Upadhyaya Family - Laguna Niguel, CA {Lifestyle + Family}
- As much as I love beach session - I even more love cozy home sessions. I love how sweet this family is and grateful that our boys have become friends. We spent our time with lots of snuggles and bribing Jimmy with treats to look at the camera! This warm and cozy session has me all ready to get cozy for the holidays wit[...]
Ricciotti Family - Laguna Beach, CA {Lifestyle + Family}
- We met this sweet family when we moved into our new neighborhood last Valentines Day. Their oldest daughter babysits for us and my kids just adore her. We are always catching up at the pool or running into each other surfing at Doheny. I was super excited when they asked me to do their family portraits this year. We me[...]
Applebee Family - Laguna Beach, CA {Family + Lifestyle}
- Mornings on the beach are my favorite! Especially around the holidays when everyone is trying to squeeze their photo session during golden hour. I was grateful that the Applebee Family was up for having our mini session in the 7 o'clock hour on a Sunday morning. The air was crisp, the tide was rolling in, but we had so[...]
This Is Us - Laguna Beach, CA {Personal, Family + Lifestyle}
- I don't usually make an appearance on my own blog, but this year I wanted to try something different. Thanks to a tripod and a remote, I decided to take our own family pictures this year. I wanted to make it all about the kids, but it was nice to get a few shots of my husband and I in there as well. We headed to one of[...]
Smith Family - San Juan Capistrano {Lifestyle + Family}
- I love photographing families year after year! Since I'm new to the West Coast, that doesn't happen often. I was so happy and honored to photograph The Smith Family again this year. We had so much fun last year at our beach session and I was so stoked to photograph them again this year! We met up in the old part of San[...]
Bunge Family - Dana Point, CA {Family + Lifestyle}
- Loved getting to know and photograph The Bunge Family this past weekend at Salt Creek Beach for a little Mini! I'm always about adding furry family members to the shoot - just look how cute this family is!
Pilon Family - Laguna Beach, CA {Family + Lifestyle}
- We've been so blessed to have this sweet family in our lives. We met the Pilons last year and they have become an extension of our family and the closest friends we have here in California. Our kids are best friends, the men surf, and us ladies have shopping in common! They chose Victoria Beach as a setting because of [...]
Ryan Family - Laguna Niguel, CA {Family + Lifestyle}
- I'm lucky enough to live on the same street as this sweet family. I met the Ryan Family this past weekend at one of my favorite spots - Serrano Creek Park. We spent the evening exploring, collecting sticks and playing in these amazing tee pees someone left behind. Here is a sneak peak of our time together! [...]
Hendricks Family - Laguna Niguel, CA {Family + Lifestyle}
- I'm still adjusting to fall in California to be more like summer. I do miss the fall foliage back east, but I think I found a great alternative to fall foliage with these gorgeous Eucalyptus tree filled park at Serrano Creek Park. This was the perfect setting for my mini session with the Hendricks Family. We got to w[...]
Smith Family Mini - Dana Point, CA {Family + Lifestyle}
- The first time I met the Smith Family was at Salt Creek Beach when they attended my son's birthday party back in October. It was so fitting to meet up with them there again to have their family mini session. We spent our session chasing the sun and took a lot of snuggly pictures on the beach. It was the prefect fall Ca[...]
Crea Family Mini - San Clemente {Family + Lifestyle}
- I have never encountered such harsh sun as the day I met up with the Crea Family. We met up about an hour and a half before sunset yet the light was so blinding. We had to seek refuge from the glare and ended up doing most of our shoot under the San Clemente Pier. I had such a great time with this sweet little family! [...]
Fodrini Family Mini - Laguna Beach {Family + Lifestyle}
- The first family I met when moving to California was The Fodrini Family - so it seemed fitting that they were also one of my very first clients here too. We met up at the beautiful Treasure Island Beach at the Montage Resort. We had a quick little mini session but as always, I had a hard time narrowing it down to a few[...]
