Apr 11, 2013It's packed with content, and even in the later hours I was thrown into areas I had yet to discover. Whether you choose to explore, race, or compete with friends, there's a home for you in Fairhaven.
Apr 2, 2013A great conversion of one of the best driving games available today. It´s the finest console version too.
Apr 16, 2013Most Wanted U holds the status of the best entry and furthers the accessibility of the formula in meaningful ways.
Mar 19, 2013Need for Speed Most Wanted is an expertly tuned and turbocharged port that brings a superior experience to the Wii U. The game is just as good, even better than the other versions, the new Wii U features are fun and best of all it runs like a dream on Nintendo's new console.
Apr 3, 2013All in all, Need for Speed: Most Wanted U is the standout game on the Wii U for racing, and probably one of the better games available on the console right now. It does have some faults, but is still an excellent example of the Need for Speed universe.
Mar 19, 2013This edition of the game has many of the components that made the title successful on the other systems, and more, but the behind-the-wheel experience puts it in second place.
Apr 1, 2013Overall, it's not worth a double dip if you own the game on another system, but if you have a younger child and/or are really interested in jumping in, I do highly recommend the Wii U version.

Feb 10, 2014This game is insanely gorgeous and incredibly fun. And not to mention also pretty easy to pick up.
The graphics blew me away. This is one of the most graphically impressive games on Wii U -- it clearly shows a gap between the Wii U and last gen.
Controls have been improved through a game update since release. Nonetheless, you must also strategize what cars you'll use to do a race -- you're just not going to win a mud race with Lamborghini.
Car customization offers enough complexity for hardcore racing fans without being overwhelming to a novice player. Using the gamepad to customize cars, weather, traffic and other things is pretty cool too.… Expand
Mar 19, 2013I had this for PS3 and Vita before I got a Wii U. The game looks noticeably better but the main thing going for this game or any Wii U game for that matter is playing it on the controller. It's on a different level then playing it on the Vita.… Expand
May 3, 2014Most Wanted U is a great time. I have spent a clocked in time of 40+ hours in this game enjoying what it has to offer. If you like to find ever nook and cranny hidden in the game, race online with friends freely, face challenges unrelated to racing, or having a high speec chase with the most infamous drivers in town, Need for Speed Most Wanted U has it all.… Expand
Mar 23, 2013This is the definitive version of the game. The reason you want this version, the best version, is for the co-op couch play. It is incredibly fun, makes it almost impossible to play it any other way.Having one person on the GamePad, acting as Co-Pilot, and the other on the Pro Controller, driving, and NFSMWU is an excellent experience that really shows the potential of the system. The REALITY of the GAME and the DOWNSIDE: Some will say this game looks better because they are able to use PC textures, and that sounds good in theory, but in practice not so much. Since the game isn't running at 1080p, the PC textures don't really add much to the look of the game. In fact, I have this on PS3 and running the WiiU version side by side on a 60" LED Samsung, the PS3 version is definitely a better looking game. And there is a major problem when trying to use the GamePad to Race, it is horrible, super laggy and unresponsive, like trying trying to drive a 5 ton brick when you're supposed to be driving a race car; the only way to really enjoy this, as the driver, is to use the Pro Controller.… Expand
Apr 11, 2013Was skeptical about this version, but based on the reviews went ahead and forked over the overpriced $60 for this EA title. The 2 major positives I can give is its a gorgeous game. The art direction and HD graphics are some of the best I've seen on the Wii U. Game pad integration and off tv play is great Wii U added benefit.
On to the negatives as much as the graphics are great, its the racing and gameplay that counts and this title misses the mark considerably. Judging it by 'arcade' standards vs. a sim, most of the cars drive like slightly modified bricks. Some are faster, some are looser, some take damage better, while others have better brakes, but all them are borderline uncontrollable or pointless to master. The steering is not progressive at all, you get as much steering at 60 mph not much as you do at 160mph too much that after hours of play, you just end up wanting to use the few vehicles that are the most predictable. Nissan GT-R, Camaro ZL1, and Aston Martin Vantage are the few with predictable at drifting needed to beat most of the most wanted list. The Arial and Caterham are blast to drive, but so weak that small bumps on the wall total the car every time. Forget running from the cops in these, they can't get through roadblocks. This mix of realism along with whack arcade physics is the games #1 downfall. It should be called 'most crashed'
Driving around the streets and traffic is maddening, as its nearly impossible to carve out any racing lines without randomly hitting objects, oncoming traffic, and walls because of the really poor steering control. I don't feel like its a controller problem or could be fixed with a wheel, its just how the cars react to input and don't really feel connected at all. Its about as arcade as you can get, but not in a fun way, as the rubberband AI will never reward you with smooth driving, and during the races with cops, winning or losing its just random. Like missiles that randomly come in all directions and road blocks with no other choice other than to ram at full speed. You can forget any strategy here, it just becomes the slickest Mario Kart ever, without any weapons or recourse against your enemies. Never unlocking anything new or making meaningful progression. The lack of any car personalization or view are sorely missed. The open end world seems huge at first, but quickly gets repetitive with only a few unique objects. The gate and billboard smashing is uninspiring and too easy.
Online play is a lot more fun, as the rubberband AI is gone so heads-up racing is fun, but do to the lack of good control, its really just about avoiding the walls or following the course guide correctly. I would of rather just paid $30-40 for the online version and forget the whole 'most wanted' story line that really is pointless.… Expand
Jan 27, 2014I don't understand how this game is receiving such positive reviews. The controls are garbage and THERE'S NOT LOCAL-MULTIPLAYER. IN A RACING GAME. ARE YOU KIDDING ME?? Combine that with an interminable introduction/training sequence with un-skippable cutscenes and a bored "sexy" narrator reading lines that sound like they were written by a 15 year old and you have the WORST racing game I have every played in my life.… Collapse

Running back has dealt with occasional irregular heartbeat since age 12. Terry McCormick
Houston Texans running back Arian Foster might be undergoing a heart procedure in an attempt to correct an irregular heartbeat, according to the NFL Network.
Foster left the Texans game against the Minnesota Vikings in December when his heart began to beat at a rapid and uncontrollable pace. It was the first time it had happened in a game, though Foster has had about eight incidents of the irregular heartbeat since the age of 12.
According to the report, former NBA star Hakeem Olajuwon had a similar condition and had a procedure done to correct the problem.

Inventor touts Robocop-style armour for use in Iraq
Legendary Canadian inventor Troy Hurtubise has decided to offer his services in the War on Terror, spending two years developing the Trojan armoured suit. He reckons it could prove useful in south-west Asian combat. Hurtubise rose to fame in the 1990s during his 15-year-plus effort to develop a suit which could resist bear …
Already been and gone on eBay
The suit was already up for sale on eBay after the military snubbed it, it didn't make the reserve either.
Got to $35K
More of an innovation really...
Typical american "invention"; Take an existing invention and stick on a clock and/or weapons.
I suppose we'll just have to hope...
... that he doesn't team up with Kevin Warwick. Speaking of which, how IS Captain Cyborg these days? Upgrading himself to Vista or something?
I've seen this before
Does anyone else watch Stargate? (Or is that a stupid question to post on a geek news website :) )
Anyhow - I've seen this armour before - It's one of Anubis' Kull warriors;
Very cool looking though - I'll get myself one after I find my stormtrooper armour.
Hamilton Home for the Terminally Bewildered
The outpatients have been busy I see.
After the video I'm still doubting between cruel joke and incureable insanity. `pepper spray with 1% capsicain will take out a man but not a bear --- how to take out a bear, or 30--40 insurgents? 3% spray!' Mkay...
I guess the `world clock with 20 locations' on his crotch clinches the verdict. Loveable YouTube comments though, `someone push this muppet in a river and see if he floats'...
"User death imminent- morphine administered"
Does this suit protect the wearer against heacrabs?
re: More of an innovation really.....
Hey - we Americans don't lay claim to this looney (and yes for those who make the connection between the inventor and the coin of his realm, this is an intentional pun). He hails from the fair province of Ontario in the Great White North.
And by the way, Troy has the market cornered in bear safe wearables - there's precious little competition in the sector.

January 10, 2014
Anyone associated with getting to market new light vehicles, (cars, light trucks and SUVs), not to mention sales and manufacturing of them, has reason to be hopeful about business prospects in the New Year.
The National Automobile Dealers Association predicts 16.4 million new cars and light trucks will be purchased or leased in the U.S. this year, a 5.1% increase from 2013, according to a new report.
"Consumers will be far better off in 2014 than last year," says NADA Chief Economist Steven Szakaly. "Employment is improving. Debt has been reduced, and home prices across all regions of the country will remain stable or will rise, yielding a positive wealth effect."
Last year, 15.6 million new light vehicles were sold in the U.S. It marked fifth straight year of a long recovery from the global financial crisis and the automotive bankruptcies.
"Growth would have been stronger in 2013 without a series of contentious fiscal crises in Washington and a federal government shutdown last fall," he says.
"There is considerable upside potential in 2014 as economic activity is expected to increase as the year progresses," he added. "Gross domestic product will grow about 2.8 percent this year, stability in housing with concurrent growth in employment and manufacturing all lead to a positive outlook for 2014."
Szakaly says that employment, particularly in the construction and services industries, will improve this year, and a continued moderation in gasoline prices and improvements in the housing market will help to offset stagnation in wages and income in 2014.

UP24 by Jawbone Wristband (Medium)
UP24 by Jawbone Wristband (Medium)
Product Information
Combining the Jawbone UP24 wristband and the UP app on your iPhone, iPod touch, or iPad, the UP system helps guide you every step of the way to a better, healthier you. First, the UP system gets to know you — tracking your activity, diet, and sleep. Then it shows you how to make simple adjustments that, over time, result in significant improvements.
Eat better
Studies show that simply tracking what you eat can help you lose weight. And whether you want to shed a few pounds or just eat healthier, tracking food with UP24 is now even easier. New features include frequent meals, an enhanced calorie counter, and an expanded library of restaurant menus. There's even a Food Score, so you can quickly see how healthy your food choices are. It's all designed to help you make good choices about what to eat and when.
Sleep soundly
The UP system gives you an in-depth picture of your sleep. Sleep graphs let you see the good, the bad, and the rapidly improving. Use bedtime reminders, Power Nap, and Smart Alarm to get to sleep and wake up at optimal times. UP intelligently analyzes your sleep, diet, and exercise, then suggests simple changes that lead to more rest and happier days.
Move more
The UP system is like a coach that gets to know you, then guides you to make simple decisions that lead to a more active life. With precise step tracking, workout logging, and Insight Reports, UP is much more than a pedometer. Use Idle Alert to remind you to move throughout the day and add friends to your team to cheer and be cheered. When it comes to your activity goals, it doesn't matter where you start — what's important is where you're headed.
How to pick your size
Wrap a string snugly around your wrist. Mark on the string where the two ends cross. Measure the string from one end to the marked place and following the size guide to determine which UP Band is right for you. Small = 5.5 to 6 inches/14 to 15.5 cm; Medium = 6 to 7 inches/15.5 to 18 cm; Large = 7 to 8 inches/18 to 20 cm.
- Log food and drink; features such as frequent meals, calorie counter, and Food Score quickly show how healthy your food choices are
- Wireless syncing for in-the-moment notifications and personalized insights that keep you moving toward sleep and activity goals
- Track Sleep including total hours, time to fall asleep, number of wake ups
- Track Activity including steps, distance, calories burned, active versus idle time
- Smart Alarm and Power Nap features wake you at the time that leaves you feeling refreshed
- Customizable Idle Alerts remind you to move
- Designed to be worn 24/7; up to seven days of battery life
- Free UP app downloadable from the App Store

Has faults, but has great customer support.
After owning this device for 8 months, I can say it's a good device. I've had the original UP and that failed after 3 months, then After owning this device for 8 months, I can say it's a good device. I've had the original UP and that failed after 3 months, then I got the Fitbit Flex. That lasted a while, but it wasn't intuitive at all. It was a nuisance switching modes, having to tap the band repeatedly. So, then I went back to Jawbone and decided on the UP24. But now this one is having issues. The band does what it's supposed to do, and the app behind it is great. This is by far the best tracker I've used that has the sleep function. But it doesn't do well with wear and tear. For some reason, my band seems to be unresponsive at times when switching to different modes. Even when I want to check what mode it's in, whether it'd be Sleep or Regular mode, I have to push the button a couple of times. However, it still functions, syncs to my phone ok it's just switching modes the lights don't show and I have to push the button several times to see what mode it's at. Jawbone support is VERY helpful. So regardless of the issues, they have great support. I'll be receiving a replacement from them soon since it's under the 1-year warranty.
Would I recommend this band to anyone? Yes I would regardless of the faults. …

Pocket Karma Sutra
Reviewed: October 18, 2014 by J e m, a Straight Going Steady Female
This is a very handy sized little book, full of helpful tips of how to please you partner. Ideal for men or women.
Unfortunately, the book was lacking in ideas for different sex positions, only a few were featured. Because of this I actually returned the product as it wasn't quite what I expected.
- Pros
- Size of the book.
- Cons
- The pictures features, lack of sex positions.
- Bottom line
- A handy sized book for sex tips, lacking in sex positions.

Way too many words!
Reviewed: October 18, 2009 by Seb568, a Straight Single Male
Disappointed with this book: way too many words and not enough pictures! At least half the pages of the book are words... not what is expected from a Kama Sutra book!
Some pictures are nice, but nothing amazing.
Quite a small format too, and some pictures are split in the middle.
- Pros
- Cheap.
- Cons
- Too many words.
- Bottom line
- Not the best.

Bishop Lamont - All I Dream About ft. Pooh Bear
Artist: Bishop Lamont
Producer: Scott Storch
Album: Pope Mobile Mixtape
Avg Rating: 3.8 ( 22 votes )
In the amount of time that has gone by since rapper/producer Dr. Dre announced he was going to release his final studio album entitled Detox, the phrase "highly-anticipated" has been used 4.8 billion times. During this same stretch of time rapper Bishop Lamont was discovered by Dre and inked to a recording contract with Aftermath Entertainment. Known as a mecca for talent, home to both Eminem and 50 Cent, Lamont has waited patiently for the label to give him his time to shine. While the rapper just recently released his Pope Mobile mixtape, featuring the Scott Storch-produced and Pooh Bear-featured All I Dream About, Lamont is excitedly gearing up for the 2008 release of his debut album, The Proclamation.

Liberty Road Golf Center's multifaceted facilities help golfers fine-tune swings with every club in their bag. Piercing drives, pinpoint approaches, and remote-controlled flop shots take flight from the Center's 20-stall driving range before touching down in a field peppered with yardage-marked flags and realistic faux bunkers to simulate on-course targets. A stint at the short-game practice area preps clubbers for a round at the nine-hole, par 3 course, where players launch tee shots onto slick, artificial greens and punish egotistical drivers by making them sit out for the round. While practice areas sharpen swings, master club tinkerer Mark J. Diley re-grips, re-shafts, and repairs clubs, and the center offers rental drivers and 6-irons for those without their own set. The Center also encompasses outdoor batting cages, where mechanical hurlers sling softballs and baseballs at eight different speed settings.
The night sky lay heavy over the rolling hills of Gettysburg. In a tent among his fellows in the Union Army, Private Ron Angleberger woke from a restless sleep to the blaring of a cavalry horn and the earth-shaking rumble of hundreds of horses on the charge. He raced outside his tent with the other Civil War reenactors to discover that there were no horses present, and, in the eerie silence that followed the apparition, the regiments of actors realized they might have been privy to one of General Custer's July 3rd charges. This incident, along with a love for history and similar paranormal experiences on the many battlefields around Frederick, led Ron to form Ghost Tours of Historic Frederick and Mount Olivet Cemetery History Tours.
Today, Ron's tours explore the bone-chilling histories of Frederick's most haunted abodes as he tells stories of their inhabitants both living and dead.
Voted No. 4 in the Top 10 Birthday Chains for Kid Birthday Parties by Parents magazine in 2010, Pump It Up's Frederick location sprawls across 11,000 square feet of play areas and party rooms teeming with inflatable fun. A stalwart staff oversees the neighborhood of bounce houses and air-filled playthings that populate the indoor arena, including a regal throne for celebrating birthdays or announcing edicts that mandate dessert for breakfast. The ascending wall of the Vertical Rush challenges climbers with a hump-shaped obstacle, and attached dueling slides send victors careening into fun. Throughout the week, families can pop in for open play and lectures on refinancing treehouse mortgages, or they can tote along their own mini entourage for birthday party packages complete with private rooms, complimentary invitations, and a veritable stockpile of extras to customize the celebratory shenanigans.
The 13 dance instructors at this alternative fitness facility believe that staying healthy doesn't have to be boring. That's why they enthusiastically lead classes that help ladies slim their silhouettes with flirty dance routines and aerobatic moves performed while swirling around a pole or perched atop a chair. Their beginner courses set participants on the sultry road to fitness with basic moves, whereas their advanced courses set calories ablaze with gravity-defying techniques that also help gals reach the top of flagpoles without praying to George Washington. Beyond the classroom, the instructors host parties for ladies looking for a lively bachelorette party or girls' night out.
• For $50, you get a Lion Level animal adoption and member benefits package (a $100 value). • For $125, you get a Pride Level animal adoption and member benefits package (a $250 value). • For $250, you get a Savannah Level animal adoption and member benefits package (a $500 value). • For $499, you get an Africa Level animal adoption and member benefits package (a $1,000 value). The Catoctin Wildlife Preserve and Zoo's range of adoption plans enables donors to contribute to a year's worth of care and feeding for an animal of their choice, including african lions, amazon parrots, and bengal tigers. Adoptive animal parents can use their set of guest passes to visit the sun bears, kangaroos, crash-landed martians, and galapagos tortoises that roam the preserve's 50 acres. A hundred colorful fish frolic in Delaney's Japanese Koi Pond near Asian plants and a recently naturalized waterfall, and the dozen inhabitants of nearby Alligator Bayou glide and snap through a miniature Louisiana swamp stocked with spanish moss. One-hour safari rides, led by reanimated 19th-century British explorers, trek through the preserve's heart, where bison, zebra, and llamas approach the truck to be petted, fed, and photographed.
Starting in the mangrove swamps of South Florida as Tarzan's Cup, The Jungle Cup tests runners' warrior instincts and brute strength with a bevy of jungle-inspired challenges. Lone wolves, coed pairs, or teams of four take on the 5K course's rivers of mud and swinging vines with the hope of winning the coveted Jungle Cup—or at least a finisher's medal. Obstacles vary based on the run's location, but contestants can rest assured that their endurance will be put to the test through primal trials such as leaping over fire pits, hurling javelins, and swimming through water hazards. After the race, athletes cool down with a frosty beverage at the Jungle Party, which celebrates their victories with fire shows, hula hoop-offs, and costume contests.

Before Twitter and YouTube could respond, millions of users saw video of journalist James Foley being beheaded. An equally large number of people were privy to naked photos of celebrities on sites such as 4chan and reddit, after a hacker illegally stole the photos from the cloud. These were eventually removed, but not before a surprising controversy rose up around these instances: Should social media sites be in the business of censoring content-and, by extension, users?

We are taught early on that if we want to make a good impression, then we have to be extremely aware of our appearance, from the way we dress, to the way we style our hair to the way our smile looks. If you are self-conscious about your smile, don't fret – there are several options open to you in order to fix it. Everyone should feel comfortable enough to smile at others and laugh, and an orthodontist will be able to help you with that. An orthodontist is an expert in tooth misalignment, jaw misalignment and smile correction. They are the ones you go to when you have a problem with the way your smile looks, or when a dentist is seriously suggesting that you need to fix the way your teeth are set up for the sake of your health.
When you visit with an orthodontist, it's a good idea to take a look at their portfolio of previous patients to see what they are capable of doing. It should be a procedure of assurance for you, because you will definitely some pretty poor cases of tooth misalignment and they have gotten straighter teeth. You see, everyone that goes to the orthodontist will hear good news! There's so much technology involved in the field of orthodontic care that it is possible to help everyone out.
The orthodontist may very well analyze your mouth and start you off with a retainer to see how it would treat you. It's an effective method of treatment for the right person. It's a wire that is custom-fitted to your mouth and it is used to hold the teeth in place. For the right person, it can produce nice results. If a retainer is not really working for you (it's normally given to people with mild misalignment), then the orthodontist will recommend for you to wear braces. If you are an adult, this is not a bad thing – you have several options that you can choose from and it won't affect your work.
First off, there are the traditional steel braces. Metal braces are very obvious on anyone who has worn them. They stick out like a sore thumb. The metal contrasts very strongly to the teeth, and the metal can reflect light, which catches a lot of attention. You normally see this types of braces on children and teenagers. They are waning in popularity though even among the younger generation because of the more discreet options that are available. They are easy for the orthodontist to put on, and because of this, this is the cheapest option available for treatment. It's also very effective and it adapts to all sorts of people with all sorts of cases. Steel braces can literally help so many others change the look of their teeth.
For more discreet options that is pleasing to the pocket, there are the clear braces, which function and look very much like steel braces except that the brackets are made of clear material. There are still wires that are connected to the brackets (the brackets are glued to the teeth and the wires are tightened for treatment). It's not that this option is invisible – far from it. But it just doesn't grab the attention as much like steel braces do. This is a better option for teens who have a lot of anxiety about the idea of wearing braces, but it's not as helpful to adults who work in the professional or corporate realm and really need to upkeep proper appearances.
Then you have the lingual braces (also called hidden braces). These are considered to be hidden because of their unique design. They function also on a bracket and wire system, except that they are glued behind the teeth instead of at the front. The genius that designed these wanted to make sure it was a very discreet option, and it is – no one will be able to tell that you are undergoing treatment unless you point it out to them. These are a lot more uncomfortable than regular braces, and so you will have to deal with more than you may want to as the orthodontist takes great care in applying them and tightening the wires. But it may be well worth the effort if you want to keep up appearances. It's also slightly cheaper than the last option.
That last option is Invisalign – or invisible braces. These are computer designed, clear plastic aligners that wear like a mouth guard and push the teeth into alignment. These are so much more comfortable to wear and they look invisible! Except that this is a costly method among the rest, so it's something that you will have to consider.

Malibu Senior Portraits … with Sisters
Share with Friends & Family
It's a great way to start their day!
I absolutely love shooting out of town Senior Portrait clients …. I love that they find me on google and choose me. Yeah, I said it. It feels good to be chosen, right?
But really… I love meeting and spending time with them. All my sessions are experiences – and I always come away from them feeling happier….more connected….more calm – relaxed even! We all have those days – when life is chaotic and honestly, I don't know HOW I'm gonna pull this together…but inevitably, on the way home, Jami and I will reflect on how freakin' awesome that just was.
This session was just that.
Freakin' awesome.
Connected. Happy. Fun.
Kyra is 2015 Senior from Washington {state} and I was lucky enough to photograph her and her amazing sisters this past summer for her Malibu Senior Portraits. They are all beautiful — I think they look like fairy princesses in their little white dresses and flower crowns
I also made Kyra a flower crown after discussing different options with her mom via email; I just love how it turned out…. suited her perfectly, don't ya think?
She is STUNNING to photograph – obviously… such beautiful features {Jami was in love with her eyebrows, no surprise there! And did such a fantastic job on simply enhancing her natural beauty}. Kyra is an athlete but ….. she definitely knows how to work a camera as well. She was a dream to shoot….
And I'm so glad we got some shots of her with her sisters Kylie and Chloe … they are all so photogenic and fun — we were able to get some shots with gorgeous greenery and natural surroundings – AND California beaches … the right mix of both!
as always, feel free to click and share these!
Just love them…
Now that my senior summer is winding down and we are FINALLY getting cooler weather here, I'm having a chance to try and catch up on blogging some of the awesome sessions I've had!
Update: 2014 is booked but I do have openings for SPRING sessions for 2015 Seniors – click the pic to find out more
– and for all you 2016 (YES, 2016!) Seniors…… click the pic for info
For the photographer friends reading, this session was shot with a Nikon D800 and mainly the Nikon 85mm 1.4 lens, with the 35mm thrown in there too. Mostly all natural light, but 2 Westcott Ice Lights were also used for the beach shots. xo, R

It's a great way to start their day!
So excited to finally blog Peyton's fun session that we shot here in Santa Clarita! She opted for the Model Session and was able to fit in six outfit changes and got pampered by the glam goddess, Jami Cox with killer hair and makeup too. I love how Jami kept Peyton as natural as possible, while adding just enough to make her images pop!
These are some of her favorite shots and the ones she chose for her gorgeous custom 40 page Model Album and her canvases & announcements as well!

Share with Friends & Family
It's a great way to start their day!
What can I say…. when you have a model as gorgeous as this…. it's hard to take a bad pic. I mean seriously…
Sophie is ridiculously beautiful – and SO fun to shoot. She's just the sweetest!! I had the pleasure of photographing her older {equally gorgeous} sister Emma in 2011 We shot Sophie's session in Malibu at a favorite spot of mine that is both beach and beautiful gardens, flowers, etc. – I just love the colors in her session.
{as always, feel free to pin and share}
I made this flower crown for her that day (it's actually the same one I did the tutorial on) and it looked sooooo good with that Free People dress!! She looks like a fairy!
Jami did a wonderful job on her makeup and kept her pretty natural — and I love how the makeup changed with each outfit….with minimal changes on Jami's end….just a simple lip color change or eye makeup enhancing and voila' – a whole different look! These in the hat … I die. I mean, those shoes, that dress, everything… just worked so well!!!
I loved all her outfits — she had a great range of beautiful colors and different looks – that's what so great about the Model Session; we have more time to create many different looks! We even had time for a few cheerleader shots
And she even brought her boyfriend for a few at the end — he's too darn cute not to put in there after all How adorable are they?!
and check out her slideshow:
I have had SUCH a great summer shooting all my 2015 #rbmodels — I can't believe I'm booking January – April now…. I do have a couple of open spots for November but that's IT for 2014!!!!!

It's a great way to start their day!
Amy is one of my 2015 Senior Reps and we were lucky enough to shoot her session over at her grandparents' house, where her horse also lives — so we got some really great images of her with her best friend
Not gonna lie… it was a little warm that day, but we really had a blast with Amy, her Mom and Grandmother…. what a great family. I'm so fortunate to have such amazing people to work with and shoot their senior portraits….seriously – Jami and I laughed a lot that day! (ok, we laugh all the time, but Amy is super fun) Speaking of Jami, she did a beautiful job on Amy's makeup and hair; keeping her natural and light — she is an amazing volleyball player and a senior over at Saugus High by the way.
Love all her outfits too!

Lauren B | #rbmodel Santa Clarita Senior Portraits
Share with Friends & Family
It's a great way to start their day!
It was a really, really hot day here in Santa Clarita for Lauren's 2015 #rbmodel session…..but we braved the heat and the BUGS for these amazing shots!
Lauren is a joy to photograph — super easy-going, crazy photogenic, and up for anything {I covered her in glitter at the end of our shoot and I'm pretty sure she's still picking it out of her teeth}
It was soooooo fun, though. We started pretty natural and then threw on the flower crown I made for her — this is the first time I made one with lavender, and it was super cute on her. Plus, it smelled amazing
Seriously with those eyes…..
Jami did suuuuuch a phenomenal job on her makeup and hair! And I loved Lauren's dresses she chose for the session — great colors on her.
We had to get some of her with her guitar — and love that headband; soooooo 70′s.
We had way too much fun with the glitter and bubbles — I meant to post the aftermath pic on instagram, but totally forgot — the road was covered in glitter!
What a great day!!! Loved getting to know you and your mom, Lauren — you are just beautiful, inside and out
Here's a little more in the slideshow too:
It was a great summer with lots of amazing 2015 Seniors — and Fall Sessions are underway; I only have 3 sessions left for the rest of 2015.… but I do have my calendar open for January – April of 2015 – email me and I'll send you all the info on that!
