Sweet Sophia | Valencia Baby Photographer

12 day old Sophia came for her new­born pic­tures today. She was so sweet and calm, just not so much a sleeper. Mom and Dad assured me she sleeps all day at home, just not so much today! Isn’t that how it goes? As soon as we think we have them fig­ured out they change every­thing on us. For 2 hours Sophia stayed awake while we fed her, rubbed her eye brows tried every trick. Finally she decided to sleep and boy was she out! We were able to have a lit­tle hat fash­ion show and she was a per­fect model. Enjoy the sneak peek, much more to come…

Expectation | Santa Clarita Maternity Photographer

Today I got to meet the loveli­est fam­ily expect­ing their third child in Sep­tem­ber! Avery and Caleb are going to be the sweet­est big sis­ter and brother to baby girl and lots of fun too :) Enjoy the sneak peek, much more to come…

Summer of Love | Santa Clarita Family Photographer

Or maybe sum­mer of scream­ing tantrums? I took my kids out yes­ter­day for some new pic­tures of the four of them as sum­mer is so quickly wind­ing down and to com­mem­o­rate my oldest’s 13th birth­day (Happy Birth­day Eric, you are one fan­tas­tic kid!) I’ve been want­ing to take them over to Billy’s surf shop in Newhall to get some pic­tures in front of their super cool wall. My lit­tlest makes tak­ing pic­tures so unbe­liev­ably mis­er­able it’s actu­ally com­i­cal. He flails, screams, runs away while the other kids try their darnedest to keep it together. I have never had a client’s child behave as badly as my own, my happy, joy­ful boy turns into a bel­liger­ent lit­tle grem­lin as soon as I try and get him to stand with his broth­ers and sis­ter. Some­how I always seem to get an amaz­ing shot of them but boy do I pay for it, really they could drive a girl to drink. So here’s “the shot” and some out­takes to show you what pho­tograph­ing them is really like :)

Pretty Eloise | Valencia Newborn Photographer

Meet lit­tle Eloise, isn’t she gor­geous! We had a lovely pho­to­shoot, she was a sleepy girl in and out in an hour and a half. Enjoy the sneak peek, much more to come…

Sweet Brady | Valencia Baby Photographer

Today Brady was back for his birth­day pic­tures! It’s hard to believe it’s been a whole year since his new­born shoot. Brady’s mom was a lit­tle wor­ried he might be shy but he warmed up to be in no time :) The last pic­ture absolutely cracks me up, that’s Brady’s “are we done yet???” Enjoy the sneak peek, much more to come…

Handsome Cassel | Santa Clarita Baby Photographer

You may remem­ber Cas­sel from his new­born pho­to­shoot, today he was back for some 2 month shots. 2 months may be the very hard­est age to cap­ture because babies this age are just, well, unpre­dictable! My shoot with Cas­sel was brief but just look at all the great expres­sions he gave me! I think Cas­sel is a lit­tle ladies man in the mak­ing, what a shame­less flirt :) Oh, and this lit­tle chris­ten­ing tuxedo was made for Cas­sel by hand so obvi­ously it had to be fea­tured. Even pouty Cas­sel is adorable! Enjoy the sneak peek, much more to come…

Pretty Riley | Valencia Baby Photographer

Today Riley was back for her 6 month pic­tures, make that 7 and a half months… her mommy wanted her sit­ting up well :) You may remem­ber Riley from her new­born and 3 month pho­to­shoots. We had a great time try­ing to get her to sit up and catch­ing her lit­tle per­son­al­ity. Appar­ently sit­ting in a bas­ket with a silly hat is hilar­i­ous! Enjoy the sneak peek, much more to come…

United | Santa Clarita Portrait Photographer

If you know me well or fol­low my blog you know I DON’T take wed­dings :) The excep­tion is when my dear friend Angie of Illu­mi­nes­cence Pho­tog­ra­phy in Pasadena asks for back up. We had a fab­u­lous time cap­tur­ing the mar­riage on Frank and Siu at the Lang­ham in Pasadena. It was a beau­ti­ful venue, won­der­ful peo­ple, gor­geous day. Here’s a few highlights…

Brothers | Valencia Child Photographer

Meet sweet broth­ers Jett and Reef! Their dad asked me to get some pic­tures of his boys while they’re here for the sum­mer. Such hand­some and fun guys, we had a great time tak­ing their pic­tures. Enjoy the sneak peek, much more to come…

The Graduate | Valencia Baby Photographer

It’s hard to believe lit­tle JD is grad­u­at­ing from my baby plan! He started with me at 10 weeks and we’re fin­ish­ing up at 18 months. He’s been a joy to pho­to­graph, here’s a review of his year in pic­tures…
