This week I had the pleasure of delivering my most popular collection yet – The Heirloom Collection – to two amazing clients. This collection includes all of the images on disc with full reprinting rights, a 20×30 Canvas (or other ready to hang wall art) OR a $750 print credit, one keepsake item (either an…
This session was the second in a series of 4 sessions done for this family earlier this year – you can see the first session HERE! This time around some favorite aunts came to visit one of their favorite families who live rather far away in Singapore. I so enjoy watching all of the interactions…
It’s that time of the month again….contest time! I have so much fun entering contests when I get a moment…mostly because I quite enjoy seeing all of the other entries – they make for great inspiration! It also challenges me to find what I feel is my best work. I sometimes have a difficult time…
Normally I like to shoot as close to sunset as possible….but this family wanted to come and get their family pictures done and out of the way and then spend the day exploring and learning about the San Juan Capistrano Mission. And I learned that the light is pretty lovely there any time of day…
I just love when I get to post photos of my own kids. I always joke that my kids are the most photographed kids on the planet…but you’d never know it because sadly, so many of those images are buried in 3 TB hard drives and may never see the light of day. Photographs are…
This adorable family came all the way down from Northern California to visit Newport Beach last September! They were so relaxed and candid and fun with each other – I knew we would be in for some fun images! Mom’s of two year olds often worry that they won’t get any usable images because their…
I am more excited to share this sneak peek than I am for most …because these photos are of my amazing brother who is marrying a wonderful woman! We are all excited for their wedding coming up on January 11th. Having just planned my own wedding, I am having a lot of fun helping…
This ridiculously photogenic family has been a huge fan of the Duck Dynasty TV show since it’s inception. Long before it became popular in the mainstream…and mom had this fun and crazy idea to base their next photo session on the awesome show. A family of “Hunters” for years, it came very natural to them…
Two weeks ago tonight I had the pleasure of attending the Grand Opening Party at Alixandra Collections, a lovely high-end clothing and accessory boutique located in Newport Beach off of 17th Street and Irvine Ave. The party was fun, and you can see the photos from that event on the blog HERE. But I got…
I think extended family portraits have to be one of my favorites! I love when generations of families come to be together and then want to capture that special time to be remembered forever! There is always so much love and happiness! I have a lot of people ask me if I charge extra for…
I just love this family! I was so excited when they contacted me to let me know they would be visiting for the summer again from overseas. I think they are my clients that live the furthest from here (all the way in Singapore), yet I get to know them so very well as…
I have known Becca since…well, since she was born, really. And she has been by my side on countless adventures since that time – summer vacations and fall trips to Disneyland; Christmases and New Year’s celebrations; summer trips to Southern Utah together; EFY adventures and rooming together at BYU. And more recently she’s been there…
