SIBLINGS: what do you get when you mix spunky with sweet?

A pile of fun! You would think a 3 year old rambunctious little boy and a 1 year old girl, just getting over a cold (or was she starting a new one?) would make for an umm...interesting photo session. But not so here. He was just a ball of energy and that's what I love--I love capturing kids in their element, being themselves, not fakey fakey smiles. And little sister must be used to it because she found him extremely entertaining.

Sorry for falling SO behind (I know, it's not the first time you've heard my whining)-but please bear with me...I'm getting there.

KIDS: lifestyle

Now this is what I call lifestyle photography. I went into the session thinking it was going to be mostly formal posing for holiday pictures but the kids had their own ideas and I LOVE going along with the kids. We definitely mixed it up but these are a few of my favorites. We were even able to persuade big sis to get into her school uniform to show off her scholarly side. She apparently is an avid reader.

What an amazingly kind family, referred by another of my favorite clients. I know I've said it before but it doesn't hurt to say it again: I am truly blessed to meet so many wonderful people, stay home with my kids, and hone a passion that started out as a part time hobby.

KIDS: growing up...

No, they're not ALL grown up yet, but when you start losing teeth and getting keepers in your mouth, it's a sign of growing up. I photographed these beautiful siblings in the beginning of 2008 and they've all matured so much! The fun part is that I can totally relate to these three because they are the same age as my older two. Super pretty and so much energy!

Happy MOTHER'S Day!

I'm a little early (when am I EVER early???) but I promised Dad that I would get this post up so he could surprise Mom with this sneak peek. And this Dad totally came through! He dressed the kids, brought them to the park, had them ready for a photo shoot---and then I sent him home for MORE clothes and he watched my stuff while I ran off to play with the kids. Mom, your kids are ADORABLE and so sweet. I love the relationship that they have with each other-you can just see the closeness in their willingness to hold hands and sit together and hug. You've trained them well (and your husband too. :) ) So many cute ones so instead of narrowing it down to 2 or 3, I thought I'd throw in my own little surprise and show a bunch.

She picked one flower for each member in her family.


Happy Mother's Day to all the moms out there. We do so many things and sometimes it's a thankless job, but when your child(ren) tell you that they love you the most and when you are the only one who can heal their ouchies or soothe their sorrows, it's all worth it. And how can I not love it when my son uses all my scotch tape to make me a mother's day card out of my scratch paper and my envelopes that were meant for the recycling bin? He also wrote in yellow pencil so I had a really hard time reading his cryptic message--but I love it all the same!

Phew...that was a long post-it was like a blogging workout (see my other wimpy posts and you'll know what I mean).

BOYS: will be boys

These boys were hilarious! Most of the best pics are actually "outtakes" from our time together-or rather unposed, unscripted. Thanks to Tami Chao for referring this client. By the way, these two moms are Arbonne reps, in case you are looking for herbal and botanical products for skin care, cosmetics, nutrition, aromatherapy, and weight management. You can find their websites at: http://maryyoung.myarbonne.com/ and http://tamichao.myarbonne.com/

Enjoy the mega sneak peek!

SIBLINGS: Remember these kids?

So friendly and the middle girl is still the perfect model! I photographed this family when baby was just a floppy 2 month old. Now she's sitting up and smiling like her big brother and big sister. Thanks for inviting me to capture your kids at this fun stage!

FAMILY: Another repeat client

And they came all the way from the Pismo Beach area to see me. I'm extremely flattered and touched that they traveled so far for the photo session--definitely my longest distance client. :) I shot baby and mom about a year ago and am amazed at how the little girl has grown. Such a smiley little girl too!
