Singleton Family

Orange County Family Photographer

LOVE this family. The three girls are all grown up (the youngest is graduating this year) and they are all home for Christmas. They came from Boston and San Diego and I couldn't say how happy they all seem to have some family time together. For the first time I used a new "hug" technique. Since there were no toddlers, my "fake laugh" technique and "tickle" technique seemed just a little silly. But.... this new found family hug seems to loosen everyone up and made for the most natural fun happy family photos. Thank you so much Singleton Family for inviting me to capture your happy smiles and this great moment in your lives.

Gotta love a photoshoot with Lorence! Just as almost every time I've done Lo's pictures, he takes a good 20 minutes to warm up to me. More this time than ever, we got to PLAY! we did jumping frog, throwing rock, and a little dancing. I love doing pictures for Lorence and Marygrace. I cant wait until our next photoshoot!

Fun Family Pictures

I know that for parents, family photoshoots are hard. I try my best to make them fun, but sometimes kids have another plan. Sometimes, they HATE the camera. Sometimes they refuse to sit, sometimes they try to run into the street. =) I think that this shoot was the epitome of the obstacles of doing photoshoots with toddlers. Personally, I think that it really captures the kids at this age. A few years from now, you might look back and think, "man.... that was difficult, but look how cute they are." We remember the good things. Sure, Gavin didnt want to smile, but when we put that hat on him, he was SO cute! Oh, and Declan almost ran onto Mission Blvd, but he sure did love wrestling with daddy. =) It captures your family just as it is. A round of applause for mom for ignoring the normally "unacceptable" behavior and still being happy for the family pictures!! I know how you feel Britteny.

Everyday I count my blessing for the amazing people in my life. Not the things, though I'm very blessed with a "comfortable" lifestyle, but I really really appreciate my family and friends. First, we'll start with my family. I have the most amazing husband who has worked so hard for us and supported me in my career and building my business. I get to raise our kids AND do what I love, but not without him. I have 3 amazing, beautiful, smart, important and kind children that I cannot even start to put into words my love for them. Then I have my parents and brother who are always there for me and I'm happy to say we see eachother at least every week. And dont forget my in -laws. I think I might be the luckiest girl in the world with the best in-law family to be found.

So, thats family, but there's also our friends. Since Nick and I got married, we've moved a few times and gone through a few friends, but within the last year or two, we've built some friendships that we know will last. This brings me to Kibby Family. Last year when Nick, moved to the haz mat station, he had a crew that made him happier than I've ever seen. Andrew Kibby was one of those guys that once we started hanging out as families, we just knew that we'd get along. I love this family and I'm so happy to see Kaytin as she grows up and cant wait to watch their family continue to grow.

The Perfect......

Riverside Family Photographer

Sometimes you start a photoshoot and you can just tell that its going to be the perfect photoshoot. Fun family, great kids, everyone is looking at the camera, and that oh so gorgeous family! The Hatch family one of 5 families that I did in one day at the same location. These were some mini photo sessions to help out some of those families that want a little more affordable option to still capture their growing family. I'm 3 families in, and its starting to get really cold and I see the Hatch family in their burnt orange outfits, not completely matching but looking JUST right. They had those outfits that I wish I could get my family to have, but I never seem to pull it off. Anyway, every factor for this shoot added up just right. Here are a few to enjoy!

{Steve & Krista} Many faces - Part 2

Part two of my many faces series. One of the biggest parts of my post processing is the "elimination" of the non-usable images. Its hard sometimes because though each image may not be that great, the series of these put together tell a fantastic story. Here's Steve and Krista and their silliness. =)

Here is a fun collection of Jazmine with her lolipop. She didnt really want to be a "diva" for the family photoshoot, but at the end of the shoot the kids got lolipops. Just a little sugar and Jazz came out of her shell. Love it!!

Westchester Infant Photographer

The Zychowski Family!!!! I love, love, love when a couple chooses to have me back time and time again to photograph their growing families. Jennifer and Jeff were referred to me by a mutual friend in San Diego. They were engaged and I was the lucky photographer that got to photograph their BEAUTIFUL wedding.... but first I did their Engagement pictures. We headed to a winery in temecula and had a day of fun.

Next, in 2008, the Zychowski Wedding. (looking back at old blogs really shows how much I've changed in my blogging.... hehe) Romantic, fun, different (loved the city) and BEFORE KIDS!! =)

... and then Whitney came. Late 2009, they had their first baby girl. Now, this was before I had a full set up for infant photography, and if I remember correctly, Whitney was already a few weeks old.

Just last week, they had their second baby girl. I headed to their home in Westchester (west LA... I'm not an LA person, so I can figure that some of my followers might not be either). Born October 18th, healthy and happy, she slept wonderfully for the entire photoshoot. Now, I had really, really hoped to get some good pictures of her and her big sister, but Whitney was really not a fan being close to Audrey. It will take some time for her to adjust to the new baby in the family. None, the less, it is astounding to be a part of this growing family and document their growth and changes and capture those memories that you never want to forget.

Thank you again to Jen & Jeff for including me in their family memories.

Rogers Family

Corona Family Photographer

This is the second year I've done the Rogers' family pictures. Do you remember last year's pictures. Maybe its just me, but the boys have grown up so much and Lori is looking like such a hot mama!!! Downtown Riverside was the perfect spot for them. The architecture and alleyways were perfect for this hip family. =) love you guys!!!
