Miss Tori {Big Bear Lake Arrowhead Photographer}

I recently had the pleasure of mentoring another photographer and Miss T answered the call of duty to model for us while I taught posing and lighting techniques. There were times of boredom for her while I taught S different things but she happily filled the void by playing bubbles with my little Ava. What a sweetheart! She did a wonderful job and I'm excited for her that S is such a great photographer and fast learner because she'll have gobs of gorgeous images from this shoot. Thank you so much Miss T for coming out and modeling for us. You're simply beautiful and my camera loved you! Big Bear Senior Portraits Photographer Photos Photography High School Photos Headshots

Madison Ross 11 days New {Big Bear Lake Arrowhead Photographer}

Sweet little Madison. I really didn't think that her parents could make another baby as sweet and beautiful as her older sister Kaitlyn but they proved me wrong. She got an extra helping of both sweet AND beautiful for sure. And lucky for me she had a healthy dose of "sleepy" too. I don't usually travel these days for newborn shoots but this family has an actual carnival on their sprawling property. Not just a few carnival rides set up, like I thought, but it's actually landscaped and layed out beautifully and proffessionally. They just amaze me. I wish I could be their kid or at least a relative! lol. Her Daddy entertained my two kiddos for hours out there on the rides while I photographed Madison. He's so patient. They had the best time. Dear G family, you guys are really inspiring and I'm happy to know you. Thank you for coming back time and time again for me to be able to capture all your special milestones. I don't take it lightly, it's really special to see. Blessings!! xoxo Southern California Newborn Photography Photos Photographer Child Family Photos Big Bear Lake Arrowhead Antelope Valley Lancaster Palmdale

Storybook Sophia {Big Bear Lake Antelope Valley Photographer}

Sweet, dear, Sophia. I love working with her. It's really inspirational for me when I sit down to edit and I feel like I'm on another adventure all over again, with a smile from ear to ear. That's a treasure for me as an artist. I planned this session around her. Shopping for clothing and items that would fit her and it worked out magically. Etsy was my shop for the dress, vintage crayons, and coloring book. And I collected little things along the way. But mostly all I needed was Sophia and some beautiful mountain light... and my sweet husband who ran back and forth to the car to get all the things I needed. Thanks hubs! ;) I hope you enjoy looking at these as much as I enjoyed taking them. Thank you Sophia for being always being wonderful to photograph! xoxo

Sleepy and Sweet, Baby Audrina {Inland Empire Newborn Photographer}

I was so happy to finally meet baby Audrina. Mom and Dad came for a visit to show off their new little one and I was able to grab some shots of her. She slept so amazingly. It was a really big blessing that she slept so deep and for so long. I think she must have known that we all needed that right then. She's so beautiful and I loved talking to her and cuddling her. Dad was such a big help too, thanks Dad! So without further adieu... Little Audrina, her big sis, and her sweet mom and dad...

Little Miracle {Inland Empire Newborn Photographer}

Sweet baby Greta is another little miracle that I had the blessing of photographing recently. I met her momma and daddy a few months ago when I did their maternity session in Beaumont. We had such a good time and the story of little Greta made me all the more excited to meet her. When her big first photo session came though she had other ideas of how it should go. She didn't sleep very much and I think altitude did a regulating magic trick on her little tummy. In the meantime though, I was able to pose her Mommy's first bear, given to her by her Grandma when she was just a baby. What!!?? I HAD to keep photographing! lol! A and C, thank you for coming up here with your bundle of love and hanging out with me for the day. C.... sorry about your pants!!! :) Talk to you soon! xoxo
