Wendy & James (March 13, 2010)

Mia had so much fun photographing Wendy and James' wedding. Their wedding was beautiful and a perfect start to a new beginning. Wendy's friend gave a touching and soulful speech that truly moved everyone present. Thank you for braving the chilly temperatures and wind to get a few photographs outside. My favorites are the images with the Harley. Best wishes to both of you as you start your new life together! Please enjoy this 'sneak preview' collage.

Kari & Michael (October 31, 2009)

A special thanks to the wedding party for being so cooperative and allowing us to create precious memories. Thanks Father Dan for your great ideas and for allowing us photograph inside the seminary. We hope that Kari enjoys a wonderful surprise honeymoon that Michael planned. We cannot wait to hear where the two of your celebrated your honey.

In Memory of my Dad

My father, Mauricé Pauze was a great part of my life. He passed away on October 14^th, 2009 after a long battle with cancer. As a photographer himself, he inspired me to learn and perfect my craft. I remember when I was young, my dad transformed our kitchen into a darkroom. I loved to watch him process his film. He would expose the image to light for a few second and I watched with wide-eyes as the developer processed the image like magic.

Because of my father, photography has become a large part of my life. I cannot imagine going anywhere without my camera, just like my dad. My dad had a passion for photography until the end. Last summer he still had his camera in hand at our family reunion and my son's graduation party. I am forever grateful for what my dad has inspired me to do and the countless things he has done for me.

Photography lasts a lifetime and I am thankful to have photographed my father in March of this year. This image will be with me forever and reminds me of my loving father daily. I will always have fond memories of my father and his love for photography.

My father's battle with cancer has inspired me to help others deal with loss. I have started a program at the studio that provides a complimentary family session to those families who are struggling with a terminal illness. I am so grateful to have a portrait of my father before his battle took a turn for the worse.

Nicole & Joaquin (October 3, 2009)

Mary, Jerry and Daniel had so much fun photographing and video recording Nicole & Joaquin's wedding. The drive up to Mt. Calvary was beautiful and well worth the trip. The photographs at the park with the girls were fun and turned out great. The few minutes spent at the fountain provided excellent portraits of the two of you. Maximillian's provided an excellent Reception location and great food. We look forward to driving there again for a fish fry. Daniel also said that the dancing at the Reception was some of the best that he's ever recorded.
