Sometimes it's just nice to stand back and watch them be.......

Kirschner Family - Beach Session

Meet the Kirschner's.....Beautiful Family. They had a fantastic beach session. This is Ryan, and he had a birthday last week.....he is very, very cute. He has the sweetest shyness about him too. Ryan's mommy and daddy were so patient with him while he warmed up to the camera. They are a very loving family and it was an honor to photograph them. This is another family that you can tell is dedicated to their little man..and who wouldn't be with this cutie pie.

West's......

Remember Bobby West......Well his parent's spent the week in Balboa and chose this location for a few family pictures. The beach is a great photo location and their little man didn't argue one bit!!!! Remember the cards his mommy sent out as announcements...I CANNOT believe he is getting so big and he is so totally handsome. I was even able to talk them into the water just for a little splash!!!! They are a super couple with a wonderful little boy. I can't wait for them to see their family proofs.

Baby Hayden

This is a post for one of my VERY PATIENT sister-in-law's. This is her grandaughter, Hayden.
She is such a good baby...never made even a PEEP, and it was HOT, HOT, HOT!!! We did a little mini-session while we were visiting. I have some more to post, so keep watching :)

Big Brother....Jack

A little preview of Ava's big brother, Jack......A total sweetheart and so loves the camera. I cannot wait for their mom to see their proofs next week. They all turned out great!!!! What a GREAT friend, and what a wonderful family.

Kindergarten......

So the day came....Nicholas had no reservations....I held back my tears, but my hubby said he knew I cried......

Ava

Isn't she BEAUTIFUL!!!!!! This is Ava, she just turned 3. Her mommy and I have been friends for a long time now, and she gave me the honor of a photo session with her children. Her and her husband had their wedding reception, here, locally, at the Mission Inn. Naturally, this is her favorite photo spot. I can't even tell you how beautiful this location is. We did her entire session at the Inn. There are lots of beautiful garden areas, cafe's, and fountains. Her children were amazed with all the neat things to see. It was an absolute joy to share this afternoon session with the Weir children. This little one is FAST on her feet, and so very much full of LIFE and what a GREAT personality!!! Keep checking back for a preview of Ava's big brother Jack....talk about SWEET, KIND and 5....
