and I just love looking at them and thinking they are mine :) I know that sounds silly, but I just can't help but smile when I see them. Tim did such an amazing job on my logo (and helping with the cards designs as well) and I have to say thank you so much to him for it! He is seriously so creative and it is fun to hear people say, "oh I see the B, M, and P in the logo!" I bet you will be looking closely now to see it yourself (just tilt your head to the right when you find each letter) :)

P.S. it stands for Bethany Murphy Photography in case the letters confused ya ;)

thank you card and business card side by side, both on linen paper (since you probably can't tell)

Tim, thank you for being so patient and sitting with me for hours figuring out exactly what it is that I want and like and picking my brain apart as much as you possibly can :)

Random fun

Tim and I went out the other day to have a little fun. He took me to Dudley's Bakery, the bakery that has his favorite bread. He was pretty much correct (aside from my mom's homemade bread of course) It was fabulous! Then we took some photos and had more fun :)




This is me devouring the bread...


still eating...








Man he is hot! I am one lucky girl :)

Adalyn's 1st birthday

Well I decided it is about time I blogged this session. Adalyn is just about to turn two :) I was not blogging yet when I did this session, but this family means so much to me and they are soo adorable, that I could not resist putting them up! I am seriously so blessed to know the Mathis family! They are so incredible and loving, oh and absolutely a BLAST to hang out with!

Thank you guys for allowing me in your lives, I am so blessed to be called your friend. You two are amazing and your family is absolutely beautiful! I cannot wait for all the fun times to come :) I love you


It is not every day you see a real life doll!




This cracks me up... she is totally like... "not now dad, there are people watching"






at this point she decided if she told me bye and waved to me, I would leave and the session would be over :)


she found the water early on and from that point, she wanted nothing else but that






Here is her daddy teaching her how to blow the dandelion


















I had to put this picture up because of how much it makes me laugh... she had a snot accident and I cannot help but crack up at her dad's reaction! That was pretty much the cherry on top and the session was over :)




Adalyn happy to be done... straight back to the water...
