Sisters Photoshoot | Menifee Kids Photographer

There’s something so special about the bond between sisters—and this duo made their sisters photoshoot so much fun from the moment they stepped in front of the camera. Big sister kept telling her little sister how cute she looked — it was so sweet! They both looked absolutely adorable. Big sister is turning 5 this summer, and we couldn’t let the moment pass without snapping a few birthday portraits to celebrate the occasion.

Scroll through for some of my favorite shots from this darling session!

A Joy-Filled Cousins Session | Canyon Lake Photographer

This adorable crew of cousins (two sets of siblings) came to me after winning a session I donated to Gifts of Joy through a silent auction. From the moment they arrived, the session was bursting with energy and chaos— it was so much fun and they are all such beautiful kids! Adding to the joy, both baby girls had recently turned one, so I made sure to capture some photos to celebrate their first birthday milestones too.

I’m also grateful to have the opportunity to support an incredible cause. From their website, “Gifts of Joy is a 100% volunteer-run nonprofit dedicated to bringing joy, hope, and encouragement to children battling cancer and their families. What began in 2018 as a small toy drive in Temecula, CA has grown into a multi-state movement, now serving 14 hospital units across Southern California and Tennessee. Through toy drives, care packages, and hospital support programs, we strive to uplift spirits, ease burdens, and remind every child and family that they are seen, loved, and never alone. Hospitals now rely on our year-round gifts and encouragement initiatives to bring comfort and support when it’s needed most.”

4th Birthday Photos | Menifee Kids Photographer

This little beauty lit up the camera with her darling personality, gorgeous hair, and the cutest smile! I had so much fun capturing her 4th birthday photos—it was such a fun session from start to finish. I loved every minute of capturing her special milestone.

Birthday sessions like this are such a sweet way to freeze time and celebrate who they are right now. Four is one of my favorite ages, always such an extra cute phase in childhood!

I offer two childhood sessions: a Deluxe Child Session or a Mini Child Session...book a special photoshoot for your little one(s) today!

5th Birthday Photoshoot

I’m a few months behind on posting — it’s great to be busy, but I’m glad to have a moment to catch up on sharing some sweet photos! I’m excited to finally showcase this cutie’s 5th birthday photoshoot. The setup was simple and sweet, with a giant pink balloon to announce that she’s turning 5 — such a big and important milestone! She was so sweet being the star of the show, and I hope she felt as special as she is.

Why Birthday Photoshoots Matter: Capturing Milestones That Fly By

Kids grow faster than we can sometimes keep up with—and birthdays are one of the most meaningful ways to pause and take it all in. It’s a special way to freeze time for just a moment and capture the growth and personality of your child at that specific age.

Every birthday marks a new chapter. Photos celebrate these milestones and tell the story of who your child is becoming, year by year. A birthday photoshoot gives you and your child lasting keepsakes to look back on.

Second birthday photoshoot

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.

Kamila’s 2nd birthday photos

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!

Oh Two-dles! E’s 2nd birthday Mickey photoshoot

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!

Rylie’s 4th birthday photoshoot

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.
