Brogan 2 Year Old Pics + Carmel By the Sea

Just before departing the west coast I was honored to spend the day with this vivacious and adorable now TWO year old and his mama. We roamed the streets of Carmel By the Sea and took advantage of all the beautiful colors and textures of it’s historic buildings and houses. Brogan’s mischievous grins and electric blue eyes left me no shortage of opportunities to capture his beautiful boyish essence.

The Magic of the Season: MERRY CHRISTMAS!

This Christmas is my second as a parent, and I’m amazed at how having a child has given me a second chance to experience all the “child-like” magic and wonder of the season.

I have always loved the sites, smells, and sounds of Christmas, and this year I’m soaking up every second. Our decorations went up right after Thanksgiving, and I’m not looking forward to putting them away anytime soon.

Heather + Warren & The Boys: Palo Corona Regional Park

I love being a photographer; having the opportunity to capture images of little ones and of families makes each session something I look forward to. When you factor in a family I adore, such as this one, it makes a session all the more special. This beautiful family took part in a fun day as we ventured out to a new shoot location. Palo Corona Regional Park offers a beautiful, scenic, and rustic charm. I enjoyed the beautiful location and spending time with this amazing family, who I am honored to also call friends. I’ve had the great joy of watching thier baby Jasper grow…

My dear friend Heather gave birth to this precious little man (at home) several months ago. I was honored to take his first official pics. I look forward to shooting a session with him again soon, they grow way too fast!. His bright baby blues, long eyelashes, and adorable smile melt your heart. Luckily I get to see him at least once a week when his mama and I get together so I can get my Jasper fix! 🙂

Mike + Rebekah: Carmel Valley & Carmel By the Sea

When we moved here to Monterey I was blessed to find some amazing friends. Rebekah and Mike are among them. Rebekah is a true Southern Belle,and her charisma lights up a room. Mike is hystarical and keeps everyone laughing. Together they are a dynamic and fun couple. We did a two part shoot, first meeting at a few wineries in Carmel Valley, and then headed to the Beach in Carmel by The Sea…did I mention we had their adorable furry family memebers along for the session. Amelia and Andy were well behaved and especially enjoyed the Beach!
