Arianne’s Dance Recital

Last Friday night I went to my niece Arianne’s dance recital.  It was so great seeing her all dressed up since she is such a tomboy and you usually catch her in Dickies. 

Arianne…You did such a good job.  Love you sweetie!

Carolina, Nico & Annabelle

You might recongnize these guys from the party I photographed not too long ago.  They went to an open casting call at the Lake Elsinore outlets and now they need some headshots.  I was so excited to do it!

Sweet Baby Bella

I visited Luis, Angela and sweet 2 week old Isabella at their home in Victorville this week.  When I arrived Bella was sleeping on dad’s lap so I got right to work!  Of course once we got started she was pretty much awake the whole time, which was fine too cause I got lots of shots of her looking at the camera.

Luis & Angela…Thank you for inviting me into your home.  It was so great meeting you guys.  I can’t wait to see this little girl grow up!

 Angela is so sweet with her baby girl and the way Luis looks at her is enough to make your heart melt.  This little girl is so loved…

Sweet Baby Aubrey

Meet Aubrey Victoria Harwood.  Her proud parents are Doug & Cynthia.  She came into the world 3 weeks early at 6 lbs 4 oz and she is so tiny and precious.  I was able to meet her and do her newborn session at 7 days old.  I usually don’t bug people too much about scheduling, since they are friends I wanted them to have their session done asap.  I recommend the first session as early as possible, under 10 days old.

These photos of Aubrey on mom and dad’s bed are my favorites of the day.  For being a newborn she sure didn’t sleep a lot.  Cynthia was wondering what was going on…

Meet Mark & Bobby, 4 month old twins.  Bobby is to the left and Mark in on the right.  They are Cynthia’s nephews so she came along with her sister, mom and the twins to my house for a session.  It takes an army when you have 2 the same age!  Their mommy is Sonia and they have 3 other kids at home.

Sweet Baby Megan

Megan is 2 months old and she is the newest addition to a household of 4 and that’s just counting the kids!  Miguel & Christine have been together for 14 years, have 5 kids and they are not done yet.  They have 4 girls and 1 boy so they want to try for another boy next year.  Christine amazes me especially since she is a couple of years younger than me!  She is one of those people who just knew they always wanted to be a mommy, “I just didn’t know I would have this many” she said.

We had a day of shooting on Monday.  She really wanted to capture the mommy/baby bond as a Father’s Day surprise.  So first I headed over to their house with 3 little ones at home and then she came by with 4 in tow for us to do some with the backdrop while they played with Bobby and Jace.  It worked out so perfect since they are so close by.

Christine…You really inspire me!  You guys have such a happy full life with such wonderful kids.  Your life truly suits you.  I am so glad I was able to give you the images you were looking for.  I hope you guys have a wonderful Father’s Day!  Can’t wait to come back and photograph all of you :)

Baby Arath

Carlos & Mariel have an addition of a baby boy to their family.  Arath Samuel Avalos is 2 weeks old.  It was such a pleasure meeting this family and spending some time with them.  I can’t wait to see him when he gets a bit older, look at all that hair!  Thank you so much to Alannah’s family for sending them my way!

This is the only image that I got with his eyes open.  He slept the whole time.  Mom was so happy she kept saying “he’s never like this” - I guess he liked his photo session!
