Peeking....

This past weekend, we had a mini session for a MOPS Playgroup for a local church. While I was sorting through the pictures tonight, I happened upon this one and I just could not pass it up.

A Simply Beautiful Family....

Holiday Mini Sessions

**Note: Turn around on images will be kept as short as possible so you can show off your beautiful families in your Christmas Cards!**

Old Friends...New Baby!

I met Vanessa the day I returned to work from my honeymoon. Vanessa "met" me because she was asked to start a day or two early to help cover the sales floor because everyone was attending my wedding! Many years have passed and many miles as well but it was wonderful to get to see Vanessa, Aaron and their new baby Esther! We had a quick session at Lake Poway, squeezed in a shot or two of Vanessa's niece and nephew and I held Esther as much as I could. (I think the Canon was feeling a little neglected!) Enjoy the baby eyes so very blue that i didn't do a single thing to punch up their color!











Thank you friends...we love you guys!

Loving Hands

The Doozleberry Family needed updated photos and with the crazy schedules we both had for the few days they were in town, we had exactly 1 hour to take pictures. Thankfully the boys shined! And smiled, and giggled and fell in love with my camera assistant (my 4 year old Lucy.) We had fun running around Spanish village and Balboa Park together and, once again, it is hard to pick only a few. Enjoy this beautiful family. And if you didn't do it at the sneak peek, click here to follow their story.

But before you go, there are pictures to see! Check out the smile on this sweet baby face.....














This sweet family covers their wonderful boy in prayer....

Summers Past Farms Part Two

Yesterday we introduced you to Summers Past Farms and the beauty it holds there. With this family, we discovered an awesome blue door that I just couldn't get enough of!
I won't keep you any longer, meet the OTHER "K" Family!







Life imitated art when I caught the men of the family resting from their glamorous job of smiling for the camera.....they didn't want to get back out of the chairs after that one!

Summers Past Farms

Last year-um, almost a whole year ago-we had some clients who wanted their pictures taken out at Summers Past Farms in Flinn Springs. It is a lovely place to visit any time of year and you can find beautiful gardens, plants and crafts and even soap for sale. They also host great events including a fairy festival each June.

So we met 2 families out on different days and had so much fun exploring every corner of this property! If you are looking for a location with some great personality, Summers Past might be a good choice for your family photos!

Enjoy the beautiful colors and even more beautiful faces!

The "K" Family.....

Check back tomorrow for Part Two of Summers Past Farms!!

Sunshine

I am playing catch up this week so hang on!

This family flew all the way from Texas to have us take their pictures!
Okay, so they MIGHT have also been on vacation visiting their family as well but I think we were part of the attraction!

Love this family so so very much and watching their kids grow up has been such a pleasure in our lives!

They were one of our first clients years and years ago when we took this first picture....


So when we got back together, the kids decided we needed to redo it! And they are the ones who knew where everyone should be laying!


It isn't hard getting good shots of these beautiful children.....



This face holds 2 of my favorite dimples in the whole wide world.


I had a VERY hard time just picking one of this sweet girl--she was a natural!


And tell me these aren't the most amazing blue eyes ever?


All those good looks? Well, here's where they got them!
