The first warm, sunshiny day of the year, we headed down to old town Orange with this troop of super cute girls. Oh, and we brought Dad along too! Mom was ready with a suitcase full of new clothes and the girls agreed to model for lollipops…… so we headed off around town. We discovered a few new funky spots as well as revisited some of my favorites. All in all, we had a great time and at the end of the session, I waved goodbye as they headed out on a car trip! Enjoy!
Tree Climbing, giggling, jumping, skipping, twirling, oh my……. this was such an active afternoon. It is kind of funny, cause it started out with two beautiful kids who looked shyly at me without much expression, and ended with lots and lots of crazy silliness! As it turns out, these two fabulous kids have grandparents that live directly behind me, so they were from my ‘hood. I loved all of the candid shots we got from just playing throughout the park. This park is not one I photograph in very often, but I am definitely going to start working there more frequently. I loved getting to know the whole family! Enjoy the beautiful portraits!
There are all kinds of ways to get a cutie like this engaged in a photography session. One of my favorites is “where is the turtle” (or ladybug, or frog, or lizard)? We started by actually finding a lizard. The only problem with the lizard, was he was getting all of the attention and love, and me and my trusty camera were forgotten. Soooo, we moved on to, “Where’s the turtle?” I love kids and their imaginations. We never actually found a turtle, but we still had a great time playing the game. The best part, is that this little doll is my friend Kim’s daughter, so she played right along with us! I bet she is still searching for the turtle! Enjoy!
We really worked hard to get the pouty look! Maybe this is just a little too sad?
Awwww, she managed to get the perfect cross between soft lips and smiling eyes! Good job!
One of my favorites!
Almost done!
“I love this time of year because we get to do our fun Creative Sessions, which allows us to have a different kind of shoot with a theme. The lighting, family and location for this creative session was so awesome, I love how the shots came out! This beautiful family showed up on location with some great outfits! They brought tons of awesome clothing, perfect for this whimsical setting. I had such a great time on this shoot running after their little one and taking modeling shots of their beautiful boy. The kids were truly a joy to be around and of course, as you can see, are just gorgeous! Thank you so much for coming out and enjoying the morning with me!” -Anna
One of my best gals brought this little cutie out to play last month in San Juan. He was a perfect angel, and at less than two years old, he had already perfected the “Blue Steel”! I just can’t get over his beautiful eyes. I know Mama is never going to be able to say no to this little guy. AND at the tender age of less than 2, he already has a modeling contract. Enjoy!
Could you just die at his yummy lips???
Beautiful Smile!
