Beautiful Life | Los Angeles Baby Photographer

August 21, 2010

I was able to photograph two newborns right before I left California~ one boy, one girl.  Aren’t they beautiful?

First is baby boy J., who at nine days old, had the most blonde hair I have ever seen on a newborn! I am also not sure how his mom could look so stunning just days post-partum- maybe she has some tips on her blog.

These girls are so fun, sweet, pretty…. and such troopers! It was absolutely freezing when we met for our session, but they were able to persevere and have fun time with their mommy!

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!
