A year flew by and I got to see cutie T again for her second birthday photoshoot, after getting to do her 1st birthday photos last year. 2nd birthday photos are such a fun transition between babyhood and childhood, and she is such a little beauty and so full of spunk! She loved the heart sunglasses she found in my studio (I always have lots of props and outfits out to choose from, and the “2” balloon was a hit too) and she brought the cutest pretty in pink outfit.
Two. It can be a tricky age to photograph, but Kamila has always been such a fun and photogenic little beauty, she once again pulled off a gorgeous milestone photoshoot, full of smiles and personality and gorgeous portraits. I’ve been so fortunate to photograph her since she was 2 months old, and again for 6 months, 9 months and 1st birthday. I couldn’t believe another year had flew by when her momma reached out to schedule her 2 year photo session. Enjoy Kamila’s 2nd birthday photos!
If these beauties look familiar, it’s because I’ve been so lucky to photograph them a few times before including another sisters photoshoot and Riley’s 1st birthday. This time around, it was Riley’s 2nd birthday. It was a super quick session, and I got to capture a few portraits to commemorate the special day.
Adorable E’s 2nd birthday photoshoot was so much fun! Photographing two-year-olds can be challenging, but once cutie E warmed up his smiles were contagious. His dad pulled out all the stops to bring out those cheerful grins. It’s clear that little E is a big fan of Mickey Mouse, which made the session even more fun. I loved meeting him and his parents!
Happy birthday Rylie! Rylie’s 4th birthday photoshoot couldn’t have been more perfect because she is an absolute doll. She walked in and said “My name is Rylie. I’m ready for my photos!”. After raising my own 3 kids and working with little ones for many years, I’m confident to say 4 years old is hands down the cutest age ever, and Rylie proved that point in spades.
I started off with taking photos of her beautiful family. Her little brother is two years old, which is always the trickiest age to photograph, but it all worked out! It was also fun getting shots of just Rylie and each of her parents to capture the bond each of them have. She and her brother loved playing with the balloons I had set up, and I made sure to get as many portraits of beautiful Rylie as she’d allow (which were many, because she was so cooperative, expressive, and as cute as can be).
While I mainly work with infants, I always love when clients contact me to schedule photos for their children as they grow! Every child is so special and unique, and a birthday is an especially fun time to book a photoshoot to celebrate. I highly recommend reaching out to discuss scheduling a special photoshoot for your little one(s)! Read more about my Child Photography Sessions here.
After moving to Southern California a few years ago, I took a break for almost a year and finally opened my studio again after settling into our new home. One of my very first new clients here was big brother Ryan when he was just a newborn himself! When he came back this time around, he had just turned two years old and welcomed his new baby brother, Cody. Ryan was such a champ for family and sibling photos. I didn’t even have to coax him, he was so happy to join in for the photos and snuggle his baby brother with so much love.
I never quite know how things will go when a two year old is part of the photoshoot (anyone who has ever met a toddler knows that they usually have their own ideas, haha!), but I couldn’t have asked for things to go more smoothly. I absolutely loved this newborn photoshoot and I hope you will too! Baby Cody looks so much like his big brother, and he was such a dream for his newborn session.
Breaking news: Benjamin is going to be a big brother! I got to meet this cutie earlier this year for his first birthday photoshoot. Can you believe this little guy with an amazing head of hair and photogenic smile is only a little over a year old?! I was so excited when Benjamin’s mom contacted me to say she’s expecting baby number two. And I was even more thrilled when she told me about the creative theme she chose to announce the exciting news!
For this special pregnancy announcement session, Benjamin’s momma brought along a cool car, a newspaper announcing her big news, a dashing suit and an even more dashing big-brother-to-be. It was such a fun theme to bring to life, and I loved making it become a reality for this growing family. Benjamin was a total natural in front of the camera as always. Congratulations to Benjamin and his parents on their wonderful news. Wishing them all the best as they get ready for their newest arrival!
I got meet Tatum last year for her baby sister’s 1st birthday photos, and I was thrilled when her momma reached out again to schedule big sister Tatum’s 4th birthday photoshoot. Tatum’s birthday is coming up in May, and her mom wanted to make sure we captured this special milestone. Her mom also wanted to include some family photos, and what a gorgeous family they are! As the session drew to a close, we let Tatum be herself to dance and have fun — 4 years old is such a fun age!
These cute boys are my next door neighbors. What adorably sweet brothers and best friends! I loved Theo’s “One of a Kind” pajamas…such a great reminder that all of these sweet little ones are so unique and I’m so fortunate to capture their photos!
This beautiful family kicked off my holiday sessions at the Wickerd Christmas Tree Farm this year. It was so fun to learn they live in my neighborhood, and little Benny is as cute as it gets!
