Family in the Field: Laguna Beach Portrait photography

I guess everyone is wondering where I’ve been right about now???  Let’s see, between 5th grade graduation, 11th birthday celebrations, 13 year old birthday celebrations, swim camp in Austin and family vacation, I have been in a whirlwind of activity.  I actually put my cameras down for more than a week :(!  I really missed all of them and I am glad to be back in the swing of things.  I have had so many great Blue Sky’s family sessions recently that I haven’t yet shared with all of you.  I want to start out with the beautiful Babiracki family!  They win the prize so far this season for the best outfits!  I love, love, love the simple black outfits on the couch, but then, they brought out the tans, creams and blues and my heart soared.   Not only were they great color choices, but the vintage feel is right up my alley.  Look for this family in future blog posts, cause I am excited to photograph them is some styled sessions we have planned for later this year.  Enjoy!

Styled Engagement Session: Laguna Beach Photographer

As time goes by I am more and more appreciative of the great people that surround me in my life. Success is hard independently, but when you have a brilliant team to rely on not only is it easier, it is also tons more fun. Laura Foster is a member of our amazing team. She is so talented, especially where hair is concerned. She and I have decided to team up on everything from weddings to modeling sessions. I highly recommend that you visit Laura before any photography session with Blue Sky’s Studio. For this photography session, not only did Laura do a great job on three different hair styles, but she also provided lost of the clothing inspirations and hair accessories and most importantly, she provided the sassy couple to model for us. I am thrilled with how all of the images turned out and I am so thankful that we spent the whole day on the session. My gal Cheryl at Radiance Artistry provide the retro makeup! Thanks to everyone for making this a great Blue Sky’s Studio styled session!

Sarah and Shawn: Laguna Beach Wedding Photography

The day started just a little gloomy and we feared perhaps the rain would come in….but by the afternoon, true to May Gray’s form, the sun was breaking through the clouds.  The great news for both Sarah and Shawn was that the overcast light was a perfect compliment to the bright colors they chose for their wedding at Laguna Village.    Not to mention that everyone looks beautiful in wedding photographs that are taken in soft, even light!  Sarah’s two boys helped her get ready and fussed about as if they were the parents for the day.  Sarah, surrounded by her friends and adoring parents, looked beautiful.  Shawn, although a little nervous, was beaming.   Emily and I really enjoyed the beautiful day… topped off by a crazy good dance from Sarah’s son and Mom!  Enjoy!

 

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.
