 How lucky is this family to have FOUR awesome kids? They were so sweet and so much fun~ even the sleepy two year-old who wanted nothing to do with me or my camera! (He did like my puppet Dr. Evil Porkchop though)

I do realize that I just posted about 70 images. Sometimes you just have to shake it up a bit! :-)

  • Kristina P · Posted July 13, 2010 at 7:40 am · Link

    As a family of 6 myself I know how crazy it is to think a photographer will be able to even get one good shot, and then you think I don’t want just one, I want pictures that show my family who they are! So I give up, thinking it’s not possible and I still have yet to do a family shoot. These brought tears to my eyes because I see it’s possible with you! You captured this family wonderfully!!!! I love love love every one of these images and look forward to your blog post once again! :)

  • Kathleen · Posted July 13, 2010 at 5:42 pm · Link

Babies! | Los Angeles Baby Photography Image

Babies! | Los Angeles Baby Photography

June 7, 2010

I will confess here on my blog that when I photograph babies, I wish I could just kiss their cheeks! Aren’t babies the best?

First up, baby girl J., who aside from being beautiful, is an expert at grabbing and munching on her own feet:

Baby girl H. was 2 weeks old, and already has gorgeous eyes!

I think it’s been a while since a baby boy has been posted on my blog… well here is baby boy M.~ who is cute as a button and has the most “curly” little legs ever!
