I have been so anxious to post these pictures of our new nephew, Colton Michael. Don’t steal his name, ok? I think it’s so cute. Remember the maternity session I posted a month or so ago of them in the redwoods…. he finally arrived! Anyway… he is seriously one of the cutest little things and was such a trooper through his session! He did poop on my blankets, and the diaper cover, on mom and auntie… so the washing machine came in ultra handy My little Lilly had so much fun holding him like a big girl! She gave me a look like, “mom… I’m ready for a brother!”

I wish my in-laws lived closer!

I have a super awesome amazing landlord for my studio…. she bought little Eva’s mom & dad a gift certificate for a portrait session when Eva was born and I was told how beautiful this baby was… she wasn’t kidding! Eva just chilled for me and made my job so easy! I mean she just looked at me with these big beautiful eyes and threw out these huge smiles! Mom & dad did great too I can’t wait for them to see their images in their custom fine art album… it’ll be so beautiful! These images were all done at my studio in downtown La Mesa!

Thanks guys!

Why, hello Noah! Your mommy & I went to high school together and I was so honored to photograph your on-location newborn session in your cute little room! I mean honestly, your room is pretty stinkin cute all custom designed and all! I know you weren’t feeling so hot during your session but you were such a little trooper letting me move you all around while you slept! I can’t wait to see you grow!

Thanks mom & dad!

Here’s ONE of the big announcements you have been waiting for! I have added In-Studio sessions!

I am of course offering on-location sessions still.. those are my pride and joy! These in-studio sessions are going to take place in my studio in downtown La Mesa and are available by appointment only. These are for newborn sessions, Watch Me Grow (year of picture) packages, babies, toddlers, cake sessions, kids, and headshots. Know that I can not do a family larger then 3– 4 is the absolute MAX I can shoot in the studio. Doing your family session in studio is COMPLETELY different then on-location… you aren’t really focused on “interacting” as much as you are with the on-location sessions.

The same product pricing remains in affect (available at your consultation) but the creation fee is $250 for in-studio. This is $100 less then on-location. No worries about weather, wind, the sun etc. This is *introductory* pricing and can change at any time.

As a promotion, reserve your session in the studio and receive 10% off your creation fee! You *must* book by June 30!

Isn’t little H SO CUTE?! He was such a precious little thing to photograph— he has these lips that are just SO adorable! I can’t WAIT to photograph his 6 month session and see how big he has gotten!

Thank you mom & dad for allowing me to capture your new family and announce him to the world!

Meet baby S. I photographed her & her family in the hospital when she was a few hours old and I have to say, she is one of the most precious babies around. We had a lot of fun photographing her in the tutu, many hats and all over her home! Once again, another san diego on-location portrait session using all natural light. I am so excited to photograph baby her as she grows up!

Last July, I photographed Ann & Joshua’s wedding (see the post HERE) and I was so excited when she told me they were expecting a baby! Well, time flies and now he is here and is too cute! He took a while to finally fall asleep (he wanted to be involved in all the action) but finally he zonked out and I was able to photograph him sleeping. Like all newborn sessions, I photographed them in the comfort of their home using all natural light. Isn’t this such a beautiful family?!

Thanks, Ann & Joshua for allowing me to document not only your wedding day, but announcing your first baby to the world I look forward to more sessions with you guys!

Here’s just a little sneak peek of little miss S’s on-location newborn session from the other day! She’s just SO yummy! Wait till you see the beautiful shots we got… especially with mommy & daddy! Coming soon!

I am so excited to finally post some of little miss S! I photographed her at the hospital while she was just a few hours old and she’s SO precious! I am really excited to photograph her first year of life and by the looks of things, she will be a little beauty

Be on the look out for her newborn session coming soon!

Seriously… does it get any sweeter then this?

Congrats mom & dad!
