Cake Smash and Birthday Pics

What would turning one be if you didn’t get to dive into a birthday cake?!?

I ended up making her a reduced sugar pumkin applesauce cake, with reduced sugar cream cheese whipped frosting. She had no complaints and it turned out pretty yummy. Since it went over well, I’ll be posting the recipe to share soon. A couple shot without the frosting… 🙂

Yogi + Carmel by the Sea

I had the pleasure of shooting  a yoga photo session with my friend and beautiful soul Ms. Mel. She is an amazing yoga instructor and person. Her yogic journey brought her from New York here to California, and soon she will be traveling to India to teach at an ashram there.   She will be greatly missed, but I am excited for all the adventures that are ahead for her! “A photographer gets people to pose for them. A yoga instructor gets people to pose for themselves.” T. Guillemets
