8 month photoshoot for Amelia | Temecula baby photographer

September 9, 2023

I’m so lucky to get to work with Amelia and her family this year as she is on my Baby Milestone Plan, doing photoshoots every 2 months up to her 1st birthday! The last time I saw her was for her half year / 6 month photoshoot. She is always so much fun to photograph, and loaded with the cutest expressions. Her parents brought some Star Wars “friends” along which made for some extra adorable photos. I can’t wait for her Halloween themed photoshoot next month!

Baby Eliam | Loma Linda California Newborn Photographer

September 9, 2023

Cute little Eliam is a lucky little guy to be surrounded by so much love from his family.

Sweetest little babe | Escondido Newborn Photographer

July 1, 2023

After moving to California a couple of years ago, starting from scratch with everything was daunting. One of the many professionals I had to find was a new hairstylist. Fortunately, I found Carmelita, who is not only super talented but always fun to chat with too. I was so excited when she asked me to photograph her sweet new baby boy, Marciano. He is a total dream baby! I’m so glad they made the drive from Escondido to my home studio in Menifee for his photos.
As a newborn photographer, there is no greater honor than being entrusted with capturing a family’s newest addition. My goal is to create images that capture the essence of this special time in a family’s life. Every family is so special and I’m so glad I got to work this new little family!

Graham’s 1st Birthday Photoshoot! | Southern California Cake Smash Photographer

June 29, 2023

I was so excited to see cutie Graham and his family again after getting to photograph Graham as a newborn last year. I loved that his momma specifically requested black and white portraits. Black and white portraits have a timeless quality, and, as the great Canadian photographer Ted Grant said, “When you photograph people in black and white, you photograph their souls.” 1

Graham has the most stunning eyes and the cutest cheeks! I loved capturing his expressions and photographing his cake smash experience, and I was so happy they drove from the Temecula area to see me for his photoshoot.

As a photographer specializing in baby and child photography, I understand the importance of capturing those precious moments that will be cherished for a lifetime. Whether it’s a newborn’s first photoshoot or a child’s first birthday, I strive to create beautiful and timeless portraits that will be treasured for years to come.
