My friend Emily was pregnant with baby Elias, and we’d be looking forward to doing a maternity shoot.

My friend Kim raises chickens. Her kids like to “help” her carry them to the house.

I was walking at Back Bay and felt like there was a picture to be taken…

I was giving Penelope a bath when Grace came dancing up in her horsey nightgown, Kim’s shoes and a bunch of bangles.

Miles and Emily invited me to take photos their newborn son, Elias, and I was thrilled to meet him and capture a few moments of family time.

Who knew an engagement shoot could be so much fun? We started at Back Bay in Newport Beach, and ended up in Corona del Mar!

I love Kelly’s eyes and smile, and I was excited when we did a mini-portrait shoot at Back Bay. The flowers were incredible!

Marta and I worked on a project together in the studio. I took some photos of her to test my setup…

Getting kids to sit still for a photo can be challenging, but it’s nothing compared to trying to round up a couple of chickens…
