Why hello there!  So glad to meet you!

 This little one just turned six months old when we had her session… one of my favorite ages! Of course, there is something special and new with every age and stage, but six-months old, the half birthday, it just says “baby” to me. I ADORE all the expressions these little ones make, their inquisitive, curious eyes and the huge gummy smiles.  I LOVE all their sweet baby details too, like chubby fingers holding on to a favorite toy (by the way, I don’t know a baby who has Sophie the Giraffe that doesn’t absolutely love her), tiny toes, and the eyelashes get me every time.

 It was  wonderful to spend the morning with this beautiful family in their home… photographing their life with baby.  In the few hours we spent together, I could tell how much mom and dad love and adore their baby girl.  It makes me happy to be able to capture this forever in photographs!

W family, it was a pleasure to meet you and an honor to spend time with you and photograph your beautiful family!
Thank you!

winter at the beach | laguna beach

Casual and relaxed… that’s exactly what this winter session at the beach was. I love that his Mama told me right at the start that she didn’t care if he got dirty, even though he was dressed up.   We played in the sand,  looked for whales and pirates (unsuccessfully, but we did find a few sea anenomes) and had fun afternoon together at the beach.

A new beginning, a fresh start… a reminder of all that is good in the world.

Welcome 2011!  My first post of the year (and my 100th post!)… a sneak peek of a sweet newborn babe, a wee six days old.  She made her debut just before Christmas and this was taken shortly after, but I felt today would be the perfect day to share her session on the blog.  The first day of the year marks a new beginning, just as this beautiful new baby does.  A special thanks to her Mommy for so patiently waiting for this sneak peek!  Can’t wait to show you the rest of your gallery!
