Frankie ~

Ms. Frankie turned Two!

Oh how I love photographing little ones.  I absolutely adore how they are little sponges and absorbing everything they can about their surroundings and the enormous world they live in. Little Frankie is no exception, she wanted to look at the flowers, weeds, and explore. During our time together she loved playing with her balloons and accidentally let one go.  Her world collapsed and I felt horrible. Thank goodness her mommy was prepared and brought an extra one:)

Ms. Frankie is growing like a weed and I have been so blessed to capture her little milestones. It’s the best part of my job when my clients trust me to keep coming back time and time again! It’s such an honor:)

Thanks Ms. Frankie for playing and exploring with me!

Montana ~ Senior Portraits Class of 2013

Driving home from Montana’s senior session in Redlands I was on a high, you know you do what you love when you leave the job smiling from ear to ear. We joked, we laughed, we posed, and had such an awesome time exploring downtown Redlands. Montana kept me guessing what she was going to do next with every click of my shutter.  Truly, every time she heard my shutter click twice she seemed to naturally move into a different position or changed her facial expression. I had so much to work with and I had a blast going through everything that we captured. She was a real “HAM” for the camera.  I think she needs to model as she is so extremely natural at it! I loved every second with you Montana! Thanks for Rocking your session!

Montana is ENERGETIC, EDGY, FUN, ORIGINAL, and SPUNKY…..xoxo

Jake + Luke ~ Brothers

These two had me cracking up from the moment we started walking into the field.  They were laughing at each other, at me and at themselves. Jake and Luke are super awesome  fun loving kids who absolutely adore each other. One of the biggest highlights of our session was when a horse was coming our way and the owner asked if the boys wanting to pet it.  They were so ecstatic  and you can see it in their faces as they sat right next to it. When we were finished and the boys were leaving, I drove away with the biggest smile thinking about how much fun I had with them. That’s what I live for and why I love what I do!!!

Thanks Jake and Luke for hanging out and for making me so filled with laughter!

Cherish + Matt ~ Engagement, Pasadena City Hall

AMAZING!!!! Pasadena City Hall was the perfect location for Cherish and Matt. They were looking for a beautiful area with a plethora of architecture for their engagement session. Cherish and Matt were gorgeous and the lush landscape was breathtaking. I absolutely admired the love that I could feel oozing out of Matt and Cherish (just look below and you will SEE it too!). You could see it, feel it, and it made me so giddy. They are two loving souls that can’t get enough of each other. I couldn’t be more happy for them  and are looking forward to their wedding in October.

Thank you for allowing me in to your world! It sure is a beautiful place:)

Kimmie + Geoff + baby Jaxon

I love the way Geoff looks at Kimmie.  He has these eyes that long for his beautiful wife and is so attentive to her.  It is such a beautiful thing to see, two people who are madly in love and are awaiting the arrival of their child. They have two older girls and little Jaxon was definitely a big surprise. What a blessing little Jaxon is to all of them. Geoff finally got his BOY:)

I am so lucky to know Kimmie and be blessed by her sweetness. Big prayers for a safe delivery!
