Charlotte turns TWO!

I love photographing kids as they grow up and reach their milestones.  I first photographed Charlotte just weeks old, and now she’s the big TWO! I don’t think they will be “terrible” at all…  She’s an angel.
This session was a great example of how you can get beautiful toddler portraits, when Mom and Dad approach...

Christmas Eve ~ Family Photos in La Jolla

If you follow my blog, you’ll remember Rachel’s maternity session at La Jolla Shores just a few weeks back.  Now Miss Olivia is here! We celebrated with a family portrait session at a La Jolla park while all the grandparents were visiting for the holidays.  Olivia was a trooper – with a full hour for...

I love the chemistry in this family, and how easy they are to be around….
And I love that these portraits can show it to you. XO

Their yard doesn’t have much of a view, but we made the best of it. ;-)

family in pb

I love watching families grow up.  These were from a recent session with clients I have been photographing over the years.  One of their earlier portraits is such a favorite of mine, that I used it as the title image for my Families gallery (on the main web site).  :-)  If you have the password,...

mini-session: ethan

Had an impromptu mini-session with my son, today.  He wasn’t a fan of taking pictures when he was little, but now that he’s 8 1/2, he’s directing the shots…  ”Hey, Mom, try this one! How about this one?!” :-)
I basically sat him in good light, and he just cracked himself up. :-)  More images to...
