And baby makes….five!
Jimmy and Tara came in today for maternity photos. The two are excited to add another addition to their family. Both Tara and Jimmy both have daughters who are the same age. The great part about that is they are each others best friends and can’t wait to be start being big sisters to their new brother or sister. We started the session in Studio and Tara looks amazing. Maternity photos are some of my favorite sessions because the soon-to-be parents are overcome with anticipation, joy, and happiness, and all of that and more inevitably shows up in the photos. We ended our session down at the beach. Tara was getting into being a model so much and was enjoying frolicking in the waves that she wasn’t paying attention when a big wave snuck up behind her and soaked her from head to toe. The pictures are priceless and we all had a good laugh about it all.
Enjoy the last month of your pregnancy Tara and Jimmy, and we look forward to meeting your new baby in the future!







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.





Laguna Beach Summer Photo Sessions
This beach shoot was filled with such beautiful water and sunlight. I love the golden days of summer, taking pictures in Laguna Beach, California. How lucky we are to live in such a beautiful world, and how great that I get to take photos of beautiful people. It’s really the very best job in the world.
