baby clare: 2 months

Posted in Uncategorized, orange county photographer, photography

i can’t believe it has been 2 1/2 years since I first started bringing my camera over to the Dunst house…

the little angels bring me there:)

every time I walk through their door, I can’t wait to see how she has changed and grown more and more beautiful as the month goes by…

tammy and brett make beautiful babies…

clare is 2 months old….

having a baby in your home is such a gift…i know life gets busy, and crazy, and the life of a momma of little ones is not easy by any means…

but truly…

having this kind of perfection in your life…even for the short amount of time that it is…

simply one of the best things we will ever know…

happy happy baby…

Kate loves to play my assistant out on these shoots…and since she was 2 1/2 here we documented her in a few of the images…

keep growing baby clare…I will see you soon…

xoxo

no such thing as grumpy baby :)

Posted in Uncategorized, children, families, orange county photographer, photography

i first met heather at my first photography workshop…she was among an amazing group of photographers…each of whom I was just delighted to get to know and spend the day with…
a few weeks after the workshop, her sister in law thought of the raddest gift for her for her birthday…a gift cert. for a session with me!
I was elated and so excited to get her and her gorgeous family in front of my camera…

you see…she is kinda sorta…well slightly…

beautiful…

’nuff said.

heather is a fabulous photographer…head over and check her out!

ok, her little warren is just about the cutest little baby boy I have ever laid eyes on…

i have a feeling that he is very very very well taken care of in this little family!

who doesn’t end a family session and swear their child did not smile one time for the camera?

Heather…I promised you…despite the cute little baby funk he was in, his near choking, and even puking on the photographer;)…

we got lots of joy outta your little guy…

(deep sigh) he is so darling…

I am sure he feel so comfortable and confident in this world…good on you for showing him love and goodness in the world…

i could have shot you two all week and on sunday!

you are so lucky to have each other…

and this little angel too…

(i love the way he is looking at you here)

enjoy the goodness you have been blessed with Heather…

give it back to the world:)

you and mark are so blessed!

give that little guy a kiss and a hug for me!

xoxo

just before they do…

Posted in Uncategorized, photography, weddings

these two were married just over a week ago…

and a few days before that…

this gorgeous bride-to-be put on her  beautiful gown…

and brought her handsome husband-to-be for a bride/groom session…

shelby knew she wanted to have some urban portraits of her wedding…she wanted lots of cool color to add some amazing texture to their collection of wedding images and memories…

i love that so much!

this location was so perfect for them…it showcased their fresh vibrant personalities and love for each other perfectly…

shelby…I can’t imagine how beautiful you were on your wedding day…

you are a stunning bride!!!

seriously gor-ge-ous!!!

this color combo is so so so pretty!

i think is my fav from the session…

downtown riverside has the coolest spots to shoot at…so so so amazing down there…

a little bonus was this amazing light that peeked through for a few minutes….love me some backlighting…

love me a random old cool car to hang out next to…i was hoping the owner would walk up so I could talk them into letting them get in the car for some…but no luck there…

you guys are so stinking cute together!

i was inspired to try something different with a hall of gorgeous chandeliers at the mission inn I spotted while waiting for shelby and josh…

i am so in love with the light that we found there…

shelby and josh…

I know your wedding day was beautiful!  I am sorry I could not make it to the event!  I am soooooo thankful you asked me to capture you guys in this time of your lives…

so many good things are coming…

enjoy each other!!

xoxo
