{Orange County Family Photographer}- "F" Family

I have photographed this adorable family quite a few times and am extremely grateful for their loyalty and trust. They are definitely one of my favorite families! Their sweet little one is 1 year old and is now a walking machine. She is so tiny and fun, and so tough at the same time. I just adore her!! And big brother is a big bad first grader now. He is a great big brother, who loves his sister to pieces. Enjoy these Mom and Dad!! Thank you!! xoxo

Who needs Cake?? {Orange County Family Photographer}

Alternate title: Brookie the Cookie :)

Guess who is turning ONE!? This sweet little ANGEL we are all so proud of! A year ago we were praying for a miracle. And now we will be celebrating her first year of life. The power of prayer, postive thinking, and a loving, strong, faithful Family was all she needed. This little cookie is so much fun, so sassy and so stinkin' cute!! Her parents have allowed me to document her first year life, and I could not be any more honored. When I suggested a cake smash her Mommy had a different idea in mind, to go along with her "Milk & Cookies" themed party. I absolutely LOVE the way it turned out! Its different, its fun, and it keeps the theme tied together! Not too mention, she had a blast with those cookies!

Mommy & Me {Orange County Family Photographer}

I had a great time with this beautiful ladybug and her mommy! I LOVE this little girl! She is so much fun and so sassy. I will probably make a separate post of the pictures of her silly faces! (Oh, yea, and when she tried to spank me for being a bad girl) LOL!  Aren't they both just gorgeous! :)

Here is a picture of me and little LV on the day she was born! :) Awwww...she's growing so fast! (excuse the cell phone picture quality AND my hair!!)

Halloween Cuteness!! {Orange County Family Photographer}

This is seriously my favorite time of the year...I mean, I pretty much love the whole last part of the year October thru December..but October..seriously...Cute babies in the cutest costumes! I just love to see them all!! I've been friends with this pretty girl's Mommy for over ten years now, and I'm so happy that she chose me to take their family picture this year! This sweet little girl was not too fond of her wig...it took mommy and daddy trying it on a few times too to get her to let us put it on for a few minutes (I totally should post those pictures!) ;) But the ones we did get were so worth it. I saw her the next day and she didn't take the wig off (go figure!) Mommy and Daddy, hope you enjoy your pictures and this sneak peak!!

She is just too cute for words!

This one I'm sure will be Daddy's favorite...

 This one is MY favorite...

Such a beautiful family!!



Big Boy B! {Orange County Child Photographer}

This handsome boy, was so much fun to hang out with at the park! He has such a contagious little grin and laugh! His beautiful baby blues did me in from the minute we met! I couldn't wait to get the session started and get some of these pictures up on the screen just to see those eyes!! Of course, his mommy and daddy were absolutely amazing at getting him to laugh. They are such a sweet family, and I hope I get to see lots more of them. Thank you K family for letting me spend some time with your beautiful baby boy! It was a very lovely Sunday in the beautiful park you introduced me to! (which I am sure I will be spending A LOT of time in!) ;) Happy Anniversary Mommy and Daddy!! I hope you enjoy your sneak peek!

I LOVE this chubby cheeked, dimpled, perfect baby face!! I just want to squeeze him. :)

This is the blue steel...

Seriously lady, can you stop...

So many to share, I just had to post more...

Weekend in Arizona!

Last weekend, I went to Yuma for some fun in the sun with a group of my cousins. We had so much fun at my cousin Valerie's house, swimming and relaxing. Unfortunately, not everyone was there..we would need a couple of houses for that! Those that were not there, we missed you!! We are truly blessed as a Family to all be so close to each other, and to love each other as much as we do. I cannot imagine growing up without them, or what it would be like to never see any of them, and not really know who they are. There are a lot of us, but it's really special to see the unique bonds that we've all built. Each one of them has played a very important part of my personal development at different times in my life, and I have so many memories of each of them that I cherish. Now that we are all adults I think we have even more fun and it's really awesome to see some of them as parents with their beautiful babies. We have the best Greema in the world, the coolest parents, uncles and aunts, and we will always have each other. I look forward to the future and watching what unfolds for each of us...and most of all, I look forward to sharing it with all of you. My FAMILY. I love you. Here are some of the pictures I took of the super cute, and way cool kids! :) xoxo
