Siblings | South Bay Family Photographer

It's been a while! Last month, I had the pleasure to spending some time with a dear friend and her siblings to grab some sweet shots of them together for their parent's Christmas gift. As an only child, I love spending time with siblings who love each other and enjoy being around one another- it is a connection I never had, but that I appreciate so much!

We spent some time down by the beach and at the park- I love these guys!

Almost 2 | Mission Viejo Child Photographer

After the initial panic set in that my daughter is, indeed, turning two in a little over a month and that I really to needed to get on the ball as far as party planning, I realized that it meant I needed a great picture for her invitation. Enter, pink pettiskirt from ChicBabyRose on etsy.com! L-O-V-E.

Patiently Waiting | Mission Viejo Maternity Photography

My sweet friend S was such a good sport and responded to my casting call for a maternity model! She and I had our daughters a few weeks apart, and now she is patiently (or not so patiently, ha!) expecting a little boy!

At 38 weeks, she was perfectly radiant! Thanks for coming out with me, S! I can't wait to meet Baby #2 (and learn his name!!!)... I'm sending some labor dust in your direction ;-)

10 Months Old | South Bay Baby Photography

Through the magic of Facebook, I reconnected with an old friend from way back in middle school. As it turns out, this friend has one of the most precious 10-month olds I've ever seen! I was thrilled to meet up with Baby K's mommy after all these years to get some shots of gorgeous miss K!

B- it was so fun seeing you again and meeting your family!

Sweet Baby Isla | Orange County Newborn Photography

After having the pleasure of doing some maternity photos for J at the end of last month, it was so exciting to come photograph her new addition to the family- beautiful little Isla!

She was such a sweet little princess... didn't want to miss a minute of the action, but we still managed to get a couple of sleepy shots! Thanks for sharing your precious little girl, J- she is amazing!

G + T = Married! | South Bay Wedding Photography

A few weeks ago I had that awesome opportunity to tag along as a third shooter for G&T's wedding in Torrance, CA. It was definitely a learning experience, and I am so thankful for being given the chance! Here is a little sample from the day! Congrats, G & T!
