The Fox Family

I was so fortunate to photograph this awesome family right before it started getting super hot in Phoenix back in May. This family is so photogenic and the kids were so much fun! We were able to get some fantastic images: kids by themselves, with their parents and of them being together. I had such a great time with all of them – thank you Fox Family for a wonderful session!

Marcy’s Baby Shower

I had the pleasure of photographing this fabulous baby shower a few weeks ago for Marcy and her soon to be baby Laila. Marcy just happened to stop in our new studio in the CopperWillow Paper Studio on Washington Blvd here in Culver City – she randomly took my card needing a photographer and voila! I’m so glad to have met Marcy and her friends – I feel like I just fit right in with them! And, don’t even get me started on the best tamales I’ve eaten in a long time – Marcy’s mom made them and, as a self-proclaimed tamale expert, they were out of this world. YUM! The shower had all of Marcy’s wonderful friends from high-school, college and beyond. Plus, her adoring aunts, mom, mother-in-law and cousins are all looking forward to early July when baby Laila is coming out. I can’t even wait to meet her! Thank you Marcy, for such a fab shower!

Carly and Matt are one of the cutest couples I have photographed in a long time. Their wedding was in the fall of 2008, at the Arizona Grand Resort – it was absolutely beautiful and so much fun. I wanted to show off their fabulous album by Couture Book. It’s from one of their modern lines, the New York, and it’s sleek with an outside hard case. Gorgeous! Congrats Carly and Matt!

The Moss Families

I was thrilled to do some traditional portraits for my favorite friends and clients, the Moss Family. I’ve been lucky enough to photograph Aaron and Rosa and their two beautiful daughters for the last few years so this was a very nice surprise to be able to photograph for Aaron’s parents, Sheila and Jerry. This is an early birthday present for Sheila – her two boys and their families. Thank you Moss Family for having me out to photograph for you – I had such a nice time!

Amy and Brian are an awesome couple out of Phoenix and I had the privilege of photographing their fabulous wedding in Arizona at the Sunridge Canyon Country Club in Fountain Hills. Such a gorgeous day! Their album just came in this week and I wanted to show off how beautiful their images are. Enjoy your album and thank you again for such a wonderful wedding to photograph!

Let the Parties Begin!

Happy New Year Everyone! Since it’s January 1st, I thought I would start the New Year off right and post some of our party packages for 2010. We love, love, love all parties – both kids and adults (especially if there are margaritas…..)

The Fratantuno Family

This fabulous family is so much fun – I met them at my daughter’s preschool, Happyland, almost two years ago and I just love hanging around them (in a non-stalkerish way, of course). Last weekend, we headed out to a local park here in LA and, as you can see, really just laughed and smiled the whole time. The weather was perfect photographer’s weather: all clouds without a trace of sun – ahhhh – just love it. Thank you Jodie and Mike for such a fun session – I hope you love your images as much as I do!

The Hoshide Family

The Hoshide family and I set out to go to one of our beautiful So Cal beaches, with amazing weather and the water was perfect. Luckily, there were plenty of outfit changes for the boys since both were pretty wet about half way through the session. We ran around for over two hours – I think the three of us were more tired then the boys were but we all had such a wonderful time! Here are a few of my favorite images and thank you for such a fantastic session!

The Viola/Morales Family

This fabulous family came to me last year through Peachhead and I’m so thrilled to be able to photograph them again this year as well! The newest edition to the family is baby M. – one of the cutest smiles I’ve seen in quite some time. And sweet pea L. is growing up so fast – it’s really fun to watch her grow. We went to a local park and were able to create some amazing images of the family – thank you all for such a great session!

The Hersh Family

Another fantastic Arizona family with the cutest little girl ever. We walked around Phoenix’s Desert Botanical Garden where their daughter, S. ran around and had so much fun. Three is a tough age all around (yes, my 5 year old was once 3) but we managed to get some great shots of her as well as with her mom and dad. Thank you so much Jen and Jason – I had such a great time with you!
