My favorite part of a family lifestyle session are the candids. This allows the session to be natural while still capturing the images the family desires. The family below did just that, having fun with their little guy! A big congratulations to the Perez family; they are expecting their second child in a couple of months!

This last month has been HOT and not quite the normal weather for us here in Southern California. Despite the warm sunlight, this was perfect location for this family to run up and down the historic 1898 railroad trestle bridge during their summer session. Portrait lifestyle sessions are customized for each family. Your session can scheduled at beautiful outdoor location of your choice or in the comfort of your own backyard.

With all the hustle and bustle of the holiday sessions it was refreshing to photograph a newborn. There is so much excitement, yet chaos, the first few days of a newborn’s life that time flies by in blur. Capturing those tender kisses, itty bitty fingers, and squishy lips will fill you with joy for years to come.

I had a fun spring session, despite the morning drizzle, with these two energetic brothers the other weekend. The joy of photographing a lifestyle session is the spontaneity, casual setting, and unstructured environment. Each family is different and rewarding to capture those memories.

It’s always fun capturing a family in their own environment. I photographed the Brown boys singing jingle bells and swinging on a tire swing late last year. It was the perfect session to wrap up my year.

Elliot came to me with a mission — he would allow me to take his picture if he could wear his “1 fish, 2 fish, 3 fish shirt.” After a short struggle with him mommy to change our session began. I followed him around on a lovely winter afternoon as he chatted about his kitties and trains. Such a smart and sweet boy, Elliot is.

I had the loveliest time with this mother and son I photographed last month. The twinkle in his eye when his mother squeezed him closer was such a treat to witness.

There is always lots of giggles and laughter as I chase these two active girls around. I’ve found the best way to capture candid moments is when the children aren’t expecting anything special to happen.

I’ve know this family for many years but this was my first opportunity to photograph them. The girls are just adorable together and can tell they will grow up to be very close.
