Happy Birthday Wyatt!
I can’t believe it has already been a year! Time flies by. Mom, big brother Davis, and the birthday boy himself, came in for his first birthday session. It was the last of the six sessions we have had over the last year. Our Babies First Year includes 6 photo sittings and a 20 page leather bound album. One of my all time favorite albums was the one Belle Amie Studios created for Wyatt’s older brother, Davis, of his first year. By the looks of this cutie I am sure I will have another favorite. I have gotten a chance to really get to know Wyatt over this past year for he and my own son, Logan are best friends. Wyatt has a hint of rambunctiousness in him, but he is as sweet as they come!
Happy 1st Birthday Wyatt!







Copper Family at Crystal Cove
The Coopers have been coming to Belle Amie Studios for years. This time around we spent our session at Crystal Cove Beach. I love these two little girls. Don’t they almost look like they are from another era or time? They have such a unique look to them, one I can’t really but my finger on. Both parents hail from Europe and I love to hear them speak to each other. I thought it was fitting (and very European) that the girls were itching to be in their birthday suits by the end of the session. Who am I to object?







The Wedge and some sand…it’s not what you’re thinking!
I love to be able to start in studio and them move on location. Studio time tends to be the warm up for the session and then the craziness ensues on location.
First on our agenda today was pictures of the Johnson family at Belle Amie Studios. Check. Next head over the the Wedge for some family fun. Check. Nice weather. Check. Get wet. Check. Laugh. Check check. We all had a great time.
Shelly and her husband are awaiting their second child and decided before things got to hectic to enjoy a day with me out at the beach with their 13 month old son, Cayden. Cayden was a huge fan of the sand, I think we even captured a few images of him eating the sand. That can’t be too good! I’m sure this would be the perfect thing to teach your new baby brother or sister.





Capri and Sienna Photos
These two beautiful girls have been coming to the studio since before they were born. Mommy found us when she was pregnant with big sister, and since then we have done lots of shoots for this Newport family. My favorite shot is mom, dad, and the girls all looking at each other. At first, Sienna didn’t want us to go near “her baby.” She is turning out to be a great big sister.











Newborn Baby Photos
You may recoginze this couple from our pregnancy samples on our website www.belleamiestudios.com. They have been coming to us since before big brother was born. Photographing the new baby was a joy. Congratulations to all of you!










Melissa’s Baby: Logan Sky at 9 months
This is studio owner, Melissa Olsen’s, baby boy. Logan is crawling everywhere, “talking” to everyone, and making pretty eyes at the ladies. Taking photos of him is so rewarding. He is always smiling for the camera and posing. He is a natural. The last shot is daddy taking him home in the new bike trailer.











La La La La Leina’s World
How sweet faced is this little princess? Leina and her family came into the studio on Saturday to have her nine month pictures taken. Her bright smile was picture perfect when her Daddy sang her the Elmo song. Leina’s big blue eyes and two teeth smile were simply adorable! Belle Amie looks forward to photographing you and your family in the future. 

FEVER ! Scarlet Fever!
Today Belle Amie Studios photographed five month old Scarlet. In the past we have photographed her with her sister Chloe, but today we had her all to ourselves. Little Miss Scarlet was so sweet. Her little sundresses conjured up thoughts of anticipated days of summer spent in the sun and sand. At five months, Scarlet is working hard to sit up on her own, she is an expert at grabbing her toes, and is teething right now. Every finger and toe in sight popped right into her mouth. It made for some adorable photos. Scarlet was a fantastic model and we look forward to future sessions with her whole family. 



Little London!
We spent the afternoon out in Irvine at the home of Micah, Peggy and baby London. London is a beautiful, sweet, calm and playful little girl. Her parents are so devoted to her and it was so great to see what great lengths they go to to make London happy. She is such a princess. Micah and Peggy were referred to us by another one of our clients and we are so honored to take part in these special moments with her daughter. We had a wonderful time and look forward to seeing London grow up.
