Orange County- San Clemente Newborn Session

 This shoot was really fun for me because it was in my studio and also outside at my home. I love being able to give my clients the option to come to me or do a location session. Also Hillary was visiting from out of state and an outdoor session with a newborn would have been a little difficult. I'm very happy with the way these all turned out. This little guy was such a trooper for dealing with his new surroundings and being "nakie" for most of the session. I always am a sucker for newborn shoots.

Family Session- San Juan Capistrano

Out in the open. 

I'm such a sucker for a Mama and her baby. These two are twins!

**Disclaimer: Sorry these pictures just don't turn out as vibrant on the web. When you click on the picture to make it bigger you can see that there is much more color and sharpness. 

Out in the Orchard

Are these kids adorable or what! 

I couldn't get over them and their cute little outfits.

Especially those little boys with the suits on.

Priceless.  

Enjoy!

Little G

This little girl is so amazing just like her sister Ella. I photographed Ella a few times when she was an infant, and now I'm lucky enough to come back and do another session with the two of them. These sweet girls are so special, I am amazed at how good natured they are. Gemma was so fun and happy which was remarkable considering she was recovering from eye surgery. I love working with great families, it's one of the many wonderful perks of the job.

Down to the Harbor

I love love loved this shoot.  

Every year we try to come up with something "different".

Reny totally nailed it. 

They love the beach, and kayaking has become one of their favorite things to do. So we headed down to the harbor to where they keep their kayak and shot there. 

It couldn't have been more perfect or more beautiful. I loved all the colors and different backdrops. 

 These pictures are too cute of Mommy and Daughter.

There are so many pictures to choose from so I only picked a few. I love working with this family each year for their Christmas pictures. They always keep me on my feet, and Reny is so creative it makes it really fun.

Light me up

It's Christmas time around here. 

My kids have helped me 

decorate the house 

and the tree.  

Now it's time to celebrate the Holiday season!

I am all booked up for the rest of the year

 and then some. 

Please don't be shy though, 

sometimes I have cancellations or openings. 

So email me if you're wanting something last minute. 

Happy Holidays. 

I will also be blogging here. 

Me Oh My

I recently took pictures for my sister in law, who just so happens to have one of the best blogs around. She featured a few pictures I took of her and my precious niece. 

Click here to check them out. 

I'm only posting a few because I don't want to ruin her Christmas Cards.

Love these! 

Check out me oh my for weekly inspiration.

Laguna Beach Family Session

 

Sometimes all you need is one picture to sum up a session. 

Love this shot.

Beachside in Oceanside

After a few weeks or so of emailing, cancellations, bad weather, and an ugly red tide we decided to take a chance and just go for it. The weather was perfect. It was the first non foggy late afternoon in what seemed like forever, and the red tide wasn't too bad at all. I'm glad we finally got together, and I love how this family's pictures turned out. I loved their Nautical attire. Too cute. Only a few as to not ruin any possible christmas pictures.

In the Belly...

 Baby S is on the way or should be soon. These two love birds are certainly ready for their long awaited baby "S". He's one lucky little man. I'm so excited for them and hope I get to meet him when he's born... maybe for a Newborn Session :)

Good Luck K!

D + M

Another Mini Session success. This family is one of my favorites. So easy to shoot and fun to hang out with. The kids didn't really want their pictures taken so I took a "life style" approach to this shoot. Not too many pictures sitting and smiling. Just tons of them being a family and loving on each other. I also got to meet their newest addition, who is fitting in just perfectly. I love the last shot of him and his Dad. Too sweet.
