Mommy & Me: Los Angeles Portraits

Of course I'm a tad behind on blogging, I feel very blessed to be busy with this little photography business... I love what I do & I hope it is portrayed in the final product I offer all my clients.

Anyway, get ready folks, the following photos will give you baby boy fever! :) I went to high school with Jessy and when she contacted me to document her & Ezra I was really looking forward to it. In the end they were so much fun to shoot! :)

Here are some of my favorites:

He's killing me with that bow tie!

And of course THAT smile! 

Ezra, your so cute & melt my heart.

I'm in LOVE with the emotion & lighting captured in the next frames...

Esther + Exau // Los Angeles 1 Year Anniversary Portraits

I'm honored to do what I love. Capture love with my camera in the purest form. Esther & Exau contacted me to update their portrait for their first wedding anniversary.  And let me tell you, these two are still very much in love as if it was just yesterday that they walked down the aisle. There is no doubt that they have a lifetime of anniversaries ahead of them! Here are a few of my favorites...

Your gorgeous Esther!

 Ever since I began my photography journey, 

I've LOVED capturing the way a man looks at his woman. 

Especially when she is not looking.

*SWOON*

 

 

 

Again, Happy Anniversary you two. May the good Lord continue to bless your life & marriage in ways you never imagined.

HAPPY FRIDAY!!

Letter to my daughter: Happy 18 months Emma!

My dearest Emma:

I can't even begin to fathom that you are officially a "toddler" now! Your soul is so beautiful it radiates. I can't believe I get to be your momma. I feel incredibly blessed.

As you grow, so does your personality. Although you can be very shy at first, you always seem to warm up to new people at the perfect time. Some of your favorite words right now are "go", "yeah", "than chu", "mas", "yum" and my least favorite "no" ;) On occasion you still speak in your own language, which I think is you mimicking us speak English. It's soo cute! You LOVE to sing! I'll have to record ya one of these days so you can hear yourself one day. And you love to carry a camera, necklace & purse around everywhere. Your favorite dolls right now are the cabbage-patch & the Angelina Ballerina. Somehow you always find a way to make Papa & I laugh hysterically at dinner time, baby girl, we love you soo much! You will always be my "baby girl."

And now that you'll be a big sister in just a few short months, I have no doubts that you will be an amazing big sister. My heart swells up just thinking about it.

And apparently, I'm funny! ;)

I love you more than words....

Your mama <3

I can't believe it, my baby is officially 14 months today! I feel soo blessed to be her mommy. Stumbled upon this quote & it pretty much sums up the way I feel for her

Love:

To feel with one's whole self the existence of another being.

She's doesn't look like a baby so much does she? :( But always silly!
