Connie and Mike Engagement Session: Laguna Beach Wedding Photographer

You know when someone tell you that they are not photogenic and never take good pictures?  Well, for me, I look at that comment at a challenge.  My job at Blue Sky’s Studio is to make each client feel comfortable enough in front of the camera that they forget I am taking portraits.  Connie and Mike issued me that challenged and told me that they never get a good picture.  Ha!  I say!  Look at how beautiful they both are in all of these images!  They were so cute together and we just laughed and joked around the entire shoot.  I know their wedding portraits at are going to be stunning!  Stay tuned.

 

 

 

Grant Baby Girl: Laguna Beach Baby Photographer

First and foremost I want to welcome my new beautiful, talented and all around great gals, Emily and Rachel!  You haven’t heard from me for about a week, cause we have been busy, busy, busy training and getting then up to speed on everything Blue Sky’s!   Second, I want to share with you these adorable images of my friend and client, Lisa’s, new baby girl!  Although it was really tough to get a big toothy grin from her, I love all the different expressions we were able to catch.  Thanks to her big brother for coming to the rescue and entertaining her during the session.  He got lots of funny faces and event got her to stick out her tongue!  Enjoy!

Anthony & Jessica Engagement: Orange County Wedding Photographer

This was a really tough post for me, cause there were just so many beautiful shots from Anthony and Jessica’s engagement photography session!  All the elements were there for a fun and funky shoot including their cutie pie dog, Anthony’s new hairdoo and Jessica’s great wardrobe.  Oh, and of course, I love the tattoo of Jessica’s Dad’s name on her wrist!   For me, I had extra fun because I just got myself a new toy….. a Q-flash.  I am totally in love with the moody shots and flexibility this little light gives me!   Well, I am off to another beautiful wedding at Laguna Village.  Thanks to An All Inclusive Event for this great couple and so many others.  Enjoy!!

Smith Wedding- Laguna Beach Wedding Photography

April is typically unpredictable!  Sometimes it is cloudy, some times foggy, often times rainy…. but not for Chris an Colleen.  The most beautiful day of the year just happened to fall on their wedding day.  It was completely magical with the warm air and dolphins jumping right off shore.  The wedding ceremony was at beautiful Laguna Village and all the details from beginning to end were taken care of by the fabulous An All Inclusive Event.  My favorite part of the day was when Chris said his vows to Colleen’s daughter.  It was so touching and I definitely wiped tears from my eyes.   And although Chris lead me to believe that he was planning a surprise honeymoon in Vegas, he fooled everyone by taking Colleen to the Ritz Carleton in Hawaii.  This guy is a definite keeper!  We ended the day with a wedding portrait session at the Montage Beach!  I had such a blast getting to know this beautiful family!  Thank you for inviting me and my crew to be a part of your special day!

Taylor Family: Laguna Beach Family Photography

For just a few magical weeks in the Spring the California poppies are in full bloom!  Lucky for us the beautiful Taylor girls were just in time to play on the edge of the poppy fields in the Laguna Canyon.  Of course, we also dragged the cozy couch into the field so Mom and Dad could participate in the session.  The best part of having Orange Counties great outdoors as my studio is that it is ever changing and each shoot is unique.

Each year I look forward to seeing how all of the kiddos in our Blue Sky’s family change and grow.  These gals (kids and Mom included) just get more and more beautiful.  Dad, your not so bad either :)!  I love their sweet personalities and sunny smiles.  Thanks for playing in the flower field (despite the ever present BEES), chasing bubbles and cuddling on the couch!  Enjoy!
