Taking a Break [Long Beach Maternity Photos]

I know it’s been awhile…and yes, I’m still alive!  I’m writing this post from the Internet Cafe in Stevensville, Montana.  It’s the place I go to get business done while I’m here visiting my family.  I always have to laugh about the slow pace of life here and how it really doesn’t seem to matter.
We’ve [...]

Summer [By the Lake] Orange County Child Photography

Time for my next Summer installation…Summer [By the Lake]!  I’m super excited about this location.  It’s so beautiful and just ethereal.
Here are the details:  For the month of July I will be doing mini-sessions at this Long Beach location…20 minutes long and your choice of one digital image for $100.  Additional digital images and prints [...]

Then and Now [Long Beach Newborn Photography]

Do your remember this baby?

You’re never going to believe this is her now…

I’m so lucky to get to see babies grow up…I’ll be able to say some day, I met you when you were just a week old!
Here’s Tessa and her mommy back then…

And now…

And a sweet family picture…

Ann and Michael…thanks for having me back!  [...]

Close Up [Long Beach Children's Photographer]

I love a good close up.  In fact, I try to make sure to nail an awesome close up for every photo session I do.  There’s just something about seeing all the little details that we fall in love with every day.  As one mom told me recently…I feel like he’s just looking straight at [...]

Sweet and Saucy [Long Beach Photographer]

I’ve shared before that I’m a details girl.  I love when an ordinary item or event can be taken to fabulous with attention to the details.
A perfect example of this is my local dessert studio…Sweet and Saucy.  When Melodi first opened her shop I heard about it from no less than five totally un-related friends.  [...]

Focus! [The Parker Palm Springs Photo Session]

Whenever I get busy I turn into a little of a schizophrenic and bounce from job to job…so excited about each one…yet not giving full concentration to anything.  I have to stop, take a breath and refocus!
So, in my moments of schizophrenia I edited two of the pictures from Bryan and Laura’s photo shoot at [...]

Cooper’s First Fish [Personal Musings]

I have so many fun pictures to share…but we are off to float the river.  So, I have to say good bye to the the internet cafe and my ability to post.
Here is Cooper’s first fish…

My mom fried it up for him and he said it tasted like a chicken nugget.

Three year old fun! [Long Beach Children's Photographer]

As much as I love being in Montana to enjoy time with my family, the internet service leaves a lot to be desired.  I generally end up making a trip into “town” to bum service off a local cafe.
So, that explains the lack of posts!
Before I left on Saturday, I got to hang out with [...]

Private Beach [Seal Beach Children's Photographer]

Yesterday I had a photo session in the late afternoon at the Seal Beach pier.  I’m working on a blog post right now, but in the meantime, I have to show you a before and after that made me laugh.
Here is the gorgeous Kim and her beautiful babies on their own private beach…

And here is [...]

The Power of Costco [Personal Musings]

Only when I’m in Costco, do I think buying 4 pounds of blueberries is a good idea.  I have anti-oxidant visions of blueberries on cereal, in pancakes, in muffins, you get the idea.
It’s only after I’m home that I realize it’s only a matter of time before I have a plastic container of rotting blueberries [...]
