Another sweet one year old!

Remember this little guy? I had the chance to hang out with him again a couple weeks ago to capture some one year pics. He was not too sure about me at first – he stood in the same spot for a good ten minutes staring at me before we got some smiles but it was sure worth the wait! He has so many sweet expressions πŸ™‚





blowing kisses!

1. A great long weekend with my family and boys – Disneyland, lake, family dinner and a little relaxing
2. Christian had so much fun playing with the water in his little pool and in the sand!
3. Little man scarfed down a cupcake and a half and had frosting ALL over his face – it was hilarious!
4. Listening to my brother Josh plan his last minute trip to Jersey this weekend to watch his King’s in the playoffs – love that he is so passionate about his hobbies and he is even taking our niece – they will have a blast!
5. Josh’s playoff beard – he looks like a caveman πŸ˜›

Candid Moments :)

This family was so much fun – there were very few posed photos in their gallery – their session was made up of mostly candid shots and I loved almost every one – it was so hard to narrow down a few favorites to share so there are quite a few πŸ™‚




love these two moments between the kiddos and their mama <3

Sandy sibs!!

Had a blast with these two cuties at the beach one morning – they are going to have a new baby sister pretty soon – I’m sure she will be adorable as well!


so serious but oh so cute – he wasn’t too sure about me or sitting on a bucket at the beach πŸ˜›



the kiddos found a ladybug and it was good for about 15 minutes of entertainment πŸ™‚

want your own beach shots? There are only two more beach mini openings – book yours here before they’re gone!

1. Hair appointment tomorrow!
2. Hanging out with some awesome photogs on Thursday πŸ™‚
3. Got little man on camera “reading” – he knows what so many of the pictures are!
4. Every morning we latch on to a new toy that we HAVE to take to grandma’s – so cute πŸ™‚
5. Christian discovered where we keep his spare bears (blanket head he LOVES so I bought spares in case we lose one and I rotate them so I can wash them) and came out dragging all three saying “be be be” – looks like I need a new hiding spot!

Cousin love :)

This is another family I have had the pleasure of shooting a few times over the last couple of years – their boys have grown so much since I met them! This time they brought along their new cousin for a few shots – they loved holding her πŸ™‚



If you follow my blog you know I don’t post many black and white shots – I much prefer bright colors but these shots just screamed black and white to me πŸ™‚
