I can’t believe it’s already been a year since Felix first blessed the world with his appearance. What a joy he is and such a boy too! He’s constantly on the go and getting into anything he can… with a huge smile on his face of course. He’s such a happy baby! Too cute!

I can’t believe Miss Rylie is almost two already! We met up at the Santa Monica Pier a couple of days ago to document the milestone for this little lady. She is talking up a storm now and continues to develop quite the personality. She had a good time playing in the sand although after a while it did seem to clash with her need to be sand free. This is a girl who knows what she wants and she likes to be neat and clean. It’s so cute to see an almost two year old ask you politely to help her clean her hands each time she gets sand on them (at the beach)… too cute… she was cracking us up all day.

A little over a year ago I photographed Lissette and Ted’s wedding. When they told me they were expecting a baby girl soon I was so excited and honored that they asked me to document this special time for them. Lissette actually gave birth to little Rose shortly after this session so we got these pics just in the nick of time. I’m so happy for them and I can’t wait to meet Rose sometime soon. Congratulations Lissette and Ted!

I recently got to photograph Miss Rylie again. And I have to say every time I see her I swear she gets cuter and cuter and girlier if you can believe it. This little girl loves the color pink, her mom’s makeup, clothes, and bows in her hair. She’s absolutely adorable and a joy to be around.

Last weekend I photographed the Sarner family in Griffith Park at the Trails Cafe. This place is so cute and the perfect spot for a fall photo shoot. And it doesn’t hurt that I had a fun loving and adventurous family as my subject. I think little Rose has the cutest smile and she is quite the director. Many of the shots were her idea. I think her “surprise” face is my favorite. Later in the shoot she hiked up the hill and got a little splinter in her finger but she was quite the trooper while her dad removed it. A total pro!

Last weekend I photographed the Staat family. I see them once a year and every year I’m amazed at how much Peyton has grown. She really is turning into quite the young lady. And little Jake is such the explorer. I really got my exercise with him. He loves to walk and walk and walk. I’m sure he would walk clear across the neighborhood if his mom would let him. He’s just so adorable! And him and Peyton get along so well… she’s a great big sister!

I had the pleasure of photographing the Daly family again for the holidays. I always enjoy seeing them. They’re always so happy and such a loving family. Felix is getting cuter and cuter if that’s even possible and Beatrice is such a sweet big sister. She really likes to kiss him and she’s so gentle. It really is adorable!

Last weekend I met up with the Phillips Family in Santa Monica to take some family portraits. It’s been over a year since I’ve seen them and I can’t believe how much the girls have grown! Last time I saw Tessa she couldn’t even walk yet and now she’s running around in the sand looking for seashells. And Kayla has turned out to be quite the big sister. You can tell how much she cares about Tessa…. she was hugging her, dancing with her, and even helped her dig a hole in the sand. How cute! And Mom and Dad got in on the action too… chasing the girls around and even getting a little wet. I like that they’re not afraid to get a little messy and have fun.

Beatrice just celebrated her second birthday! Her party was held in the backyard with homemade pasta and cupcakes on the menu. She had such a great time running and playing with her cousins. Everyone would chase her and once she was caught she’d say, “Again! Again!” Just too cute!! This little one is such a joy. I’m so glad she had a fabulous time at her party.

Last weekend I met Rylie in Griffith Park to take a few photos. She has just turned one year old and I just can’t believe it! She was running through the park, dancing and laughing. And she was quite the fall fashionista in her sweater and boots. Too cute!! It is always a pleasure to see this little smiling princess. Happy Birthday Miss Rylie!
