Model Mariah....

Had a photo session with Mariah a couple of days ago.  She is such a ham and so much fun to photograph.  Ya, I might be a little bias but she really is a character.

I love this series here.  She loves the phone already!!

 Always ready for the camera....

And of course some sunflowers....

Marcos Daniel

You may remember my friend Carolina....well she had a beautiful baby boy a couple of weeks ago.  Here is Marcos in all his glory.  He was so good for us to shoot because he slept!  Yay!!! Carolina and Bob you did a great job...he is adorable!!

Marcos the froggie...way super cute!!

He still has his cord, as you can see.

Carolina holding her son!!
I loved how he just knew how to cover himself.  A model in training!!

Craig Traylor!!

Last week I had the pleasure of photographing Craig Traylor.  He has been an actor since the age of 4 and needed some updated head shots!  He really knew how to work the camera, so all I had to do was shoot.  I had a blast and can't wait to do it again....thanks Craig and Meme for a fun afternoon!!

He didn't smile that much, but I did capture one here and there!!

I love the edginess of this one....so mysterious!!!
And of course we had to find some brick...nothing better than good old fashioned brick work!

Little James

What an exciting time for the parents and grandparents of James.  I had the wonderful opportunity of photographing Little James with his Mom and Dad, when he was just under 2 weeks old.  He was awake for the whole session; I can't believe how alert James was!!

My personal favorite of the day....

Daddy kisses....
Mommy kisses....

A fleeting moment when James had his eyes closed....



His room is going to be decorated in airplanes...how cute is that.....

Dean...

What fun it is to have a session with a teenage boy!!  Actually, Dean was great and knew exactly what he wanted from our session, so that was a big help.  Thanks Dean!!

Love this one, with his Serrano High School football hat.

Can you say "tough guy".....
A little GQ action here!!

Proudly displaying his football....

I think this might be my favorite of the day!!!

Happy Easter Photos of Mariah and Kayla!!

So, I was so excited to finally be able to have a little session with Mariah and Kayla in their matching Easter dresses.  But, Mariah wasn't feeling the whole photography thing that day.  I managed to get a few (very few) before she totally had a melt down.  Oh well, it's always the hardest shooting your own!!

I do believe however, that the shots I did get were gorgeous of sweet (did I just say that?) Mariah!

It's so hard to believe that she is just a 4 year old.....
One of the few of the two of them....
My precious little Kayla; she had so much fun playing with the props that in most of her shots she was looking down.  But this one is way cute!!
Can you give me just a little sass Mariah??  I love how Kayla is so into her egg.  This is my favorite shot of the day!!
Such a doll!!
I wanted this one for me and I had one shot at it (literally).  But it turned out pretty good....

More from Laguna Beach with Carolina and Family!

As promised, more from Laguna Beach with Carolina, Bob and their daughter Isabella.  The sun  was as fabulous as the models this day.  Thank you guys for such a great afternoon.  Can't wait for the little one's arrival!

Gorgeous, gorgeous, gorgeous....and the sun too!!
Little Isabella was way too cute as usual, but really did not want to have her photo taken.  So, she played in the sand and on the rocks while we did our thing.
One of my favorites of the day....
I loved this one of the three of them...
Isn't she just the prettiest pregnant women??

Another fav of the day...
