Simi Valley Senior Portrait Session- Cori

2012-02-07T22:47:00.000-08:00

This winter break we had a fun little Senior Portrait session with Cori. She has the most stunning blue eyes. I love the variety of expressions that she portrayed as well. I really enjoy photographing seniors and capturing images that are way beyond the typical studio portrait.

2012-02-07T22:38:00.000-08:00

So I had the opportunity a few months back to photograph a few dresses and skirts for Oli and Liv.
Now that I am not super busy it's about time to post these images for Megan Neilson to share her talent. I know how much time can put into making these pieces and she added some really fun personality to each item. Check out her recent items on www.faceboook.com/oliandliv

California is great this time of year, (december) the beaches are so pretty and it really was not cold at all. The girls loved exploring the bridges, tall grasses and beach. We saw lots of birds fly over and I was able to get some fun shots of them super excited to see that.

Family is everything and I really enjoy family sessions. I feel so honored to be asked to photograph a family and their love together. Capturing the emotions between the children and their parents is so priceless and there is no better to way to hold onto those memories than thru a photo.

This ones an oldie but a goodie for sure, this is the first time the kids had professional photos done. And I thought they were pretty good. The boys were super excited to explore any chance they could get. And sweet Pepper was all ready for her close up.

South Pasadena Childrens Photography: Cousins

2012-01-06T11:51:00.000-08:00

I just love photographing at this place, it has so much to offer. But unfortunately they do not allow "us" photographers there. We almost got shut down but I may have told a little white lie to keep it going... So glad it worked out in the end. These little cuties are all cousins and they wanted photos done for Christmas presents. So now that has passed I can post these online.

Pasadena Photography: Peterson Family

2012-01-06T11:33:00.000-08:00

We met in Old Town Pasadena on a brisk Saturday morning. We just missed the rain and got some really fun family shots. I just love this family, they are so sweet and photogenic. The kids really have a great connection with each other.

Santa Monica Wedding Photography

2012-01-05T10:05:00.000-08:00

This last year has brought me many new clients and opportunities to photograph some really fun people. This was one of many that I'd like to share. Christina and Chang came all the way from Colorado to be wed in beautiful Sunny California. The day started off with a sweet ceremony on the bluffs of Santa Monica overlooking the Ocean. Then we broke away and adventured off down to the beach. The pier brought many onlookers to the newly wed couple but they had a blast and so did I.

Busy, Busy, Busy!

2011-12-18T19:24:00.000-08:00

I've been busily editing all the recent weddings and photo sessions... Im far behind on updating the blog. But here are a few from last month. Sweet baby AJ.

2011-10-29T15:49:00.000-07:00

Tricycles, bubbles, Toy Cars and more...this was a play date that only kids would love. And it was play date with ME. We had a really fun time exploring and just having fun. These two sweet boys were wonderful to work with and they loved all the fun things we had and I captured them in the middle of it all.

Newborn Photography Ventura County: Bradley

2011-10-21T15:38:00.000-07:00

This little peanut is barely a week new. He was such a joy to photograph. So at peace and when I held him he just melted in my arms. The first part of the session was just Bradley then we ventured in the backyard to get some family shots where Older sister Ryan could show some love for him. There is truly nothing more precious than seeing older siblings show their love for the new brother or sister.

Family Photographer Ventura County: Lapraik

2011-10-21T15:28:00.000-07:00

Family session's are fun to do, you get to play with the kids and capture moments of the kids with their parents. Timeless memories that everyone should have. Some of the best moments are in the comfort of your own backyard. Jonathan had a great time climbing and exploring all the new things I brought for the photos. We played ball, he read his favorite book with his parents and being thrown in the air was one is favorite things to do.

Engagement Photography Ventura County: Dylan & Lindsey

Family Photography Ventura County: Jennings

2011-06-03T20:19:00.000-07:00

I just love this time of year shooting in the hills with the warm sunlight from the sunset. What better place to read your child's favorite book than in the rolling hills amongst the tall weeds.
We had some good times capturing them just enjoying each other...

Senior Photography Ventura County: Lauren

2011-06-03T20:05:00.000-07:00

Family Session:Gluck

2011-04-09T20:57:00.000-07:00

This session was from a few months back and thought I'd share a few. This family is a lot of fun and they are all so sweet. I always love being able to shoot their family portraits each year. This time was a little different, they had their newest 4 legged friend join in some of the shots.
Lately it seems that a lot of families want to include their dogs. And I like a good challenge some times.

Family: Gouso

2011-03-22T21:03:00.000-07:00

This session is a continuation from Tahliah's newborn session. Once again many images I love and want to share lots of them. There is just something that I love about capturing new parents with their newborns. So much love for this baby girl..

She's 3 and mama is having a baby boy!

2011-03-22T20:46:00.000-07:00

How many is too many when it comes to posting images?? All I know is that I could not narrow these ones down to just a few. So enjoy my 20 plus images of this fun and fabulous photo session of Ryan and her mama who is prego with her first baby boy! Oh and Ryan just turned 3, amazing how time has flown by with this little gal. She was a joy to photograph this day, with her fun and spunky personality.

Newborn: Tahliah Elyse

2011-03-22T15:45:00.000-07:00

This little beauty is my newest niece Tahliah. A few weeks prior I took prego photos of her mommy and daddy. Tahliah decided to come a few weeks early and was a tiny 5 lbs 6 oz. Here she is just a few days old and so so sweet. She was so great to work with, and her daddy was very helpful in keeping her warm and happy so we could get some really fun shots of her. I really went crazy and have lots and lots of images to show. Enjoy!

Newborn: Noah

2011-03-22T15:31:00.000-07:00

Big Sister Maggie, getting in on the action while baby brother eats a little snack... She was adorable with this little baby doll, feeding and dancing with her.

Preggers!

2011-03-22T15:08:00.000-07:00

Wedding: Marlow- Santa Monica Pier

2011-02-09T21:27:00.000-08:00

Since my lovely website is still not updated, I wanted to post a lot of my favorites from the Marlow Wedding. These shots were taken at the Santa Monica Pier after they got married. We had a lot of fun getting some shots of them hanging out on the beach. They got a lot of attention from the on lookers that day.
This beautiful bride was stunning and a joy to work with. Just a natural in every shot. This is what I love about my job, capturing some amazing images that last a lifetime.

Wedding: Patricia & Danny

2011-02-03T20:09:00.000-08:00

The floral arrangements were created and designed by Ruth Gulden with Petals Floral Design.

Newborn: Ella- SNEAK PEAK....

2011-02-02T16:41:00.000-08:00

Monday I had a great time photographing sweet Ella, here is just a sneak peak of what I did.

Children: Maggie & Presley

2011-01-08T21:06:00.000-08:00

These two cuties are all smiles. This was a unique session that was held in my garage due the down pour of rain. I must say that I had a nice little setup for this one, heater, blankets and good company. Maggie was recently featured in my newborn blog. Now look at her all grown up. Presley is her cousin and they had a fun time doing photos for their grandparents.

Newborn: Brady

2011-01-08T16:42:00.000-08:00

Recently I had the pleasure of photographing little Brady.

Here he is about 3 weeks old and absolutely adorable.

Thank You Holly and Bret for having me capture some priceless images of your newest addition.

A new location that I love..

2011-01-03T22:48:00.000-08:00

Remember the days when life was so simple and all you cared about were the little things...

Like playing in a grove of trees in the dessert in freezing temperatures while collecting sticks.

This is Sophia, the absolute joy of my life. Her priceless smirky smile brings me back to reality and what life is really about.

On our way back from our New Years vacation, I discovered this new spot. It's a bit far from home but worth stopping for to capture a few shots.

Family: West

2010-12-29T20:44:00.000-08:00

This was a perfect day for a photo session. The weather took a break for a bit to allow us to enjoy the beauty at the beach.
Little Trey was all smiles and adorable as ever and as cold as it was baby Joshua peacefully slept in his mama's arms.

Children: Peterson

2010-12-04T12:42:00.000-08:00

Cold, Windy and more wind. This session was a challenge to work against the elements of the weather. But the Kids were SO GREAT, so photogenic and barely affected by the weather. Their eyes are so beautiful and they were so natural at just hanging out and looking good. It was a fun time capturing them all together.

Family: Gonzalez

2010-12-04T10:52:00.000-08:00

Another fun shoot with my dear friends.. so many amazing shots to choose from made it really difficult to show just a few.

Family: Gulden

2010-12-03T17:24:00.000-08:00

Can we say freezing.... that is how it felt the day we shot these images. But it sure was good times getting together with my brother and his little family. Sara was full of energy as always but instead of running away from the camera she was posing and ready for every shot.

Family: Anderson

2010-12-03T14:14:00.000-08:00

This session was filled with fun, snacks, tears of sadness and lots of love! Matt and Laura were so very patient with little Mia who just wanted to be free and explore. Apparently18 month old toddlers do not like to be told what to do. My little almost 2 year old is exactly the same way, Fiesty! These two girls are quite the duo together.
But when is all is said and done I really love the images that I was able to capture of them all together.

Family: Fran & Anthony Piscitello

2010-11-16T18:38:00.000-08:00

Last weekend we experienced a new territory.....Downtown Lake Elsinore. This place was a perfect fit for what we wanted to achieve. Lots of great textures, colors and low key for the kids to run and be safe.
A party of 6 is always a challenge, but I managed to capture some priceless moments. I Love you Fran, Anth & Fam!! Another memorable photo session.

Don't be sad, there is still time...

2010-11-12T21:58:00.000-08:00

And the weather called for rain... with our luck it was a perfect day at the Santa Monica Pier. I have never experienced the water being so far out. We had a fun time playing in the sand, exploring the sand creatures and getting muddy and wet. Little Ryan was quite the explorer. We went under the pier and found lots of huge starfish stuck to the pier and also just laying on the sand. I have never seen so many at one time in one place. Then we found some free balloons and decided to add them into some of the photos. Ryan was amused by them for sure and that kept her busy for a while. Good Times!!

Family: Gourley

2010-11-12T21:18:00.000-08:00

This happy as can be little girl is Gianna. She was adorable and so sweet to photograph. Her big brown eyes are amazing. Our last session together was when she was still in her mama's belly and then a newborn. I really enjoy being able to photograph families as they grow and see all the changes that happen over time.

Newborn: Charolette

2010-11-12T20:59:00.000-08:00

This little doll is Charolette, She was gem to work with. So peaceful and innocent, I adore this stage in their life.

2010-11-07T08:11:00.000-08:00

A slideshow of some of my favorites..

We had a blast meeting up yesterday and shooting some creative images of Sarah with some of her favorite things. Sarah is really into cooking up new things so we thought it would fun to include some of that into her photos. She also has a passion for Anne of Green Gables, and how perfect is the setting with the big white house.

Lots of outfit choices that she brought made it so fun and we could have been shooting for at least another hour. Thanks Dawn and Sarah for a great time.

Calling ALL High School Seniors!

I love this family, they are so fun and they all get along so well. I used to watch these two sweet girls when they were 2-3 years old. They have grown up soo fast. I look forward to our future photo shoots together. Thank You Pettit Family for having me photograph you all.

Newborn: Jack Lawson

2010-10-20T20:59:00.000-07:00

This tiny little guy is about 5 weeks old here and a whole lot of adorable.

I absolutely love, love, love newborn shoots. This one was one of my favorites, they had peaceful music going and he was so calm and relaxed the whole time. Thanks Natasha & Nick for having me photograph your handsome little guy.

Family Session: Hernandez

2010-10-18T15:09:00.000-07:00

I found a new fun location this last weekend and its close to home. I love the lemon orchard that we shot in on Saturday. The cloudy day played in our favor for some cool weather and great shots.

These two cuties were a joy to work with, so handsome too.

I love when I am able to capture the family and their personalities together. They all worked so well with each other and were relaxed during the whole shoot.

Children: Sophia
