I was so happy to receive an e-mail from Katie a couple weeks ago, letting me know they were expecting their second baby and wanted me to document the end of their pregnancy again. What an honor! I love watching “my babies” grow up, and could not believe the adorable big girl big K has grown up to be! I cannot wait to meet their new addition, Tyler, this July!

C family, enjoy your sneak peek! It was great seeing you all today and I can’t wait to meet little T in July!

I met up with Jeremy, Danielle, and their gorgeous kids today for their Christmas session. This was a mini session, but I had to share an extra large sneak peek because I loved every single image. I had fun hanging out with your family today, I can’t wait to show you the rest of the gallery!

Today I met up with the C family for the third time! I first met them in July for their maternity portraits, then in August for baby J’s newborn photos, and today for their Christmas photos. I have loved watching their family grow in the few short months I’ve known them and hope that I can continue to document their two gorgeous boys as they grow. S and J, enjoy your sneak peek. I had a hard time narrowing it down!

By the way, Jessica has an AWESOME sense of style. I just love love love the way her family is dressed each time I see them.

I met with Chris, Lori, and Sarah (and Riley and Murphy too!) for their annual Christmas card photo session at the Claremont Colleges. Sarah definitely kept me on my toes, and I expected nothing different from a toddler.  : ) She is totally a daddy’s girl as well! I photographed her for her one year pictures, and it was so fun to see how her personality has really bloomed since then!

Chris and Lori, I had fun yesterday! Enjoy your sneak peek!

I met this family (who I’ve known since little A was a toddler!) for their annual family Christmas pictures this weekend in Huntington. It was a gorgeous warm day outside. As much as I love California weather, it’s November and still 80 degrees outside. I am more than ready for the peacoat and boots weather.

Anyways, we met at the pier and had some fun taking pictures around the beach.

Enjoy your sneak peek!

There’s just one word to sum up this session, FUN!

I met up with the L family this morning for some family photos. When Brandi hired me and let me know she was interested in some more lifestyle pictures of their boys in the pool I almost squealed! It was definitely something new for me, but I absolutely loved it.

We stared at the park and ended at their home. L family, enjoy your sneak peek!

I met up with Aundrea bright and early today again for some more maternity photos. We had fun exploring around Prado Regional Park in Chino Hills. The grass was SUPER wet, but the M family were troopers.

Here’s a sneak peek from your session, enjoy!

How wonderful does A look with only a month left until her due date?! The M family is expecting their new addition soon, and little T is going to be a big brother! He was quite the chatterbox during our session : )

M family, here’s just a few for now….

I met the “B” family last night for some maternity/family photos before the arrival of their baby girl. They were so cooperative with me and easy to work with.

S, you look gorgeous! I cannot wait to meet the little one SOON!

Enjoy your sneak peek!
