Girls Day Out
This weekend Kristi and I got to get out and shoot all day . It was the funnest day I have had in a while. Log Cabin for lunch, parks, pictures and Sonic drink later on, plus more laughter than we could handle at some points. Thanks for a great birthday Kristi!










Sometimes we have too much fun together.....




Childhood memories...if we had only known then!

Who is she?

My name- Crystal A. Garcia
My hometown- I moved around a lot, San Diego, Seattle...But I call Ruston, Louisiana "home."
My style- Fun and revealing.

If not a photographer I would have been a... Well since photography is not a business for me its a hobby, this question doesn't apply. However for your info I want to be a MOM!

My strength in my profession is... I laugh a lot!

My weakness in my profession is... wanting to give everyone everything they want.

A vendor you should know about... WWW.Brennphotography.com And CinematicBride.com


Something that is overrated in my industry... Digital editing-Do it right first, and stop covering up the uniqueness that makes people who they are!

3 things I bring with me on every shoot... My camera, a random fun object or jewelry, and a rag or Kleenex, you never know what I might need this for!

Where I get my inspiration from...Everywhere, especially Jenn Kilpatrick of Brennphotography.com. Ever since she shot my wedding and I saw this pictures I have fallen in love with photography!

At 2 P.M everyday you can usually find me... checking my email and doing homework.

Something I'm still learning... Photoshop

One thing I can't part with... My camera, duh.

3 things you'll find in my purse... Arbonne Foundation, my Razor phone that makes me feel way more trendy that I actually am, and pictures that I either need to give people or ones that I want to show my friends.

Something that bores me... people that complain too much.

Something on my Christmas list... a gift card to B and H, an underwater camera, a pivoting flash, a flush mount album of my wedding, and a diamond ring!

Something you'll always find in my refrigerator...Sweet team and soy milk.

The first thing I do when I wake up in the morning...hit snooze and kiss Brian before telling him to get up.

One thing I am going to do this winter... decorate every square inch of my home for Christmas and go on a trip to play in the snow.

My snack at the movies...Sour Patch Kids

My best feature...My ability to make you feel like your butt is small.

What a Day
Last night and today were not great days for me. I had tons to do but I was extremely sick! And to top that off my kitten Cali got stuck in a tree. She was about 30 feet up in a pine tree with no branches between the one she was on and the ground. Our neighbors were nice enough to call one of their friends that had a ladder and climb up the tree and get her because apparently the fire department will no longer save kittens. As far as everything else, well I manage to just barely get my homework assignments in and that was about it! Hopefully tomorrow will be much more productive.

This is Cali after being rescue and then getting a bath since she wasn't smelling that great after spending all night outdoors.

Some Old Stuff
At the end of this past summer my Junior High small group got together for a swim party. They girls keep asking me about these pictures and I keep forgeting to get them printed for the youth room. Here are a few of them. We had tons of fun, as you can tell!

I Heart These Kids
Last week I was privileged enough to get to watch some of my favorite children while their mom went out to a meeting. We went to the park and got to play for a little while before it started raining. Once the rain hit we went under a shelter for a picnic lunch. Here's a glimpse into our day.
