Sisters

It's that time of year! Busy, busy, busy!

I had another photo shoot this evening. Two adorable sisters who I have had the privilege of watching grow up. And I got to play with the bench again! It sure looks great in the grass, I can't wait to see what it looks like in the sand.

The "D" girls were great- for about 45 mins! Then the kid in them came through got antsy and were ready for it all to be over. I don't blame them! Listening to me direct them for that long would make anybody antsy! Really, they were great!!

Here are a few of the examples of what I captured! And "K", their hair looks great!!

"E" getting antsy!!

Family Fun!

Sunday was a double day!! I shot the twins in the morning and T.H.'s family in the evening!!

What a great family!! Everyone was so sweet and lots of fun! Grandpa was as much of a kid as the kids- and you can see it in his eyes!! It was a little windy but we made the best of it. I brought along the new bench- borrowed from Tracie Taylor! I think it worked perfect for this situation. And thank you C for lugging it around for me!

Here is a peak at your photos:

Sunday in the Park

I had a crazy morning dealing with computer problems! But after lots of prayers and a phone call to my brother who is a "geek", it was all OK! Phew!!

Then it was off to meet the "B" twins for photos in the park. I almost forgot what a joy photographing older kids can be. Not that I don't love the little ones too!! It's just that these girls actually held still!! And they were so sweet and good mannered! It was a beautiful morning at a beautiful park with beautiful twins!

Here is a sneak peak:

The Smoke Has Cleared!

Yeah!! The smoke is beginning to clear here in South OC and just in time for my photo shoot tonight! We had to reschedual once because the air was too smoky.

The "H" family was another great family to photograph. All 3 girls are adorable! And I love that one is blond, one is dk brunette and one is a redhead!! They were good sports- and a Halloween party afterwards made for good bribery when they decided they didn't want to sit and smile anymore!

Here are a few quick "sneak peaks"

What a Cool Maternity Session

I went along with friend and fellow photographer Tracie Taylor on her maternity shoot last Saturday. She had decided to meet up with the mom and dad-to-be at a location we had photographed our girls at over the summer. It is a unique state park with lots of wild field areas.

Tracie has been doing this long enough to have all the cool changes of clothes and ideas to make our mom-to-be look beautiful while creating a one of a kind maternity session! And mom-to-be was a trooper- trugging though fields, climbing fences, changing clothes in the middle of nowhere! I can't wait to hear what she says when she sees them! They are stunning!! Here are a couple- I would love to hear what you think. Leave me a comment at the bottom.

A Beautiful Evening!!

It was a great evening to photograph on the beach tonight when I met up with the "S" Family.

"M" has been so sweet with her emails telling me how excited she was to have her family photos done! I was excited to meet her to see if she was as nice in person as in email- and guess what... not only was she just as nice, but her whole family (including the 3 year old who had NO NAP!) were just as sweet!! Even with no nap "C" was a trooper!! I was so bummed that I forgot the lollipops at home!! He really deserved one!

"S" Family I hope you love them as much as I do! Here is a sneak peak:

Introducing Mr and Mrs "C"!!

I really enjoyed photographing the new Mr. and Mrs. "C"!! They were relaxed and fun- as were the guests. And my favorite part was that she did something almost exactly the same as I did on my wedding day! "C" if don't remember- ask me. It was cute!!

It was a beautiful autumn California day and perfect for a wedding!! Here is a sneak peak:
