A one year old, his siblings & their family...

What a fun family! The girls were such great helpers and then Mr. C had this great smile... A great way to end a weekend of sessions.

This is a big peek (you know me--can't narrow them down), so I'll get started on sharing... I did a couple of collages to help me share more at one time!

First we started at the park...








Then we headed back to the house for a little studio stuff...





Last we did a little cake smash to celebrate him turning one!

Thank you P Family! I hope you enjoy your sneak... I'll be in touch when the rest are ready!

Love me a newborn...

I had the awesome opportunity to photograph another miracle of life today. And he was precious--just like his parents! Thank you for letting me capture this special time in your lives of welcoming your first born into your family.

Meet Mr. L!


Look at this squishiness... Love those cheeks!

Precious...


I think this is my all time new favorite picture... Love close-ups and his is just perfect!

Sleeping so peacefully...

Zonked!

The 'Pose'! We worked on this pose for a while... had to do it in stages, but we got it!


Mommy Lovin'...
Safe in mommy's arms.

Daddy Lovin'...

In Daddy's arms...
Thank you R Family. Mr. L was just perfect. I'll be in touch when the rest are ready.

**Be sure to scroll down for another new post today... The N Family and their 3 princesses!

All I can think is that 3 princesses equals 3 weddings for this family!

They are beautiful princesses too! I met this family out at the park yesterday and braved the winds for some family pics. I think mom (and dad) were a little worried with keeping 3 kiddos entertained for pics, but we did it. And we got some pretty cute stuff!

Here is a sneak of our session...


The girls being silly... Middle sister was doing all she could to not look at the camera...
The girls!
Baby Sister... Sitting up there like a big girl!

Middle Sister... Look at her gorgeous hair!

Big Sister... More gorgeous hair!

The Family!

How it all began... I love their expressions here...

Little PJ style mixed with a pose.

One more of the family!

Thank you N Family! I hope you enjoy your sneak peek. The girls did a great job and we got some sweet stuff... There's more too! I'll be in touch when the rest are ready.

Gonna be in print and on the world wide web...

Let me preface this by saying that I love referrals... A good portion of my business (if not most) is through referrals. Recently, I was approached by a co-worker of a past client to come to their pediatric dental office and update the headshots for some new employees and also photograph their office for their website. You can check out their site now at Joel Shields, DDS, but be sure to check back soon for updated interior and exterior pics of the office.

Here is just a quick peek of the exterior of the building... I'll try to add more or do a new post once I've completed the interior images. Such a neat office! So colorful and fun--just what kids need in unfamiliar territories.




They are located in Sunnyvale, right off the highway, so even for my eastern county clients, this is an easy place to get to! Be sure to check back soon for more images. Oh and I mentioned in print also... They're going to be using one of these for a local ad they'll be placing.

Thanks again to the dental office! I'll be in touch when everything is ready for you!

Another beautiful mommy-to-be!

How lucky am I to have the opportunity to photograph all these beautiful expecting mommies?? It was a joy to meet the D Family... And mom was a great sport while I had her up and down numerous times for different poses.

Enjoy your sneak peek! Can't wait to meet Miss Sadie... Love her name too!













Thank you again for this opportunity! It was a pleasure meeting the both of you and can't wait to meet your new little one.
