The second I saw what this family was wearing I knew it was going to be fun. They are so super cute. Mom and Dad seem like they were just married yesterday, you can just feel the connection between them. Very sweet. And the boys, oh goodness, so much personality! They worked the cameras ALL.DAY. I didn't hear them complain and they were having so much fun. Here are some of my faves...
When I said yesterday was crazy busy and long...I wasn't lieing. It was exhausting. There were some perks though. If you are a people watcher like I am then you would have had a bang up time. ;) There were so many "artistic" personalities swarming about and I truly enjoy watching people interact with others..and even sometimes themselves. But one of the highlights for me was the wedding session. I didn't know I would love weddings when I discovered my passion. In fact it took a little time shooting them before I realized that I truly love it. And I do love it. I love couples in love, fresh, new, love. It's beautiful and to capture it is magical. So here are a few of my favorites from yesterday... Enjoy and thanks for stopping by my blog!

Yesterday was a busy and long day. A good day though...I think. Yes I'm sure it was.
I went down to Seal Beach with another photographer friend (thank you for driving Laura!) and we hung out with about 50 other photographer's for the day. We had lots of models to shoot and this was one of them. While other togs' were crowded around a pretty baby girl this little guy, baby A, was eating away and enojoying the loving arms of his beautiful mama. I couldn't help but pull them aside and take a few shots. He's so stinkin' cute I could eat him!

I just couldn't help but share a few more of this tiny sweet baby. I had a lot of fun taking her out to locations. I only wish I could do it all day all the time. So much fun! Thanks for stopping by! Enjoy!
This location is magical at the right time of day, this was not that time though. I had to be really careful of the sun and sweet Aunt Annette is off to the right holding up a giant 5x6 reflector. I wouldn't be too surprised if her arms were a little sore today. Thanks again Annette!
This location was in someone's front yard. It was tricky to shoot since right behind the baby was the owner's truck and house so I didn't have very many angle options. When we pulled up the owner was in her yard pulling weeds from among this native flower. She was gracious enough to let us sort of step all over them (even though we were careful).

This little beauty was driven 1.5 hours from Riverside by her sweet Mama and Auntie to visit me today. We had to keep the session in the mid-afternoon to make sure that it would still be warm enough for baby Camryn to be outside. It was tricky to find some good light among the harsh sunlight but we managed to find little pockets here and there. Her Aunt was the best shade maker for me too when she held my giant reflector up to block the sun from the baby. Thanks girls for coming today! It was so nice to meet you and photograph baby Camryn. She's beautiful and you are truly blessed!
Here is just one from today....

A few weeks ago my hubby gave me the thumbs up to go ahead and get a new lens. It's a special lens that would be just perfect for weddings, especially those heart filled candid moments. So to save a few Ben Franklins (hundreds) :) I bought one used. Well the camera supply store didn't really know what a quality portrait should consist of I guess and sold me a lens that had been dropped! Gasp. The lens weighs like 40lbs! Okay so maybe not 40 but it weighs a lot and it's as long as Pinnochio's nose...AFTER he lied. It's huge. So sadly I had to return it and wait for the new replacement but one thing I've learned with age is that just because a time seems bad doesn't mean it actually is....there could be something better just ahead. And yeee haw! This lens is the Daddy of lenses. I love it already and of course bribed the kids to let me take their pictures. These are a few of my faves with the new lens and the mini-bribery shoot.
