I LOVE this family! When I first started to identify I’d like to do more with this photography thing, I emailed several of my friends letting them know I’d like additional experience. Kim contacted me and my very first job was shooting Madison’s baptism. Since then, I’ve shot several of their family photo sessions and my husband and I are also great friends with Kim and Corey. Coincidentally, they also grew up in Michigan so we have a lot in common. This session was so much fun, I just don’t think the kids could get any cuter!

Ann Marie, Eddie & JulietteDecember 6th, 2011I am so lucky to be able to capture families as the kids grow! I took pictures of Juliette when she was a newborn, and I’m happy to say she’s just as sweet and adorable now as she was then!

I am so lucky to be able to capture families as the kids grow! I took pictures of Juliette when she was a newborn, and I’m happy to say she’s just as sweet and adorable now as she was then! I took pictures of Ann Marie, Eddie, and Juliette in a fun family session last weekend in Irvine. The great thing about working with kids is they’re unpredictable. You might think that’s a downside, but in order to keep them engaged, you have to keep changing things around, which makes for really fun pictures! Thanks for a great session, guys!
How beautiful is Juliette?



I love her face in this one! Looking to mama for reassurance :)

Lucy, Russ, Grant & AlecNovember 12th, 2011It’s been almost a year since I’ve seen this family! It’s amazing how much Grant and Alec have grown in that time. This shoot ALMOST didn’t happen in the rain, but Lucy was able to come up with a great back-up location ;) Enjoy! |
Karen, Dominic & Sydney: Irvine Family SessionNovember 7th, 2011One of the great joys of being a photographer is seeing families again as the kids grow! I shot Sydney’s newborn pictures in May, and it was so wonderful to see this sweet, happy baby again – and of course to see Karen and Dominic! They are so easy going and kind that sessions with [...] |

I love a little mistletoe!
Hee hee. Vanessa and Don weren’t sure if Myles would like hanging upside-down, but he seemed to enjoy it!

Tameka + Princess: Huntington Beach Mother Daughter SessionOctober 7th, 2011A mother daughter session in Huntington Beach? Where do I sign? I’ve known Tameka for a few years now, and she’s just one of those people who bubbles over with life and personality. So I couldn’t wait to meet Princess, and of course she was as fun and sweet as I had anticipated. Thanks for [...] |

I love creating the “sports shot!” Chris had a ton of sports equipment ready to go. Looks like this little guy is going to have a lot of options!

How cute are these little cleats?
Let’s not forget about the rest of the family! Natasha + Chris say Dexter is very protective of Hank!

Victor, Maggie, Daniel & David: Long Beach Family SessionSeptember 26th, 2011Boy, I hit the jackpot with this family! We’ve actually known them for awhile – my husband and Victor went to school together, but didn’t figure out they were both living in California until a couple of years ago!

Boy, I hit the jackpot with this family! We’ve actually known them for awhile – my husband and Victor went to school together, but didn’t figure out they were both living in California until a couple of years ago! Victor + Maggie are two of the sweetest people we know, and it sure looks like their adorable boys are following suit! They recently welcomed a new baby boy to their family and I was honored to capture David and the rest of the family!
Here’s the newest addition! He didn’t want to sleep, but I think the cute expressions captured were well worth it!



He’s already perfected the side-eye. Kids these days, they grow up so fast! ;)
I call this one, “Lemme out of the picture!”
Daniel was NOT afraid of the camera, if you can’t tell…;)







One of my favorites…just keepin’ it real! :) Thanks for a fantastic shoot, guys!

I just love repeat clients! Especially those with kids ;) I can’t believe it’s been almost a year since their last session! My, how these kids have grown!
Here’s Jackson:
They really are the SWEETEST! The entire family here:
I told Liz that she needs to be a professional family dresser ;) I love how coordinated they look without being too matchy-matchy!
Liz and Bill with the kiddos!
Liz brought some balloons in honor of Jackson’s first birthday! I love me some props! :)





I think this MIGHT be my favorite shot of a toddler ever! SO cute! :)
I always get one of mom and dad :) They earn it after working with the kids the entire shoot!
I have to end with this sweet picture of Delilah giving Jackson a kiss!
