Peterson Family...{San Diego Family Photographer}

I know, I am behind. These next few are from my San Diego mini-sessions last Oct.
Wait, did you say LAST Oct? Yep, I did...right after I got home from shooting these bad boys I found out I was pregnant and the sickness came..and pretty much didn't leave until I delivered.
These are one of my very bestest friends children. I love her, I love them. Here are a few of my favs.

Nay Family...{San Diego Family Photographer}

Man, I always have the most adorable families...beautiful parents, beautiful kids, and a few Matilda Jane dresses, and we are in business.
This is another California mini-session...most of my clients do Christmas cards along with their session and I have to say it was one of my favorites!
Thanks Nay family...anytime you want to come out and play golf in Oregon, I have a good connection! :) (and us girls will shop, I also have a few connections there!)

PS. Business news!!! I am booked solid through June when I start my maternity leave. Any new sessions need to be in Aug/Sept. You can contact me if you want more info.

Larsen Family...

Why oh why is there always so much to do. Cut me a small break, I moved, I'm trying to make some friends, I'm trying to start a business (again), and still trying to be a mom..trying being the operative word.
Well, the list goes on and I've managed to successfully do about 3 of those things. HAHA. I won't tell you which ones..however let's just say that this beautiful little family is one of my new good friends. (see one off the list)
Isn't she adorable. I mean the whole family is...but I'm pretty sure I could fit most of them in my pocket. I always feel really blessed that I some how luck out to find amazing friends.
And did I mention that her second daughter is great friends with my Ella? Convenient no?
I promise, (mostly) that there is so many more to come..but I'm trying not to put up anyones Christmas card pictures BEFORE Christmas. That would be a bummer.
Plus, I will have to take a picture of the AMAZING frames that we ordered when they get here.
So Happy Thanksgiving, and let's cross our finger that I get my blogging act together.

Valentines Cards...

I mean really? Doesn't this beat the Barbie/Transformers/Hello Kitty Valentines cards?

If I have taken a picture of your cute kids, and you want the BESTEST cards around town, here is the LD. (low-down)

- 25 double-sided card
- with envelopes
- in beautiful pearl paper
- 25 dollars

I know, you love me, I love you too. Thank me after your kids class thinks you are the coolest. (hint: attach card on valentines bag for family and friends)

Here is a sneak peak of my Ella's....

Enyon Kiddie

So a few things. First I'm loving the brown-eyed kids..I'll be honest I have a lot of blue-eyed clients.
Second, we had to cancel all these session because it was supposed to be the biggest rain storm of the season..oh wait. Didn't RAIN.
Third, when we did reschedule it was somehow a heat wave at 94... degrees. ON THE BEACH.
Poor kids, poor mom, poor me...but stinking cute kids, even in the heat wave.
And finally, have you ever noticed how I start most of my sentences with SO?

Fa'anuna Kids

Holy Holy. I don't know what else to say but they are the most beautiful kids I've ever seen. I loved that they just hung out and rode their cool longboard. I seriously think someone should get them an agent. Pronto.

Johnson Girls

So a few things that I didn't account for on this session.
1. The bridge is beautiful but the slots in the bridge were big enough that a large adult could squeeze through. (NOT GOOD FOR RUNNING CHILDREN).
2. The second location had the greatest light and the cutest fence, until a girl going 80 (seriously) hit the guardrail right across from where we where shooting and mom's stress level went WAY up..okay, mine did too, but think about this, everyone stayed safe, they had great outfits on, and I had a large bag of candy.
GREAT OUTFITS + CANDY = makes all the bad go away...right? Love these girls!
