Lifestyle photography and life photographed, my passions shared with everyone !
Made these for a dear friend to adorn her cheerful and loving home! Take time to cherish the little ones who make your life complete!

Birthday party signs customized for year or a more generalized one that can be reused over time and then placed in their memories book! Using colors they love to make it more personalized!



If you decide to make them yourself, order from parks and tally or another local designer be creative and include your personality in fonts and colors, make them all about expressing yourself!
Had a great time with this wonderful family in Redlands. Such beautiful girls and that little one wow is she a spitfire! Good thing they have such a great older brother looking out for them all! Thank you Elaina and Justin for sharing your wonderful family, you are very lucky indeed.










It finally got cold enough to need jeans and a sweatshirt in socal. I was ecstatic, of course my poor children other than the baby were in a scramble as they had no jeans to wear that fit. That happens sometimes when the weather goes from 105 to 55 seemingly overnight. If you spoke to my eldest you would have sworn it was going to snow right here in the foothills, as it was it only snowed at the very tippy top of the local mountains. But it did finally get me in the mood for halloween and make me realize it will be here before I know it and we are not at all prepared. Autumn is such a fun time to take photos, here are some autumn images I like ....




I did not have a blog at the time I did this newborn shoot for a dear friend and her sweetie pie Brooklyn. So I thought I would revisit how little she was now that she is almost 6 mos old! I am sure her family is amazed at how quickly she is growing already.
My eldest just turned 13 and believe me there is a time when you look back and do not remember how sweet they smelled and how lovely their skin felt up against yours, how tiny their little hands and feet were in yours. Time sure does fly and it is important to remember to capture all the small details to look back on wether through a professional or your own camera . Please promise me in some way to document their sweet beginnings and I promise you that you will look back at these heart felt memories and cry happy tears one day!
I hope you enjoy looking back on this sweet lil baby girl and think of your own lil bundles of joy when they were teeny tiny....
Teeny tiny fingers
Bright eyed even when so little
This lithe piggy went to the market this little piggy
Fuzzy soft hair and adorable little ears
All bundled up ready to dream sweat dreams.......
I thank you Megan and Aron for sharing such a sweet baby with me and allowing me to capture her every tiny detail for you ! I think it is time for a 1/2 year photo shoot Megan!
I had a blog on blogger I think and it takes me forever to post. I had a website thru my mac and they did not provide iweb on my new mac! So I guess I am testing the waters to see how this blog works.
Since it is a photo blog here are some summer photos! I have a love hate relationship with summer I love for it to come and then reality hits- all five kids are home all day complaining they are bored and I can get nothing done. No shoots, no housework, no editing etc. well my house about falls to pieces but there is a lot to be said for not having to run little ones and not so little ones to school and back all day long. So there is the good an bad of it all....
Signs of summer!

Humming friends visit.

Blueberries which my tiniest loves!

Little ones admiring a weeds beauty!
Lovely summer photos more to come later this week.
