Henry Family {Milano Photography}

Remember the Henry Family from awhile back?  Well we decided to reschedule the family part of their session, and I am soooo glad we did :)  The location they chose was AMAZING!!! A super great park in Mission Viejo.  I highly recommend taking a trip over there, it is just gorgeous.  Plan to spend an afternoon, 'cuz there is lots to see.....The Henry kids did a great job with their session and we were able to get some really great photos...

I know I've posted one of these before, but I thought it looked cute on these kiddos...


and a little BW...

Ruiz {Milano Photography}

I have been super busy this last week, preparing everyone's proofs, and I got a lttle behind on posting to my blog (shame, shame) So I thought I would update today and share some of my favorites from this awesome family session. I had the pleasure of photographing this little guy and his parents. What a happy little man!!!
Thank you to the Ruiz Family for the warm welcome into their home, and your proofs are on their way :)

.Holiday Break | Milano Photography.

We have been busy busy little elves with the Holiday orders, and it's been totally fun working with all my clients this season. I really have enjoyed photographing them. However, I decided to take a quick morning break and spend some shoot time with my family and my sister-n-law and nieces and nephew....LOLOLOL I must tell you it was quite an adventure....although it is always work with Nicholas and Mia, I have to say it was pretty darn fun!!! Here's just a couple I thought I would share with everyone....Okay now, back to work :)

.Emery.

This is the Emery family and I had the pleasure of photographing them. They recently put their heart and soul into their backyard, to create a family-oriented environment for their boys to enjoy, and to spend time together. I must say there was not a better location choice for their family session!!!! Their backyard is GORGEOUS...It suited their personalities perfectly and made an awesome family afternoon!!! These are just a couple teezers for them. Their entire session came out awesome and I can't wait for them to see their entire session album!!!!

"I Wanna Be Like You"

"Dream On"Whew, I know I have been neglecting my blog but it has been for good reason :)
My little one had her first dance recital last weekend. Myself and another parent volunteered for the room mom job. I have to just say I feel so fortunate to have been able to experience the day with my daughter. The girl's were AWESOME!!! Very very patient and well-behaved!!! Her class's dance was based off "The Jungle Book"and the entire class of 4-year old's did a fantastic job of performing for such a big audience. I am very impressed with the studio's classes, techniques, and their organization of the production. Congratulations to Dellos Dance for all their hard work and progress. I also wanted to mention my son had his Corona Pony All-Star Game that morning as well, and he played a GREAT first baseman. But, if any of you know me at all, by now, then you know getting pictures of my 6-year old is like ....FORGET IT!!!! So I just have to comment on how proud of him I am.

C-A-T-C-H-E-R!!!!!!

My Son....Finally!!!!

And of course I couldn't resist a quick post of Nicholas playing catcher.
This is the only way I get photos of him anyway :)
I was so excited at this weekends Corona Pony Game. My son FINALLY agreed to play Catcher.
I was so proud of him. He tagged THREE little guys coming into home...Whoooo Hooooo. I even caught him smiling. (I think he actually likes it!) We are so proud of him. He LOVES this game....Honestly, he's just a super sweet, very good natured boy....but I am a little bias :)

The Future of Milano Photography

My new protege'......

"A Photograph Can Speak For Itself"

and this one speaks for itself.....

The Milano Children

"Holiday Journey"

Mia and Daddy....

This turned out totally cute. We attempted a "family picture" over the past weekend. HA HAHA is all I can say. I have discovered that being a photographer doesn't always mean getting pictures of my own kids :) And boy am I lucky I don't have my own kids for clients.....:) Nicholas is TOTALLY CAMERA SHY....he likes the idea of having a mommy for a photographer, but any little sessions with him....FORGET IT. He gets so upset, poor little guy. But, Mia, she loves our little mini-sessions, and she LOVES her DADDY even more......I did get some sneaky one's of my little man, so perhaps I can get up at least one:)

This is the ladies room at my daughter's dance studio, Dellos.... I caught my daughter checking out her cuteness :)

Look What Our Little Tinkerbell Found....

Our Little Tink found herself a Peter Pan for the Preschool Halloween Parade......

Our Student of the Month!!!!!!

We are so incredibly proud of our son. He was student of the month in his Kindergarten class at Lake Hills Elementary. We are loving the curriculum at this school and the teachers are AWESOME. Our son works very hard at being a good 5 year old, and it is paying off. Even though we know "boys can be boys" :) There are days, when my children just simply bring tears to my eyes. They don't even have to do anything special!! I just love them. That is probably the biggest reason I became a photographer. I spent OODLES of time trying to stop the clock and capture their every fleeting moment, but to no avail, here we are at 3 and 5. Now, I share that gift with my clients so that they can see what I see behind the lens :)

Midway Tour & F18 Hornet Practice

As most of you know, we spent a week down in San Diego. My hubby and my son LOVE the air crafts and anything related. I am posting these for him, so he can share.These are a couple of pictures I took down there. We took a tour of the Air Craft Carrier, the Midway. Nicholas diligently listened to the audio tour with his headphones, they are so big on his little ears!!!! While we were at Coronado Island, we got a surprise air show of some F18 Hornets. (Luckily I was camera-ready!!!)
