After we were done taking photos at the park, we came back to Juliet’s home to get some photos of her first try at cake – a birthday cake in this case – in her very own bedroom. Juliet wasn’t sure at first, but once she dug in was pretty enthusiastic about the cake. Even…
Marci is a friend of mine, who I didn’t know all that well in High School, but have gotten to know better on Facebook. I’ve always thought that she had the loveliest family, and was super excited when she asked me to come out to take photos of her darling daughter Juliet for her first…
This is a follow up post to family portrait taken of my friend Jason and his lovely family in Red Rock Canyon, Nevada, shown here! Because it was so cold and windy that day, I set up a tiny little portrait studio in their hotel room early the next morning. Little Eliza was still running on…
I’ve known most of these kids since they were teeny tiny babies – I have photos of the oldest boy and my middle daughter together when they were two…and now they are in the same class at school! Mom wanted to do a secret, surprise session to surprise dad with some neat images for Father’s…
They’re back! One of my most popular sessions of the year – the Valentine minis. Valentine’s Day is less than a month away! Take advantage of these mini session specials to make a meaningful gift for your significant other, capture a beautiful portrait of your child – and have some super unique and creative Valentine’s…
..That’s what little boys are made of ! And this little boy was all boy! It was a very documentary style session – mostly following little “D” around as he chased the sun, played with sticks, dug in the dirt, brandished a cat tail, and loved on his dad. I’m lucky I’ve got some quick…
This session felt jinxed from the beginning. Having had to be rescheduled due to bad weather, we made a second go at it last Thursday! This sweet family wanted to do photos at Crystal Cove State Park because they live right there in Newport Coast. But there wasn’t enough time to properly submit for a…
Here’s the same couple from the last post with Shane’s sweet daughter Skylar! Can’t you just feel the love?
Can you tell that these folks really love each other… and they love to play… a lot? All of my favorite images from this session were the ones where they were interacting, playing, loving each other and enjoying their visit to the beach…not posing. Hugs, tickles, ring-around-the-rosies, chasing waves…of course the fun and games all…
I believe. I believe in the spirit of Christmas. I believe in the love that binds families together. I believe the spirit of a child and the beauty of relationships can be captured in 1/500 of a second. And this family has more than enough love to go around. I have been photographing them for…
I was so excited when my good friend and roommate from BYU came down to visit California with her family! I knew I had to find time to see them in my busy schedule, and since my kids love to go to the beach, and her family wanted to go, we decided to meet at…
Here are some more of the family mini sessions from earlier this month at the mission San Juan Capistrano. This fun family mini session was a couples, maternity, children’s and family portrait session all rolled into one mini ! The biggest challenge was the adorable baby who didn’t want to leave her stroller. Mom used…
