I think my absolute favorite sort of session is a family session like this – where we take a few “posed” family shots for the wall -but then just capture life as it happens and the beautiful relationships that exist in families. We let the good times roll and photograph them as they happen! The…
I have been photographing this beautiful family since the middle child was a baby…and before adorable boy #3 came along! It’s been so much fun to watch them grow up! I have loved all of my sessions with this family, but I think that this mini session we did this year at Irvine Regional Park…
As the busiest time of year for us photographers heats up, it’s harder and harder to stay on top of all of the editing, posting, marketing and other chores and sometime the blog is the first thing to go! But I love posting those sneak peeks and I’m going to try to do better to…
I was driving home from a long trip out to the desert when I got the call: a lovely couple wanted to know if I could shoot their wedding – the following weekend. Unfortunately I was already booked shooting my husband’s high school reunion. But then they asked if they could have some engagement photos…
The tradition continues – and it keeps getting bigger and better in every way! The Gibbs family has been coming to me every summer since 2008 or 2009 all the way from Ohio for their family portraits on Orange County’s beautiful shores. With the exception of last year – but that was for a great…
I wasn’t really looking forward to this session. It was 112 degrees outside when I arrived to photograph this brand new baby and his four older siblings. I was drenched in sweat by the time I had loaded my equipment into the house. And yet I think this has to be one of my favorite…
A friend of mine has some absolutely beautiful cats that had kittens this summer. When I heard the news I just knew I had to bring my kidlets by …they all love kittens, but nothing like my youngest who absolutely adores them and has asked for one of her very own for every birthday and…
These beautiful girls were visiting from out of state for a softball tournament and thought it would be fun to have their Senior Portraits taken together here with the lovely scenery in Laguna Beach. We met at Heisler Park where we could start with a park-like setting and ended up down on the beach at…
The Cullimore family came to visit from all over and what a fun family to photograph! The morning of their session I woke up looking forward to meeting this large group and felt great. By 10:30 am however I started feeling ill…and by noon I had a fever of 102.6 and could hardly move. I…
Maggie has been one of my most charming and photogenic clients for a while now – well her entire family has been. But this was Maggie’s day to shine and shine she did! She is so excited and ready for her baptism next month, and she looked pretty angelic in her beautiful new dress and…
This session has been a long time in coming. This family was gifted a session by grandma a few years ago and they didn’t cash in on it right away because mom just felt that her family was not quite complete. Lo and behold, a year or two later sweet little Tessie showed up! Check…
This lucky dad is a good friend of my amazing assistant of many years. He wanted to take advantage of having his three girls to visit for the summer and capture some memories of them before they’re all grown up. I was thrilled to have such gorgeous and easy-going subjects. They made for a fun…
