more yummy goodness

Meet Riley, my newest niece. She was a little over 2 weeks old here and just so precious. I am loving all these newborns and I just want to gobble them up!

I think Riley looks just like her momma in this first picture.













Smooches!

sweet sweet baby

Meet Brooklynn, aka Miss B. Miss B is about the sweetest little thing I have ever laid my eyes upon. She was just perfect and what a little beauty, just like her mama and grandma. Miss B's got some good genes. Mark is a lucky guy! I left the session with an fluttering heart and an aching uterus. Hello Baby Fever!

Without further delay, here she is...



The 2nd photo I took and she smiled! She loves the camera already!










Same but in B&W. I love them both!






Be still, my heart.

proud big brother kaidin

Handsome little Kaidin is the big brother of the twins I shared yesterday. He was, hands down, the easiest toddler I have ever photographed. So much personality. He was a natural behind the camera, not to mention adorable! Not only was he a great model, he was a great helper too. He was so interested in all my gear and insisted on helping me carry it in and out of the house. Thanks Kaidin!







These blog-collage things (above) are new and I am not loving them yet. I think it is probably user error, so in the meantime I am going to post some individual shots of Mr. K so everyone can see them better.

baby love times two

Meet Miya and Bode, the highly anticipated twins that I felt lucky to photograph. They were about 4 weeks old here and I was chomping at the bit to point my lens at them from the day their awesome mom booked this session. I was super excited to photograph twins and the fact that they were boy/girl twins was icing on the cake! Love!!

beach babe

Yes, you are seeing this post correctly. I had yet another maternity session. Four in a row (all first timers) and all 4 of these women were simply G-O-R-G-E-O-U-S!

This is Elizabeth & her hubby Mark. Their session was at the beach, down in Carlsbad at the family's fabulous beach house. Elizabeth & Mark are a such a fun & stylish couple, not to mention good looking too. You could see and feel the love between them. They are expecting a baby boy in July and I am so excited for them. Boys rock!

E&M, enjoy your sneak peek!









See, I told you they were good looking.

betsy + riley

Another gorgeous & glowing mama-to-be. This is my husband's sister, Betsy, who is due with her first child at the end of this month. I am a horrible sister-in-law because I completely forgot to post this sneak peek for her & her husband Brad. I am hanging my head in shame. Sorry guys. Enjoy!

Obviously they are having a little girl, named Riley. :)


The rest of the images were taken at the golf course where they were married last summer.




I'm pretty sure Betsy thought I was nuts when I asked her to go lay on the greens. I thought her outfit would look fabulous against the green grass and I was right!

glowing mama to be

I had the pleasure of photographing my beautiful friend Kristin, her husband Mark, and their pooch Kobe last week in Newport Beach. Kristin was so easy and a natural beauty. She has the perfect baby belly and she just GLOWS. I am sure baby Brooklynn will be beautiful just like her mama (and gramma too)! Enjoy your sneak peek!



Look at her glow!!






Gorgeous eyes.






Huge THANKS to my dear friends, Nicole & Pat, of Villa Rentals for letting us use one of your oceanfront rentals for this shoot. You guys are the best!!
