Ms. Tish

Oh Okay!!!How cute are these girls?? An hour and a half straight soccer.... now that's tough. The girls seem to be having a BLAST learning all the secret moves in soccer from their fine coach, Ms. Tish. I cannot begin to say enough wonderful things about Tish. Ms. Humble gold medal recipient. I feel so blessed to have gotten to know her as a mom, and friend. Thanks for teaching our kids Tish!

More Little Miss "R"

Little Miss "R"

Ok wow... first off the Montage is such a BEAUTIFUL place to shoot. But it's even better when you have an adorable subject to go with. I felt like I was in Hawaii (Rain and all). smile! The Padilla's were troopers. I mean a 9 am shoot, rain and all they were there in full gear , NO coffee in hand, but the dog and their beautiful daughter Rachel. I had a blast rolling around in dog dew and trying my best to capture their little sweetheart. I am pleased with the results and I hope mom and dad are too!

You're gonna miss this...too

Maybe when my "babies" are teens I will state this phrase differently...but today I try to value each stage along the way. Oh how they grow sooo fast!

You're gonna miss this...Emerald Bay

What a great night! Emerald Bay, anyday is all I have to say. I am OC native and never been here till today. And boy do I feel as though I have missed out all these years. I live on "the other side of the bay" and have my favorite spots. But WOW! This takes the cake. It's the middle of summer and not a soul in sight. A photographers dream...not to mention some VERY special clients! Just listening to mommy Kirsten... I had to remind myself as she shared "tough teenage"stories. "you're gonna miss this " when they are gone and living on their own. What BEAUTIFUL teenagers these kids were!

More twin shots....

Just a fun spin on some more photos of these cutie pies!

Twin Girls

There is something special about twins. They spend 9 months in the womb together and then once they arrive they are separated. Then for this photoshoot we brought them back together and they naturally just grabbed on to one another. It was precious.

Mike and Tracy's wedding

It was a delight to photograph and document this special day for these 2. With a baby on the way they have so much too look forward to. Sleepless nights, teething , diapers...ha ha JK There is soo much good that comes with having your own child...All the best to you both!

Darling mommy to be "Angie" just glowing.These 2 are going to make fabulous parents.  I felt as though I've known them for years

Ms. Steffie's Star swimmers

This summer has just flown by. My goal for the summer was to be able to get my 3 year old "water hater" to actual learn ow to swim. Mission accomplished all thanks to Steffie and her fabulous lessons. Her daughter Kirsten too is great! I can not say enough nice things about these two. It took 2 months (everyday) and alot of $$but is was worth EVERY penny. So here are some of my favorite photos from swimming lessons.
