9 Days Old | Baby S & Big Sister S

This morning I shot a young lady just turning 15, then this afternoon a little lady just born...Only 9 days old.  The sweetness, the innocence of this little one.  She is soo loved by her mommy, daddy and sister.  Sister S was just as talkative as can be and her face just lit up when she was able to carry her sister and kiss her...It was the sweetest.  This sneak peek image will just melt their hearts every time they see it because  it does to mine...

 

Destiny | Quince Anos | Sneak Peek

The last time I saw this girl she was just 7 years old...Oh wow, she has grown up and has become this beautiful young lady.  She was ready to rock her dress today and to have a good time with her family and friends.  She rocked the dress on this beautiful car that her mom, Bonnie, chased down the street (LITERALLY, seriously though, it was  no joke!!  Hilarious!)...Oh Bon Bon, oh how I've missed you and your craziness.  Destiny, I hope that you had a great time at your big party!!!

These 2 are always a joy...

Always a joy these two!!!

Moreno Family | Seal Beach

After a few hit and miss of trying to arrange our time together, FINALLY, we settled on the day to meet...Meet the Moreno Family...We went to Seal Beach this weekend and boy was it crowded.  We did manage to find a few spots to shoot and the funny thing, it wasn't on the beach.  We had a couple of meltdowns from Mr. Isaac but he did very well with the help of his loving sister and of course mom & dad.

The Doizaki Family

I had a wonderful time photographing the Doizaki family.  They are the sweetest bunch.  They were on a short San Diego vacation and contacted me for their Holiday Session.  They have never visited Old Town San Diego, so it was perfect...The weather was perfect and we had such a sweet time together.  They all would say "Bonsai" to beautiful Audrey to get her attention and smile...By the end of the session, they had me shouting, "Bonsai" too! 

Sue Ann | Jeoff + ONE!!!

The last time I photographed my cousin, they were in town and were unfortunately, coming down with some SD bug...Today, although it was a rough and long day for me...Sitting in a waiting room drinking lots and lots of coffee (should explain that)...Sue Ann and Jeoff were spunky and ready to go...These two had me cracking up laughing, which was not good in my case, but with all that laughter and silliness I was able to catch these two being normal...Well, their normal!  LOL...I love you guys and the Mercado family wishes you two the best on the upcoming adventure...

AND I TOLD THEM TO DANCE AND ACT NORMAL...AND THIS IS WHAT THEY SAID IS NORMAL!!!  LOVE THESE GUYS!!!

Weekend Cuteness Overload | The Bear

This weekend was just cuteness overload with all my nephews but the only one who would actually let the camera snap was Mr. Bear!  The moment he walked into the house we wanted to get a session in, DJ session that is.  Uncle Joe was showing him the basics but Mr. Bear was all over it!  Watch out Masonic Temple, here is the next prodigy behind the tables...Watch out now!!!

Isaiah | 1 year old Bash

It really was a treat to photograph such a fun 1st birthday for birthday boy Isaiah.  This little guy is surrounded by many family and friends who just love him to pieces.  He was carried by many of his guests and was just smothered with kisses and hugs.  The last time I saw this little guy he was around 3 or 4 months, you may remember the little guy...(http://www.blogger.com/post-edit.g?blogID=5244950099777859079&postID=4832816658466118287)  Now he's this oh so cute chunkster that you just want to squeeze, squeeze and squeeze some more!  I had a great time capturing great shots of the kids enjoying the bubble lady, eating some awesome tacos and eating that fabulous barn themed cake (looks and tastes good, check her out...)  http://www.facebook.com/#!/mygemcakes...

Christmas starting in August, What?

Yupp!  Already...Can you believe this, how fast is this year going by?  It just starts to fly by right after the kids go back to school, then it's Halloween, then Thanksgiving....Before you know it, it's that time again. 

Let's plan early...
