Kids: Hawkes



These cuties are my cousins kids and we were just hanging around while the kids were playing outside and I thought I would take a few shots of them. 



Thanksgiving Weekend: Clinger Family



Oh how I wish I could have taken more of these kids they are too darn cute and photogenic.  1st photo is of Spencer and his mom Lisa, this was a great moment that I did not want to miss. Getting all 3 to sit still and smile was a bit challenging but we managed to capture 1 decent one With the light quickly going we had a limited time but I worked with what I had.. The girls were so adorable posing for every shot ready for their close up they will appreciate these when they get older.




Family Portrait- Hodge Family


This is the Hodge Family, we met up in Thousand Oaks in the morning and got to this location before it got too busy there. Apparently this is a popular place to shoot and there were 2 other photographers there and a big soccer team. But we managed to capture a few great shots of the kids and the family. They were a lot fun to work with, Glen the oldest son was such a model in all his shots.... talk about a natural. 









Senior Portrait- Trevor


The weekend before Thanksgiving was busy for me I had two photo shoots in one day, I had the opportunity to take senior portraits for Trevor in the afternoon. It is always a little awkward at first to be the only one in the shot but he was great and quickly warmed up and we had a great time!








Ryan- 8 Months Old





This beautiful little girl is Ryan and she is one of my favorites to photograph. She has this little red  rocking chair that was passed on from other generations and is over 100 years old, so we had to photograph her on it with her new dress.

Halloween Approaching: My Boys

With Halloween approaching this week my boys get ready to celebrate it with friends last night at a Harvest Festival. They had no problem putting all that makeup on their faces, I was very surprised at that too. Before we had the makeup applied they had a great time singing and dancing with their guitars. Too Cute, everyday they amaze me with all the fun things they like to do to keep themselves amused.

Children Session: Jack & Bella

Sunday Jack and Bella came out to get their photos done for their Holiday Greeting cards. They were full of energy and lots of spunk! Kids can be challenging but it is all worth it in the end when you get some great shots of them having a fun time. It is asking a lot of them to sit and smile and look at the camera all at the same time. But we managed to get through it and capture their fun loving personalities!








Family Photo Shoot: Paredes Family


Saturday was another photo shoot day for me and I had the chance to do photos for the Paredes Family. They were all so easy to work with and needed very little direction. The two girls are too cute for words. I could have photographed them all day. So many personalities came out at this shoot and I tried to capture each of those in every image.













Wedding Reception: Tiffany & Richard

So this last weekend has been surprisingly busy for me and I really liked that a lot.  On Friday I was able to take photo's for Tiffany and Richard's wedding reception. They  had gotten married on a romantic cruise to Mexico last week so they wanted some fun shots of them with their close friends and family at the reception. Everyone really looked like they had a great time! And Tiffany looked beautiful!
