YO HO YO HO A Pirate's Life for Me

Happy 3rd Birthday Connor. I joined Connor to share in the 3rd birthday pirate festivities. This party had pirate everything...it was great. The cake made by Connor's mom was amazing...there was treasure seeping out of the crevices of the treasure chest cake. Arrrrggggg!

Roaring dinosaur

Beautiful day at the park...again. Getting a babino to smile is fun especially when he's only 9 months old. This little guy is a thinker and he's just as cute when he's not smiling. His mom and dad have devised a special way to get him to smile...it's the "roar of a dinosaur" folks! Or that's what I like to call it. Every time they made this sound, little Henry would just start laughing. It was so darn cute I couldn't stand it. It was a joy photographing this beautiful family.

Boys will be boys

Raising 4 boys must be an awesome experience making everyday new and exciting. However, seeing them grow into amazing men must be so rewarding. I can tell this is how their mom and dad felt about their 4 boys that are now grown up. All grown up and raising children of their own. I had a great time with these guys and their parents getting them to carry each other and do fun shots.

Thanks for the opportunity!

Welcome Emmia

Here she is...Emmia Camille Powell. Born to proud parents Melissa and Vince. This little one was calm and collected during her first photo session. She actually slept through the entire thing. It's rough being a new born=) We were able to put her in a tutu, boa, and sometimes nothing at all. She was comfortable through the entire thing. Thanks Emmia!

Beach or Park?...you choose

This was the question of the day when scheduling an engagement shoot. Because the decision was too difficult to make...we did both! How fun. At Laguna Beach it seems everyone else had the same idea. There were about 5 other photographers using the same space...as if there isn't enough beach in Southern California to go around. As we tiptoed around and tried not to be in anyone's shots...we got some good ones ourselves. Then a couple days later it was off to the park to get some of those warm shots I love so much. The sessions were fun and I hope they loved the photos...see you soon!
