Family Beach Shoot

I had the opportunity to spend the day with Vivian and her very sweet family this past weekend. Locations for photo shoots are always the fun part of planning them. Most the time I avoid heavily crowed areas but try to find a place that has special meaning to my clients. As a Southern Californian, what better place is there than the beach?! Sometimes I forget how lucky we are to have such beautiful backdrops right in our own backyard! The Malibu weather was beautiful and I had a great time capturing the kids explore the shoreline.

A Shabby Shower

Bridal showers are always a treat to photograph. From the decorations to the blushing bride to be, there are always so many memories to capture. It never fails to be a day full of happiness and anticipation for the big day! Congratulations Miss Teresita!

Tag, You're It

I had an awesome shoot this afternoon with some pretty cool chicks, Toni and Natalie. If anyone knows them, you know just how stylish these two are and if you know me,  you know I love color. Now, don't get me wrong, I wear a LOT of black.... I suppose it's the slimming factor. But as far as photography goes, I LOVE bold colors and contrast. There is something so appealing about colors that pop. My favorite part of today's session was the contrast of colors and shapes behind the girls. Natalie, who is known for her undeniable style, just happen to have coordinating shoes! She also happens to be quite an amazing hair stylist. The wardrobes and hair were all deisgned by Natalie.

Meet Ditto!

Meet Ditto and her very loving "food slave" Debbie.  I had the pleasure of having a session with this furry friend this past weekend. Ditto has such a personality. You would never know that she is 14 years old! She greeted me at the door with a smile and showed me all her favorite places to hang out and chill. After all, during the dog days of summer, you have to know the best spots to catch some z's!!
