Teasers for the P family

This weekend, I had the pleasure of photographing the ladies of the P family. Originally, we were supposed to meet on Saturday, but as many of you know, the day fast turned into a gloomy, dark, c-o-l-d day at the beach and we weren't able to complete a session. But no worries...we just rescheduled for the next day at Balboa Park. Well...we definitely had some great weather, BUT it turned out that there was a huuuuuge Earth Day festival going on. Still, after 45 minutes I managed to find a parking spot and went in to see if we could still pull this off. With our luck, it just so happened that the festival was starting to close. All the big ugly tents came down and the masses of people began to leave, so we were good to go. When Teresa and Sophia walked up, little Sophia greeted me with her adorable dimples and big toothy smile and I knew we were going to get some great shots. Mommy and baby were so easy to photograph...and really just two sweet, beautiful ladies. I'm happy to share some of the photos from the session with you!

One hot weekend...

Let's face it...San Diego is probably the ideal spot in terms of weather. It is almost always nice and comfortable, and my eastcoast family frequently comments that they should move out here, because, where else can you wear shorts in winter? This past weekend was just another testament to the fantastic weather. It was actually quite warm...but not unbearable.



Saturday, the husband, the daughter, and I ended up spending a lazy afternoon down at Seaport Village. We walked around, gazed across the bay, listened to some local talent, ate a nice lunch, and enjoyed some great gelato (from Mondo Gelato...which, if you go, I suggest the Bacio and Peanut Butter...yum!). Here are some photos from the day...


























Sunday, my brother, his girlfriend, and her niece all came over and we spent time at the park playing with water guns. Beans didn't really get the concept, but she had a blast chasing after everyone and getting sprayed with the water. Apparently...that wasn't enough for the little ones, so we ended up in our pool for more H20 fun. Beans and Gigi had a great time...and (thankfully) were both pooped and ready to hit the hay by the time they were done eating dinner.













What happens when you bring a gun expert to a watergun fight... hahahaha







All in all...I'd say it was a great weekend. I got to practice with my new nifty fifty, spend time with my family, and eat gelato. Life doesn't get much better than this. :)

Teasers for the W family

This evening I had the pleasure of photographing two of the most adorable little kids I ever met. Jarren is six months old, while big sister Aliyah is going on 3. Poor Aliyah wasn't really in the mood to take pictures, so we weren't able to get many photos of her smiling. BUT - she's so pretty that it was hard to get a bad picture of her. Like I told her at the shoot, even if you pout, you're still pretty! Anyhow...the ones she did smile for turned out great. Jarren, on the other hand, came ready with smiles overflowing. The handsome guy seemed to be a natural - and also really wanted to get his hands on the camera. Perhaps he'll be a photographer someday? :)

Here are a few pics from our session together...



Aren't her eyes amazing?!


They really are just too cute together.
