I can’t believe it’s been two years since we first met little Evan at his newborn shoot. Eli, of course, was a pro at photo shoots (he had his newborn shoot 5 years ago). There’s nothing better than seeing brothers playing and laughing together! Apparently, big brother Eli was REALLY funny…just look at the way Evan reacts to him! Thanks for being such a big help, Eli! Evan, there were so many wonderful photos of you with the biggest smile, it was very hard to choose my photos for this sneak peek.

I enjoyed doing our shoot at this “retro” playground. I haven’t seen playground equipment like that in decades…it brought back fond memories of my childhood. I loved the rocket ship, and so did the boys 🙂 Thanks for an exciting day at the park, Mom and Dad! Here’s your sneak peek:

Happy belated 2021!  I hope you are all well and safe.  The past year has been full of challenges for everyone, but we are all seeing that light at the end of the tunnel  🙂  I’ve conducted intermittent photoshoots over the past couple of months, staggering my shoots and complying with the applicable rules imposed by our pandemic restrictions.  I have scheduled, canceled, and rescheduled shoots… based off of the restrictions.  Thank you to so many of you for being so patient and understanding!  I am currently scheduling locations shoots, following the current state restrictions.  Please contact me if you are interested in scheduling a shoot and would like to discuss how these restrictions will impact our shoot size and location.  Now on to the photo shoot…

It’s been a tough year for our Seniors.  Most graduation activities have been either canceled or modified over the past year.  College plans have been altered, and families have been affected.  Even during this time of hardship, positivity and love have kept us afloat.  I loved seeing cousins Kayla and Alyssa together.  Their smiles and laughter reminded me of how resilient these teens are.  They are on the verge of starting a new chapter in their lives.  The location was perfect, we couldn’t have asked for a better day to do our shoot (it rained the day before and the day after our shoot).  We were blessed with beautiful dresses, gorgeous hair and infectious smiles.  Thank you girls (and moms!) for a great afternoon.  I hope all of you are safe and healthy, and that you had a wonderful Easter weekend!   Here’s your sneak peek.

Happy 1st birthday, E!  Our current situation unfortunately did not allow for a huge birthday celebration, but that didn’t stop her from flashing us the biggest smile!  Loved her cute little birthday outfit.  I also really liked that “1” birthday balloon and that big white balloon!  Thanks for bringing those to our session, Mom and Dad!  I can’t believe that she is running around and exploring.  Didn’t we just do her newborn and 4 month shoot?!  Time flies, especially when you’re spending it with such a delightful little one.  Thank you for being so easy to work with! Mom and Dad, get all the snuggles you can now!  Congratulations on your first year together.  May you have many more wonderful years to come  🙂  Here’s your sneak peek:

Little did we know what would happen within the next week.  This was the last photo shoot I did before our state implemented the “Shelter in Place” order.  The orders were given within the next week.  At least it was a beautiful afternoon, with an equally amazing family.  Mom was referred by another family that we did a Senior Portrait shoot with.  We are so fortunate to receive the best referrals from our clients.  Thank you!  Pierce, it was great meeting you and your family.  I know this is a very unusual Senior year for you, but it is definitely a memorable one.  I’m keeping my fingers crossed that you and your classmates will be able to celebrate your final high school year safely.  Luckily, we had the opportunity to meet you…and the timing couldn’t have been any better!  Congratulations on your upcoming graduation! Wishing you the best in the upcoming years.  Here’s your sneak peek:

I hope you all are staying healthy and safe during these unprecedented times.  Please take care of your loved ones, and let them know how much they impact your life.  In order to ensure the safety of our clients, we have postponed our shoots at the current time.  Once the quarantine has been lifted, we will resume scheduling shoots.   I will continue to post shoots that took place prior to the quarantine (some were holiday shoots)…so more smiles to come  🙂

This Senior Portrait shoot was done at the end of February.  Kaimana was incredibly easygoing.  His posing came effortlessly, and he was open to both beach and forest shots.  The beach was relatively empty, and it wasn’t as windy as we’ve seen it in previous months.  I know that this isn’t the Senior year that you expected, but knowing your positivity, you will see the silver lining in these challenging months ahead. Thank you for your patience!  Here is your sneak peek:

M arrived to her shoot looking radiant and confident!  She was beautiful…hair and makeup were perfect!  She absolutely glowed.  We tried two different color combinations (I thought she looked great in both)!  The part I love most about studio professional head shots, is the excitement my clients have after their shoot.  M, you did an amazing job.  Thank you for being so relaxed and easy to work with!  Your heart is as big as your gorgeous smile.  Here are a few photos from your shoot:

Little Conner was the third sibling in his family to do a newborn shoot with us!  It seems like we just did Kaycie’s shoot (click HERE to see her newborn shoot). We also did Cameron’s shoot about 4 years ago (click HERE to see Cameron’s newborn shoot).  Mom and Dad, you must be doing something right, because all three of your children were smilers!  Conner had the same jet black hair that his brother and sister had, and his little fingers and toes were just adorable.  He was very awake for the first half of his shoot, but he settled down for the rest of his photos…he made the CUTEST dinosaur!  There’s just something about seeing a little one all curled up and sleeping peacefully.  I hope he was a sound sleeper when he got home for you, Mom and Dad!  Thanks for sharing Conner, Cameron and  Kaycie with us!  Congratulations to your newest addition.  He is a precious one!  Here is your sneak peek:

One of our favorite families is back!  Click HERE to see their previous shoot with us.  We scheduled their shoot a little later than we typically do, because we waited for Jalen’s school break.  When Jorel (“Little Ham”) got out of the car, I had to look twice.  Not only was he taller than me, but his hair was just stunning.  Where did all of that hair come from?!  I can’t call you “Little Ham” anymore…you’re all grown up! Jansen and Jalen brought their smiles and hilarious sense of humor (this is what makes this family so special to us), and Jasper lost his two front teeth!  Where did the time go?   As always, we had a fun and fast moving shoot.  Everyone is always so easy to work with!  Jasper was fully of happy smiles (I think he wanted to show off his missing teeth, LOL!), and the sense of “family” just made everything so right.  Thank you for coming back to us every year, Mom and Dad!  This was technically our 10th annual shoot with you!  Click HERE to see their first shoot with us. It’s been a wonderful decade together!  May your 2020 bring you even more amazing memories  🙂  Here’s your sneak peek:

We were so happy for R!  It was just over two years ago that we did his newborn shoot, and now it’s his new baby brother’s turn.  Click HERE to see R’s newborn shoot. We couldn’t wait to meet little B.  He was just as charming as his big brother.  B had the tiniest little fingers, and the cutest pouty lips.  He liked to stretch his arms and legs out while he was awake, so we did a bit of swaddling during the shoot.  Once he was asleep, he was out.  Such a little angel…those angel wings were the perfect prop for B.  Mom and Dad, it was great seeing you all again.  So glad we were able to schedule your shoot!  Congratulations!!!  Here’s your sneak peek:
