The R Family {Claremont, CA Family Photographer}

I know I have said time and time again that I have photogenic clients. This family is up there with the top! I went to High School with Brianne. Let me tell you she was gorgeous back then and it still stunning now! (Hello! Jealous!!). Her little girl has amazing eyes! The catch-lights in each image were awesome! I can't wait to photograph this family again!! :)

5 Little Monkeys {Inland Empire Family & Children Photography}

 My good friend Mandy contacted me about photographing the grandchildren for her parents. I was definitely up for the challenge. These kids kept me on my toes! In fact, they made all of us work. BUT in the end we still got some great images!

At the end, I did a little mini-session with this little guy and his parents. LOVE his curly blonde hair!

The F Family {Long Beach, CA Family Photography}

I just adore this family and every time I photograph them I have fun. The boys are so so cute and the older (Little P) is such a character! We had some great convos about turtles!

We headed out to El Dorado Park in Long Beach for their Holiday session. I was supposed to rain but it ended up being quite sunny (though the rain did  come later the night!) so it was a perfect morning. There were a lot of ducks and geese there but we managed to steer clear!

They brought along their nieces to get in some grandkid pics for the family! Such beautiful girls!

Baby's First Christmas {Inland Empire Family Photographer}

There is nothing more exciting about the holidays then when it's your child's first season! Sure they have no clue what's going on but that doesn't make it any less fun for the parents!!

This gorgeous family are really good friends of ours and I truly enjoy photographing them. They really make my job easy. Their son is just as cute as he can be! Merry Christmas Baby G!!

Spaghetti Smiles {Inland Empire Family Photographer}

One of the biggest challenges with photographing children, especially between the ages of 18-24 months, is how to get them to give you a big REAL smile. I think any photographer can attest to this. However, with little K all it took was a simple "spaghetti" dance. You may be thinking "what is a spaghetti dance?" well that's a very good question. It was one of those things that come out of your brain in a millisecond and it happened to work!! All I had to do was dance around saying "spaghetti" and K would give me a huge teethy grin! It was adorable.

Here is some images from this fantastic Spaghetti dancing family session!!

Uh-oh.. the texting has begun! ;)

Mommy & Son {Los Angeles Family Photography}

I have photographed these two before and though the mom wouldn't believe me, these two are SO easy to photograph. I don't know what it is about them but they are so photogenic and I always end up loving every photo I take of them. Of course it helps that Mom is stunningly beautiful and C is just as handsome as they come for 4 year olds!!

We went to my favorite blue door location! This time I played a little more with the blues in the door just to give it a bright and rich pop.

C is way too cute!! Check out his jump!
