God Bless Emma + Olivia on their First Holy Communion.

I was so pleased to meet Blaize and his mom to capture such an important time in his life. Apparently at the last minute, he made the decision to attend SMU! Wishing Blaize all the luck in his new life as a college student! Go Mustangs!

Give me a newborn baby, a new mother in a soft white gown and some white curtains near a sunny window – and I’m a happy photographer! I have been anticipating the arrival of this sweet baby girl! Seems like it was just yesterday and we were walking barefoot along the beach in Laguna for Amanda’s maternity shoot. There were so many sweet moments during our shoot and I had a really hard time narrowing down some favorites. Below is a glimpse into our day together. Congratulations to your newest and sweetest addition!

Just mere days after Lindsay’s maternity shoot, Baby Denim made an early appearance. This sweet boy came into this world just before the holidays. I was so excited to finally meet this little guy and see his sweet face for myself. It was a rainy California day, but it was all smiles and sunshine inside. So excited for this family’s new chapter in life and cannot wait to see this little dude grow! Here are just a few of my favorites from our session.

I love a good hot cocoa and pj family session! I have been lucky enough to work with The Smith Family every winter and watching their little guy grow. We switched it up a bit this year and did a cozy little session at their home. As much as I love a good beach session, I find home session to be so sweet. Here are just a few from our time together!

I am literally obsessed with this family! Not only because they are my very close friends, but look how stinkin’ cute they are! I have really loved capturing the growth of this family. From graduations to a new formed family– I love being at their side for every step of it. Lindsay’s idea of bringing In-N-Out as part of the session was everything! It was so fun and playful! Pregnancy cravings are real and capturing her love of In-N-Out was just perfect! Scroll down to see some of my favorites!

I just loved meeting the Erzen family and visiting their lovely home in San Juan Capistrano with all the natural light a photography can only dream of! The beautiful home was styled by mother and interior designer, Jane Erzen, which was so warm and inviting. I especially love capturing families in their home. We had so much fun hanging out and ending our session with playing in the leaves with the kids. I hope to see this sweet family again next year. In the meantime, here are some of my favorites.

I love everything about this family! I’ve been fortunate enough to become close with this family and had so much fun photographing them at Treasure Island in Laguna Beach. It was the perfect fall California night at sunset – and they brought along their fur-baby, Kobe, to join in on the fun. Here are just a few favorites from our session!
