Erin, the girl of a hundred hats, creates original, one of a kind hats for every occasion, and is the owner of Olive and Boone Custom Millinery,  She also owns Hamlet~District of Design and is an interior designer. So she truly does wear many hats :) She has this bright, infectious, sparkling smile, and her personality is just as sparkly!

Zach, all 6'-12" of him(or so it seemed), is a former professional basketball player, who played for Gonzaga, and then in France for 9 years. He is now the Vice-President of a geotechnical sonic drilling company!

They also have a blended family, and I can't forget to mention his & hers pooches that complete their story. Erin's buddies, Cher & Hamlet, and Zach's, Riley & Syrah , kept the couple on their toes during the shoot and wrapped up in leashes! :)

When I asked how they met, Erin said, "He just cold called me one day....", after quite a lengthy period of prompting from his friends to "Call this girl!".  He finally did, and the rest is history, at least up until now!! Everything about this couple is just as spontaneous and fun as their introduction, and 'shooting' these two was so much fun! I loved, their natural, playful, organic interactions, and know these two are a perfect match!!

Here is a sneak peek~

Dad & Mom, (Aaron & Edith), were such a sweet couple with a great, easy camaraderie, that it was a joy to work with them, beautiful Vanessa and sweet, shy Alyssa, finished out the bunch.

Actually, that is not true, because there was also Goliath, a dog among dogs, man among men, protector of his family, and recipient of many hugs, kisses and love from not only his family, but also from my girls, who were along for the ride!

Here is a sneak peek, of this fun, awesome family!

Check them out!

PS. Dad's smiles might have been partially fueled by the shopping trip to Cabela's, promised after pics were done ;-D

First, meet Princess, #0816 This girl has been there a couple of weeks and is still waiting for her forever home. She is quiet, and soo shy, but she is the SWEETEST, little girl! Look at these big pretty eyes and come in and give her a pat. She needs someone to love her, and get past her shyness, because once you do, she is soo sweet and lovable, and LOVES being petted. http://www.pixallphotography.com/p860262438

Our other Kitty "Pet of the Week" is Cosmo, #0458! This beautiful black and white kitty, has also been there a couple of weeks, waiting for her new friend to come find him and love him! He is sad because he has been at SCRAPS a couple of weeks, and although he is well taken care of there, and gets lots of love from the awesome volunteers, He REALLY, REALLY wants his own home, with his own people, so please come and see Cosmo, and see what a beautiful kitty he is, and make him your new 'furever' friend. http://www.pixallphotography.com/p637340432
