I love photographing people in their own personal space.  Families just seem more comfortable when they are under their own roof.  This family just recently moved to Laguna Beach and I am fortunate to call them friends.  Last year at the School Power Gala, they purchased a gift certificate for Blue Sky’s Studio.  Initially we were planning to head straight down to the beach, but upon chatting with the family, we decided to start the session in their beautiful new home.  Four kids is usually quite a challenge to photograph, but these guys were fabulous to work with (even if I had trouble getting the 12 year old to smile.  I love his GQ/ attitude look anyway).  Their oldest brother isn’t really a kid!  He was an awesome help and you can tell his younger siblings just adore him.  Thank you for trusting me with your first photo session as full time residence of Laguna Beach!  Enjoy!

Every once in a while I photograph a child that was born to model.   This beauty definitely has Ford Modeling potential.  We started just a little slow so she could warm up to me, but by the end of the shoot, she was all smiles and new poses!  In fact, she didn’t want to leave the beach!  I think she is gorgeous and was a pleasure to work with!  Here are some of my favorite images from her shoot!

You would never believe it by looking at these beautiful images, but it was raining on us during this photo shoot.  Everyone was unbelievably good sports, to brave the weather and lots and lots of bugs.  I have to admit that the beautiful colors in these images would not be possible without a little bit of rain.

Many of you have received our newsletter about my involvement in InCourage Foundation.  Jeneen is on the Board of Directors with me and is just an awesome person.   AND, what about her boys????  Are they gorgeous or what.  Not only are they extremely handsome, but they are totally into hats (which most of you know is my obsession).   I love how sweet and innocent the boys are in these portraits.  You can definitely feel the love between all of the family members!  Enjoy!!

I always love it when I get the chance to photograph a family that I know personally.  This fabulous family is local to Laguna Beach!  Unfortunately, we did not have much beach to work with, because the tide was coming it, but we still managed to get some beautiful family images.  Four kids can be kind of challenging, but these four were fantastic (although the baby was definitely a moving target)!  Thank you so much for trusting me to capture your family for this holiday season!  I had an awesome time with all of you!

This shoot has been a long time coming.  Dr. Cohen works with my Dad and my Dad keeps telling me, Mitch really wants to do a family photography session with you.  Time would go by, and I wouldn’t hear anything and then  again my Dad would say, “no really, Mitch wants to do a photo session with you”!   Then, out of the blue a few weeks ago he e-mailed me and said he was ready.  Now, being a mother of two and working full time, I totally get it that it is hard to find time to get everyone together for a shoot.  I am so glad we finally did!  Mitch has a gorgeous family and you can really tell how much the kids love both their Mom and Dad.  And did I mention the kids eyes?  They are fantastically beautiful (is fantastically a word?)!  The Mission made the perfect backdrop for the fun family!  Enjoy!
