Love this newborn session with Baby Clayton.  He was so cooperative and just as sweet as can be…

His proud big sister was so good with him.  She even offered to teach him Dora’s theme song… 🙂

I’ve had so many newborn sessions lately…summer must be just around the corner!  I love it!!!

So.  Cute babies.  I love ’em.

Wyatt was quite the jet-setter…we made it to the park, the beach, the train and a pile of leaves during his photo session!

Sometimes people shy away from pictures at the beach because they don’t want to be cliche.  Instead we focused on bright colors, back lighting and lots of shells to play with!

I always ask parents…what does he/she like to do?  After hearing me babble baby talk for a few minutes, they get a little bored!  So, parents are usually full of ideas of baby’s favorite activities du jour.  Wyatt was into hanging upside down…which got a few laughs and then I love this picture…everyone’s hanging out, Wyatt’s just hanging out upside down.

Just a quick update…all the spring mini-sessions have been filled for April 3 and 7.  I also added another date and filled that too!  It’s a such a lovely location…but, I wanted to switch things up a bit.  I’ve been really inspired by all the yellow wildflowers that are blooming all over southern CA.  There are a few places in particular that I love, so I decided to offer two more dates for the spring promotion.

Tuesday April 4 (Huntington Beach location)

I’ll be bringing this fabulous white rococo chair and a few other vintage pieces…

The previous photos were taken on a very sunny day, but if it happens to be overcast, we’ll have a nice subtle golden glow…

Please email or call me if you’d like to reserve a time slot!

**Update:  all time slots have been filled as of April 4.  Please email if you’d like to be added to the wait list for cancellations.

I’m so excited to finally be sharing this location with you!!  And just in time for Spring!  I love the long grass and the fact that it just looks like the country. 🙂

Buckle up…there’s going to be a lot of pictures!  But, before I get to all the pretty stuff, here’s the details:

Details: $100 for a 20 minute photo session including props and styling (if desired).

The first 4 people to sign up will receive a complimentary digital image.  (I just put this out to my mailing list, so if you’re reading it on my blog, you better hurry! 🙂

Dates/Times: This location is best at sunset…plus it’s my favorite time of day to shoot!

I happen to love this sofa, but if that’s not your thing…not to fret, I’ve got plenty of other props.  Or just the long grass!

Okay…so have you not been won over yet to this new spot!  I love it and I hope you love it to.  I’m going to start with these 8 time slots on April 2 and 7.  If they fill up in a flash and I need to add more, I will, so email me if you’d like to be put on a wait list for a different date.  Again, this location definitely looks best right at sunset, so I’m planning the times accordingly.

They traveled all the way from the Bay Area for pictures.  We had to reschedule because of the weather and then as luck would have it, Ella fell and got a fat lip running to the car.  Such is life.  Our best laid plans sometimes end up shattered on the floor.  BUT, a good attitude can change things around…and they not only turned things around, they turned them amazing.

Brandon was as cute as can be and Ella was a total champ.  She was so sweet with her brother and took direction so well.  The last time I had seen her was when she was Brandon’s age!  Such fun to see families year after year…

I’m so excited about this newest backdrop for Rascals to Rebels!  I’ve been working on it for a few weeks, so getting Hudson (my little muse) and my sweet Jillian for some sample shots was just too fun!

Here are the details:  Spend $50 at Rascals to Rebels (http://www.rascalstorebels.net/) and get yourself a complimentary photo session on one of the specified dates.  I’ll be at the Rossmoor store on March 11 and 12 from 10am-noon.  I’ll be at the Huntington Beach store on March 25 and 26 from noon-2pm.  You have to sign up in the store and these spots go FAST!  So, go check out all the cute Easter clothes and sign up!

This backdrop isn’t huge…so this is for children 12 and under with a max of 3 children per sitting.  The photo sessions last 15 minutes each, which is the perfect amount of time to grab some amazing shots of your cuties!

I love that this backdrop looks great with pastels, neutrals, white and even bright fun colors.  I wanted to show off some bright colors on Jillian and I love how she just pops!

Have a great weekend!
