Meet Garrett.
While in Utah, I had to get my baby-fix. And nothing fits the bill more than little nephews. (In this case, Sharlyn’s.) At a few weeks old, Garrett was wide-awake and unwilling to miss anything. But he was also one of the calmest babies I have ever met. The whole session, he just hung out, waiting for me, his mom, his auntie, or his older sister to entertain him. (I’d like to think that we succeeded at that task.)
With a small army of women waiting on his every need, we were ready to start the session.
Cute baby? Check.
Gorgeous window light? Check.
Nice warm room, perfect for near-naked babies? Check!


I loved his hair. LOVED. I wish mine would do this.


Dad was feeling left out and joined us for some fun…








Okay, maybe he got a little bit sleepy toward the end…


Thank you, Christiansen Family, for inviting me into your home, letting me hang out with you all afternoon, and for feeding me wonderful Mexican food. Yum! It definitely was a big part of The Best Roadtrip Ever!

On a quick trip to Utah in July, I got a chance to catch up with my brother and his kids… holy cow! They grow so fast! This here is little Carson… the laughingest, happiest, drooliest, and arguably the cutest baby I’ve ever met.











Love you, Little Man!

You may remember Brittany and Sydney from a while back… a beautiful mother & daughter of whom I managed to get a few frames in a mini-session. Her husband, Jason, loved the images, but was super bummed not to be in any of them with his two favorite girls. So they scheduled a session with me to get some photographs with their WHOLE family for their home.






Brittany and Jason brought a friend to watch Sydney so we could get a few of just the two of them…









Thank you, Volden Family… your happiness is contagious. I can’t imagine a more perfect way to spend a sunny afternoon.
Some of you may remember little Brinn from her newborn session. Being that she was born three weeks early, she was so tiny – small enough to fit into one of Dad’s baseball caps. Fast forward a year and you will find one of the happiest little girls ever to grace this earth. She loves to explore the world around her and she has one of the biggest, most infectious grins I’ve ever seen. On the morning of Brinn’s birthday, we headed over to Old Town, Temecula to commemorate her special day.
Brinn has some of the longest lashes I’ve ever seen! And those baby blues are a heartstopper for sure!
For Brinn’s birthday, her parents went all out. Mom even planned this awesome Candy Bar with all kinds of neat treats for the guests. For the shoot, they presented Brinn with the most perfect lollipop I’ve ever seen. However, it didn’t stay perfect for long!
And, last but definitely not least, one of the whole family…
Congratulations on one whole year of being a family! Stay tuned for a post about Brinn’s party… it was awesome!
