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.

This Is Us - Laguna Beach, CA {Personal, Family + Lifestyle}

Hendricks Family - Laguna Niguel, CA {Family + Lifestyle}
- I'm still adjusting to fall in California to be more like summer.

This was the perfect setting for my mini session with the Hendricks Family. We got to w[...]

I'd always wait for a cold and sunny day with some snow on the grown to help bring in as much natural light as possible into[...]
