Twins in San Juan Capistrano: San Juan Capistrano Portrait Photography

There are many things in this life that I count as blessings…. my beautiful children, my loving husband, my wonderful friends, having a business that I truely love, AND Coach Andi!!!!  You probably know that my kids have dreams of being Olympic Swimmers.  They practice 5-6 days a week, 2-3 hours per day, rain or shine.  This has made them amazing athletes, but the lessons they learn at Nova Swim Team extend far beyond the swimming pool.  Like, the importance of setting goals and measuring their success, and how to make friends with other kids from different cultures with different family structures, and how hard work pays off!  Coach Andi has been a fantastic influence on both my kids.  So, it was my honor to photograph her beautiful twins.  With much love and lots of giggles I want to sincerely thank you Andi!  Enjoy!

Foss Senior Session: Laguna Beach Senior Photographer

The last time I saw this beautiful gal, she was still in middle school.  I can hardly believe that she is already in her Senior year of high school.  She is still just as lovely as I remember and we had a blast running around the Montage in Laguna Beach.  Although the weather was bad, bad, bad…..she still looks stunning.  You can see from the last image, that the thick fog rolled in during our session.  A little grey weather didn’t put a damper on her beautiful smile.  Thanks so much for trusting me with the hat and all!  Enjoy!

Fusillo Family Shoot 2011 – Venice Beach and Laguna Beach

Happy Friday everyone!  I just had to share my family shoot for 2011 that Kristin did.  As always, the girl did a stellar job.  We had so much fun in Venice and Laguna Beach with her.  Even though my little man was not in a picture-taking mood {the kid is 2 and has his own ideas on what we should be doing on a Saturday morning…..so stubborn…..I have no idea where he gets that from….. ;) }, Kristin was still able to get some great shots of him as well as everyone else.  It helps that she has killer skills and speed with that camera of hers.  Thank you Kristin for the great pics!  Now I can get cracking on our Holiday Cards!

Mays Family at the Mission: Laguna Beach Portrait Photography

It has been about a month since I last photographed in The Mission in San Juan Capistrano, so I was surprised at how many families were visiting.  The day was gorgeous, and there was even a Mariachi band playing in the background.  The perfect atmosphere for a family photography session.  The Mays are new to Blue Sky’s Studio, referred by one of my friends and clients who I work with on a charity for CHOC hospital.  They are truly a lovely family and I really enjoyed getting to know all three generations.  Didn’t they do an amazing job on their clothing style.  How did they know that I love burnt orange??  A perfect color combination to get everyone in the mood for Fall.  Between their beautiful daughter and their handsome son, no to mention the rest of the family, I think they are blessed with some pretty great genes!  Thank you so much for trusting me with your family portraits!  Enjoy.
