Bauer Family | A Little Park in Irvine, CA

A long time coming.  The holiday sessions are still making their way to the blog.  This one is extra special to me because the cute little family is part of my big family.  Dad, Bryan, is my cousin and I'm so glad I got to spend some time with his little one and capture the special window of time before his baby sister arrives.

I don't even know exactly where this park is because I was a passenger in the car.  But, I think it might be one of my favorites because we had it all to ourselves and the tall trees with the streaming sunlight were so perfect for the morning shoot. 

I love you guys!  I can't wait for the little lady's arrival soon. xo

Chang Family | Santa Monica Beach, CA

Happy New Year Everyone!  I'm feeling so energized and hopeful for 2013.  I hope you are too.  It's going to be a great one!

I've got quite a bit of work to share.  I would've started posting the holiday sessions sooner.  But I wanted to be absolutely sure that everyone got their holiday cards out so I didn't ruin any surprises.  First up, here's the "Gap" inspired family session.  Jen did such a great job styling her family.  She thought they looked like a Gap ad.  But, I think she did an awesome job!  Especially with Ella's high top Converse sneakers.  She proves to me every time why she was voted "best dressed" in high school(yes, we go waaaayyyy back).  Jen, I'm so glad I get to take your annual family pictures!  I loved so many of them this year.
