Jenn & Mike’s Engagement Shoot

Okay……… these two were in Laguna Beach scouting a location for their destination wedding (they live in New Jersey).  I don’t think I have every laughed so much on a shoot.  They are definitely my kind of people.  I HAVE to share the craziness of our shoot.  We started in Laguna Canyon and then headed to Victoria Beach.  I was raving about how great this location is and the fantastic castle around the corner, when I got more than an eye full.  Let’s just say, someone confused this beach with a nude beach and he was PROUD of his birthday suit!  I couldn’t stop laughing as I jumped around the corner.  So…. we thought, okay will give him a moment and he will put his clothes back on……BUT, he was in the same state about 10 minutes later and we were forced to walk by without cracking up!  Jenn, Anna and I had to look at the ground cause we were so embarrassed.  He finally wrapped a towel around himself, but we got lots of great images of Mike and Jenn laughing as a result!   As you can see, these two make a great couple and I can’t wait for their wedding day!  Enjoy!

Sharon Family Beach Session

This was the shoot that almost didn’t happen!  Bob and I had a relaxing dinner with the Chris, Mary Pat and family and I thought I would be able to do a quick beach shoot immediately after.  However, the weather was NOT cooperating last week.  It is a good thing that this fantastic family was soooo flexible!   They were only in Laguna for a week and we managed to squeeze in a great photo shoot on the last night of their trip.  Better to wait for beautiful lighting than to have so so images.  Well I think waiting paid off!  Thanks for coming out to play on the beach with me.  I can’t wait to finish the wall collage for Pete and Gerry!

The McFadden Family

Wow, how these four kids have grown!  The oldest gal was one of our first Blue Sky’s clients and I definitely think she has mastered the high fashion pose!  Here three brothers are full of energy, but just great to work with.  We hauled all kinds of things into the canyon to match previous photographs of each child at 2 years old.  Well, we didn’t match 100% as the baby was NOT going to wear overalls…….no matter what!  Fortunately for me, he fell for the old candy in the pocket trick!  Thanks so much Jill for being a loyal Blue Sky’s client for so many years!  LOL!

New Smile!

My great friend Staci called me up to say that her daughter was getting her braces off and ready to capture her new smile!  I always want to try something different, so I suggested that we go to my new favorite urban spot!  She packed up the car with several “crazy cute” outfits and met me bright and early in the morning.    I think her daughter is stunning!  Enjoy!

Inspirational Shot!

Okay, so here is a suggestion for everyone out there…… if you see an image you love in a magazine, or other publication, cut it out and show it to me.  That is exactly what happened with my great friend, Sriti.  She had this image that she found and LOVED, probably because that girl LOVES shoes, and she showed it to me.  A week later, we set up an inspired shoot.   This was such a fun shoot for me because I got to be really creative.  I hope you enjoy, and Sriti….. I LOVE the shoes!
