Old Town Family Shoot

Yesterday I met up with one of my all time favorite family’s to do an urban photo shoot with them.  They are so easy going and you can tell how much they love each other.  It shows in the way that they interact with one another, in their smiles and even in the way they treat me!

It doesn’t exactly hurt that they’re so good looking!

Welcome Baby Cameron! Born 09-09-09

Two of my best friends had a very special 09-09-09.  Their precious little boy was born so Mishelle and I dropped by the hospital to see him when he was barely an hour old!  I love this shot of Sara and Cameron.

Congratulations to two wonderful parents!  I love you guys…

The Michaels Family

One of the great joys of doing what I do is capturing memories for families.  And what’s even better is becoming the family’s “photographer” in that I have done multiple shoots with them as their family grows.  I met up with the Michael’s when their first little guy was born, and it was awesome to get to do some more photos of them with the addition of a little sister!


You guys have a beautiful family!  Thanks for letting me be part of preserving some memories…

The Williams Family on Furlough!

Last week I had the opportunity to hang out with some old friends and shoot some pictures of their beautiful family.  I met Chet, well, before I can remember!  I have known him since preschool when we met at Calvary Church in Santa Ana.  Now the Williams live in Ecuador where they are missionaries working with the Huaorani people.  They have been back in the states on furlough and so we got together to get them some updated photos.

love that beautiful afternoon golden light!

these are some seriously photogenic kids!

The shot above was my favorite of the afternoon.  I love it when kids’ personalities come through the photo!

amazing to see some wildflowers already popping up

Chet and Katie, I had so much fun hanging out with you guys!  Your kids are so beautiful and you are an amazing family.  I think these photos truly reveal the closeness and love that you guys share!  The Williams family are going to have their own website soon, so when it goes live, I’ll be sure to post a link!

 

 

Elliott Family – Studio Session

I recently shot some studio portraits of a great family with their 3 kids and their dog!  It was a lot of fun and the pictures came out great.  In case any of you out there were wondering about studio portraits, I shoot them here at my house.  It’s not what I usually do, but I really enjoy it because it stretches me a bit.  Shooting in the studio is a totally different animal than going out and shooting natural light environmental portraits.  But it’s important to me to know and I take pride in being able to work in a number of different settings!  So here are a few of my favorites…
