Everyday I have this little conversation with myself, “Self, today you must blog”…. and then the phone rings, or someone needs a ride, or I book a last minute session and the day is completely gone.  Do you ever feel like the “todo” list never ends?  Well, I can’t promise a daily blog post with summer in full swing and the weather being perfectly gorgeous for family sessions, but I can promise to keep in touch with my Blue Sky’s family on a more regular basis.  Having said all that, many of you may know that we just launched our new wedding blog, www.blissbyblueskys.com/blog.  I would really, truely love and appreciate it if you would all go make a little visit and just say hello, or better yet give us some feedback on our engagement and wedding photography.

Now, finally, the Wood Family!  Wow, I think I am in love!  Seriously, they are not only beautiful on the outside, but that have this amazing chemistry and love that just makes you want to become an honorary member of the Wood Team!  Little did I know when they contacted me to book a session, that Sara is also an accomplished children’s photographer in the Bay Area.  She has definitely trained her kids well in front of the camera as they are naturals.  I did not want the session to end.  To Sara, thank you for trusting me with your fabulous family!  Enjoy!

Another fabulous editorial session starring Molly in Venice Beach and downtown Los Angeles!   This gal is up for Ms. California this year (she already holds the title of Ms. Southern California) and we feel like she will have no trouble winning the tiara!  Rashae, from Fansea Finds, was so genereous to share her fabulous props and clothing and Laura Foster provided the fabulous makeup and hair styling.  I definitely think Molly got the “dream team” treatment.  Enjoy!

Just a quick preview before I wrap it up for the day!  Our schedule has been such a whirlwind the last few weeks with fabulous families and lots of high school senior sessions, I haven’t had much of a chance to post.  Hopefully I will catch up soon and get to show you tons of lovely sessions!

I really loved this session, not just because the family is gorgeous, but also because they were so amazingly easy to work with.  Who would have throught that letting a boy throw an orange at you would be the key to a successful photography session.   A big, giant thank you to our stylist, Rashae from Fansea Finds, for the couch and to Sriti for the clothing suggestions.  Enjoy… and Christie we are super excited to see you tomorrow!

Over the summer we hosted a fabulous modeling session for over 100 children in Rascals to Rebels clothing store.  A toddler boy and girl and an older boy and girl were picked as the winners.  While all of the Miller’s children are gorgeous, the grand prize went to their middle child.  Part of the prize package was this super duper fun styled session in downtown Laguna Beach!  I loved their super sassy outfits and can’t wait to shoot their whole family!  Enjoy!

One lucky little girl in Laguna Hills got a big surprise from her Mom and Dad…. a beautiful new pony.  I had the honor of the first family photo session with the new addition!  Now, I am a dog person at heart and have not had much interaction with horses, but I have to say that I fell in love with this beauty.  All of the horses were camera hogs and really wanted to get into the action.   Seriously, they all have such unique personalities, I was amazed.

As for the family, I love how natural all of the portraits from the session came out.  The kids and the rest of the family were really enjoying the interaction with the entire stable.   Enjoy!
