Sarah’s mom won the highest bid for a photo session with me at the Soleado Elementary School silent auction last fall – we have been trying to make this session happen for a while! Well worth the wait – Sarah was an absolute delight! She was so fun to photograph. So smart too… she speaks three languages!

So much fun! This was a surprise for Dad for Father’s Day – I felt like a stalker waiting for his car to pull out of the driveway so I could go in. Kai played the piano for me, ran around the yard, cuddled with Mom a bit, played with bubbles, and I got lots of great images. Baby Zaia was incredibly good – although she was really awake for most of it, she was good natured and happy. I seriously can’t even believe that she was born recently – her Mom looked absolutely amazing!

We had a lot of fun really early in Manhattan Beach at Metlox Center before the crowds rolled in on a Sunday morning. It was a little cold and foggy, but the kids were troopers for me. Erin didn’t sit still for more than 3 seconds, but the boys did a great job of keeping her happy for me.

Are they cute or what? These guys are one of my favorite families – this was my second time photographing the twins, but my first time with little Will. We had a great time, and they were all so good, especially Katherine, who was recuperating from pink eye a few days before.

Loved meeting this family – can’t believe we haven’t met before around school etc., considering we realized we are friends with a lot of the same people. It was a pleasure – Mom is gorgeous, the boys were awesome, and Dad was a great sport.

A few of my favorites from a recent session with some fun grandparents and their four grandchilden under the Hermosa Beach Pier

I need to go get Jason one of these hats! Gavin was loving his cool hat. I had a great time talking baseball and Wimpy Kid with Gavin, and getting some fun family images as well.

Blake + Grant | Palos Verdes baby photographer

I didn’t get a chance to blog these earlier! I adore these images… there isn’t much better than a big brother being completely absorbed in his new little brother. Pose together? Of course not. But, check him out and smother him with kisses? Sure! Patience generally wins in the end.

There is something to be said for shooting a session first thing in the morning with young kids. These two could not have been happier!

This may be one of my favorites so far this year – he was showing me his favorite trucks and just hanging out on the couch.

Jake + John

Baby John is the newest addition to the family, and we had a blast watching him explore his surroundings walking around the neighborhood. I photographed his big brother at the same age so it was especially fun to compare their two personalities. I absolutely love this family, and it was great to see them again.

Joan – you are an absolutely amazing woman! I am so honored to be able to document this part of your life.

Doesn’t Jake look cool in front of this truck? I loved this image in black and white too, but the color version won in the end.
