Show me the love! [To Sum it Up]

I just got back from another group of photo sessions by the bay. One of the moms commented on how her kids love each other the most when they’re with me. They are lovey and hugging and being sweet. Now, I’ve got to say I’m right with her on that one. My kids aren’t hugging and cuddling on the couch while we watch TV. But, they do love each other.

Part of my job is to get you to open up. Not in an unauthentic, cheesy way, but truly show me how much you love each other. Families respond to that. Especially if they’ve seen me a time or two before. They relax, have fun and show the love!

Rascals to Rebels Halloween Mini-Sessions [Rossmoor Photographer]

Guess what’s just around the corner!? Oh, just some of the cutest photos you’ll take all year. I mean, who can’t resist a baby dressed up in a fuzzy costume or a kid so proud to show off their face paint or their cape!?

The last two years, I’ve been at Rascals to Rebels offering this amazing deal to get photos of your kids in their Halloween costumes. It’s just $20 (cash or check only) for 3 digital images that will be emailed to you. They are big enough to print and cute enough to share! There are no appointments, so come by the Rossmoor store (12185 Seal Beach Blvd., Seal Beach, CA 90740) any time between 3 and 5pm on October 27. It’s going to be a blast, so don’t miss out!

To Sum it Up [Orange County Family Photographer]

Here’s just a bit of what I was up to last week! It’s definitely that time of year. I’m rushing from location to location and squeezing newborn sessions in between. It’s so much fun! And I have lots of fun stuff to share. 🙂

Sit Stay Love Dog Event at Anthropologie [Orange County Photographer]

Crazy how life works, huh? I never in a million years would have thought five years ago that I would be a) photographing an event at Anthropologie and b) the event would be photographing dogs. I have loved shopping at this store for forever. Even just walking around the store is like sensory overload. The smells, the displays, THE CLOTHES! Anyway, after getting referred by my friend Laura a few years ago, I was so excited to get asked back. And on a side note, dogs are like kids right!? They move around quickly and they don’t hide how they feel. It was so much fun to capture each of their personalities and the love they have for their owners.

To Sum it Up [Long Beach Family Photographer]

Just wanted to share with you a bit of what I was up to last week! Sometimes the simplest locations can be the best. Even though the beach can be tricky with lighting, using the shade of the pier will take away the harsh light. I love the soft look of these photos. Parks are also a no-brainer for photo shoots. I look for big trees to filter the light. Again, no harsh light. And a little bit of sunset back lighting doesn’t hurt either!

Tricks of the trade [Orange County Newborn Photographer]

I was all set to blog about a striped vase that I made today. But, I thought I’d save that for another day and keep it real with you. Sometimes getting ‘the shot’ is hard. Sometimes you have to be creative. That’s real life.

Check this out…

Doesn’t he look so excited to have a new baby sister!? The truth is, while he is loving his baby sister, he really just wants to play. Pictures were not on his to-do list for today. BUT. M&Ms were on the to-do list. Soooo, I got creative.

M&Ms can be photoshopped out of pictures. Smiles cannot be photoshopped. So, we had a win-win situation here. 🙂

And this photo of Lauren’s beautiful family would not have happened without an awesome Nana working her magic behind me!

Back to School at Rascals to Rebels [Rossmoor Child Photographer]

I’m finally getting a chance to share a bit from my last visit to Rascals to Rebels in Rossmoor. I chose a handful to share on the blog, but there were SO MANY cuties that came out for pictures at the beginning of the month. I feel so lucky to be able to partner with the store. It’s always such a great time!!
