I met Henry and Annie a few years back when the asked me to take some portraits of them with their new puppy, Charlie. You can see the adorable results of that session here. Fast forward two years, and their family has grown by one notably adorable little girl, Katie – who just turned one! Annie…
Little Baby “N” came into my Newport Beach studio at 5 weeks old and was not the sleepiest baby ever – in fact I don’t think we were able to get one “classic” newborn sleeping baby shot. But he was just so good! And check out those gorgeous “baby blues!” This was really more of…
Yet another post from my “Spring Session” with the “Y” Family. After our oh-so-fun Easter Egg Hunt, we proceeded to have more fun with the bikes and flowers! I’ve always wanted to do a themed shoot with some bicycles and Renee was more than happy to oblige me. And the Tunnel of Love at Sage…
So, my original plan was to blog these images last Saturday, just before Easter. Well, that was before my trusty steed, Pax, decided to dump me on my head and shoulder during a (rather eventful) Saturday morning themed photo session (apparently the voluminous folds of my old fashioned riding habit snagging on a bush and…
My how time flies! And how quickly our little ones grow! Seems like just yesterday I was taking Lily’s newborn portraits…and now she’s a rough and tumble toddler, charming all who cross her path! At times a little lady, but more often the tomboy who idolizes her big brother Tommy and follows his every footstep….
I have some other sessions I really should post before this one from this past week. But I know mama is anxious to see how some of these turned out. And although I haven’t even made one pass through all of the images from this session (which was really more like 4 sessions rolled…
Finally, one last blog post, dedicated to the birthday girls – honoring them and their family on their special day! It was such a pleasure to document you turning one year older this past year, and I look forward to celebrating many birthdays with you in the future!

Which means as long as we can dream, there will be unicorns.” –Bruce Coville What would a unicorn party be without, well… unicorns? Delightful ponies provided by Susan Remington at Pony Parties and horns provided by…
One of my favorite parts of this birthday party was the amazing face painting done by Amy at enchantedbrushstrokes.com! These were truly the most beautiful and intricate face paintings I had ever seen and they brought a fun splash of color onto every subjects face! My own children were so tickled to find that she…
What would a party be without one’s friends? One of my favorite part about covering birthday parties is capturing the relationship between the person being honored and their friends. And with kids it’s so much fun to capture whole gamut of expressions and experiences. For this post, I tried to show more of guests who…

Another must-have activity at a little kid’s birthday party – the pinata! Who knows how the tradition of beating some poor cardboard creature into releasing all of it’s candy stores became so popular with the 10 and under set, but it does seem to be a crowd pleaser every time. And I think even a…
