Beautiful Mama & Her New Baby G

November 9, 2010

Meet baby boy– G. Most of the families I photograph are just so appreciative that I’m there capturing a moment in time for them, but this family is way beyond that. The entire family, including and especially Grandma C, are such gracious and generous people. To the point of showing up with chocolates from Ireland, and coffee from the near by coffee house, offering me breakfast, and more. I had the feeling I got when I visit my very generous and hospitable family in Europe. Grandma flew in from out of the country for her grandson’s birth, and is staying to help out, and I am so glad to hear that the family love their images. Here are a few from the pregnancy and newborn sessions.

Sweet Little Boy | Los Angeles Newborn Photographer

September 24, 2010

I’ve been neglecting my blog lately, and I’ve been meaning to show you some images from this session.

Meet Baby A. This little boy is so lucky to have such wonderful parents, sister and dog to grow up with. Like so many of the families I photograph, they welcome me into their home like family. Grandma was there as well, and she was so much fun to talk to when I was breaking down, after the parents had to leave for a doctor’s appointment. Ahhh, photographing newborns never gets old!

Little Baby R. | Los Angeles Newborn Photography

August 10, 2010

Meet Baby R. He’s a handsome little guy with a couple of cool parents. They were SO much fun when they were viewing and choosing their images. I think mom and dad were pleasantly surprised that we got so many wonderful images, as Baby R. wasn’t quite in the mood for pictures on the day I was there photographing. What’s great is that one of the shots that we all fell in love with was an unplanned shot with this adorable squishy pouty face (the black and white one below). We were originally trying for the peaceful sleeping shot in the same position, but each time we tried, he would have nothing of the sort, and immediately got pouty. I love when I get an even more amazing image than the one I planned on. Such a cute baby!!!!

It was such a pretty day when we photographed this little newborn, so we were able to do some shots inside and some outside. The family was so appreciative and accommodating in their home–truly a sweet family. I was so excited to show them the images that we got. Also, her sister was such a good sport through the entire session. We even got some shots of her alone, enjoying a flower.

Second Time Around | Los Angeles Baby & Pregnancy Photographer

June 30, 2010

It wasn’t that long ago that I did J’s maternity images when her little boy was in her tummy. And she’s now just weeks away from having another newborn baby. This time we did outdoor shots, and the colors were just lovely. As usual, they were just great to work with.

Glorious Family | Los Angeles Family Photographer

June 15, 2010

This family was SUCH a pleasure to photograph! The parents recently had their 40th anniversary, and their son wanted to give them a gift of family photographs including him and his new wife. What a great idea. Aren’t they a beautiful family? And the colors go so well with their beauty and happiness. Glorious, I say. At the end, as I was taking some pictures of J and his wife, we looked over at his parents with my reflector and scrim with the sun shining through, and I just couldn’t resist getting some spontaneous silhouette photos of them with them. What fun! Here’s to 40th anniversaries, and to many more.

I was just thinking about this shot today, as it’s one I’ve been meaning to show. It’s one I took at Janie & Jack a few months ago, but I remember just loving the tender look dad was giving his baby. And this newborn looks so comfy in dad’s arms.

Beach Baby | Los Angeles Beach Photographer

May 18, 2010

We had so much fun getting some wonderful Souther California style beach photographs. Swinging is what this little one loves. Can you tell! This family was just so comfortable doing their own thing, enjoying the beach like I wasn’t there. What a beautiful family!

A Star is Born | Los Angeles Newborn Photographer

May 14, 2010

This newborn little boy is so lucky. His parents are just so enamored with him, as are his grandparents. I had such a lovely time photographing baby J. He’s just beautiful and such a sweetheart! Mom and dad just moved into their new house, after spending some time decorating it, so I just couldn’t help photographing the family in their gorgeous breakfast nook. Can you imagine the good times and lovely breakfasts that are going to take place in there? And I’m really excited that some of these are going to hang big in their home. What’s better than personal wall art?

ETA: I completely forgot to mention his cute little mohawk. Doesn’t he have the cutest hair?
