Moran and Tarafder Families | Hacienda Heights Family Photography (Schabarum Park)

what an angelic cherub baby A was during the entire session! she was such a trooper despite having her nap pushed back. having grown up in hacienda heights, i had visited schabarum park countless times but had never seen the light as perfect as it was this particular afternoon. storm clouds loomed overhead but cast picture perfect lighting throughout -- we certainly lucked out!

Dom's Holiday Session | Rancho Palos Verdes Family Photographer (South Coast Botanical Gardens)

what a great afternoon to take photos of the park! it was just 45 minutes before closing so we practically had the entire place to ourselves. we were free to run like the wind and play in the fountain to our heart's content. :-)

Holidays with the Stultz Family | Redondo Beach Family Photography

i could think of no location better than hopkins wilderness park for the stultz family holiday shoot! not only is the light usually very good here, but it's a veritable child's paradise: a winding stream beckons for further investigation, large koi ponds full of turtles, swans, and ducks to feed, and plenty of rocks and trees to climb. since snow never comes to LA, we thought we'd bring a bit of winter here with our snowflake confetti. just check out the adorable dimples on little b! :-)

Emily's Maternity Session | Alhambra Maternity Photography

 
isn't emily the most gorgeous pregnant woman you've ever seen? although i was a bit nervous about my first ever maternity session, i quickly put at ease by emily and charles' cheerful and easy going personalities. thanks to pinterest, we had so many ideas we wanted to execute but so little time! i think photography should always be this fun. ;-)
