Fun in the Studio

Ok, that studio is a fun little place to play! Look at how much fun Logan had today! He was so into this practice shoot and he just loves his Gap hat... made for a wonderful afternoon in the natural light set up. You can see Lauryn here too, dealing with the annoyances of her mom and this camera. Poor kid!

Absolute Model Looks

If anyone in the world could be a model, this little girl could be! And so could her brother... and so could her sister. Pretty sure if I was a talent scout, I'd be inviting them all to work immediately! But what's more, they're amazing little kids and so funny and charming and special. This was our first "studio" shoot in Caryn's new home studio using natural light and 10 million distractions. What a morning!

I love overcast days (and great hats!)

Here is one of my favorite shoots of the holiday season. Mostly because of these little guys' cool hats, some because of the awesome overcast skies, and a lot because they were SO so cute!

The bigger guy had a big fall just before the shoot so you can see his red goose egg under his hat (OUCH!) but look at how much fun he seemed to be having getting his pictures taken! Thanks guys for making this a fun day!

Beautiful Family

Are these not the most pretty kids ever? I didn't mean to shoot in their parents' bedroom that day but I walked into this most amazing light combined with that gorgeous bedding and I just could not resist! We did eventually get out and shoot some outdoors with the fall colors but these were my favorites of the day. Something about the rich tones and shadows that natural light was casting on these guys. No one cared really if they were smiling or looking dead serious... They just kept looking this cute!

Congratulations, Angela!

So I just found out a fellow photographer's (http://www.jessicasvisions.com/ and http://jvphoto.blogspot.com/) sister is getting married at the gorgeous Vizcaya in downtown Sacramento! Well, lucky us, we got a few pictures of this cute couple when they were "just dating." Congratulations, Angela! Double congratulations ;) !

Here are a few shots of the happy couple and her little Devon.

Welcome Raymond, One Month Old

Raymond is here! We loved getting his mom's maternity portraits and this I have to say may have been even more fun. He is absolutely gorgeous; I guess it helps having super good looking parents! Nothing like having a leg up in life, right? Here are a few of his newborn shots. He's one month today ~ happy birthday Ray!
