An in home newborn session with a very excited big sister!

Big sister kept this session very lively and full of giggles! She even knew how to make baby brother smile too! It was the perfect example of letting the kids be kids. In between the chaos there are always inevitably moments of calm and I’ll be ready to capture those before the toddler tornado takes off again!!

A Dolly Parton party for twin 8 year olds!

This adorable Dolly Parton themed party is the 5th party I’ve photographed for this sweet family. The Beijos Events team designed and planned this one ( as well as the others! ) and I think this one is my favorite one yet. “What would Dolly do?”… well she would throw a party at a horse ranch in Orange County, serve adorable sweet treats, pizza and drinks. Have multiple craft tables and of course horse back riding too! “It’s hard to be a diamond in a rhinestone world” but Stella and Charlotte and all their lucky friends managed to pull it off!

Family portraits in the park

This sweet family have been with me for awhile now… ever since Mama was pregnant with little sister! At this point they feel like friends and I look forward to our sessions together each time. Here’s a few of my favorites from their most recent gallery.
