There is just something so magical about Christmas Tree Farms during the Christmas season. All the pretty lights hung above the trees, hot cider, rows of Christmas Trees and the chilly weather it’s a perfect Christmas tradition. Ahhhh, I love it all! Nancy’s Ranch here in Valencia has a “cut your own” section so we […]

Ayla: Christmastime
This girl! We bribed her with boys to get her to smile for us, I think she might be trouble in later years. Ha! I love going to Nancy’s Ranch for Christmas pictures this time of year and Ayla was cute as could be in her fancy dress and many cute expressions. You can see […]
Family Portraits for the Holidays

I am looking forward to spending time with our family this year, photographing a brand new baby cousin, […]
Asher’s First Birthday!
Such a sweet little boy and seriously cute family! Asher had his first birthday with friends and family at his Great Grandma’s house in Pasadena. Brittany had so many cute little decorations and sweets to celebrate. Asher had his very own cake and dug right in when they put it in front of him.
Vintage Camping Anniversary: Mike & Carrie
A couple months ago I visited my home town of Coquille, Oregon and really wanted to do a creative session of some sort. One of my high school friends ended up being free on the day I wanted to do a shoot so we packed up and put together a little vintage camping session at Laverne […]
Alivia Love: Newborn Baby Girl

Oxnard Beach Family Pictures: Mordh Family
Generally when you think of California beaches in the summertime you think warm with a slight cool breeze, sunny and not windy. At least that’s what I think of but I’ve learned that’s not always the case at Oxnard beach. 🙂 We had slightly more than a cool breeze. While the Mordh’s may have been […]
Senior Pictures in Santa Monica: Nicole
For Nicole’s senior pictures we thought we’d escape the Santa Monica crowd at the Pier by having her session in the middle of the week but there ended up being a live concert and it was packed! Didn’t detur us of course and was actually pretty cool to have live music playing in the background […]

The McKinley/Corum Family
This lovely family session in downtown Lancaster on the Boulevard may have been early in the morning but you would never be able to tell with their smiling faces. There were one or two giggle fits but that only made it more fun to take pictures of. 🙂 A truly beautiful family inside and out. […]
