Chelsie & Robby

Posted on August 6, 2010

No phone calls…emails…facebook…nothing other than writing letters. That’s how Chelsie & Robby are going to have to communicate for the next 6 months while Robby is off to South Carolina to join the army.

I promised Robby that I would post one photo for him to see before he leaves but thanks to well behaved kids I was able to work on more :)

Vicki and her boys

Posted on June 19, 2010

The last time Vicki got photos taken of her boys she said they had flat tops. Hmmm….I’m guessing that was not in last few years! :)

Yes these boys are typical teenagers and didn’t want to take photos but they did did it for mom and they were great :)

Vicki, I hope you enjoy these photos. I know it’s been a while since you’ve had photos taken!

This is the awkwardness of just starting the session and not really knowing what to do or how to pose. Which turned into a laugh which was just what I wanted :)

Lyssa’s Graduation Party

Posted on May 25, 2010

Lyssa’s Graduation party was at the Coco Palm in Pomona and it was amazing! A beautiful view fit for a wonderful night. It was nice to see her family again who I hadn’t seen since I was a kid. Congratulation Lyssa for all your hard work!

Are you kidding me!

Posted on November 2, 2009

Andre is an aspiring actor, model and rapper  and wanted some photos taken of himself. He told me that he was NOT photogenic! I was a bit worried after he said that…especially if he wants to be model. You have to be photogenic for that career! On my way to the session I remember thinking. “Oh man, this isn’t going to be easy!” Well….I show up and take one look at Andre and think “Are you kidding me!!!!!!!!!” He was awesome in front of the camera :) Andre, you are crazy if you still think you are not photogenic!

Joey & Amanda

Posted on September 19, 2009

No…not engagement photos. These two are already married and so in love.  I was shocked when Joey and Amanda told me that this was the FIRST time having a photographer photograph them! They said that their last “professional” pictures was from prom!!!! I was so glad to give them some new and updated photos :)

A day in Pasadena

Posted on August 17, 2009

I finally set aside a day just for me to get out and play with my camera. I went with my friend Megan who got some different shots from the day so check out her blog post. We wanted to play around with the sun a bit. I never have been able to get sun bursts in my shots before. I read this blog post from MCP Actions and realized what I was doing wrong. Now I got it! With a bit more practice I think I can get some great sun bursts, maybe something to hang in my house :)

dsc_0206-2009-08-15-at-16-28-40

I wanted to practice with different meter settings and white balance. So Megan was my BEAUTIFUL model!!!

dsc_0258-2009-08-15-at-18-02-09

We even met this little cutie :) I think I want one :)

Very different from the session 5 mins before. I wasn’t acting silly trying to get them to smile at me :)

I had fun shooting both families. I hope they enjoy their sneak peek!

All in one session

Posted on May 9, 2009

We managed to squeeze grad pics for both mom and daughter and family portraits all in one session. It was a fun and relaxing session. I really enjoyed shooting this family. There were a lot of pics I could have posted due to the fact that there was such a variety to choose from. But I just decided to pick my top 2. Enjoy!

Home sweet home

Posted on April 4, 2009

Tim and Angelina were such troopers! They were willing to be photographed at  a spot that I have been eyeing for a while. This spot isn’t the cutest place when you see it but I thought I could make something fun and different out of it. Tim is on leave from serving in Iraq and they wanted to get some pictures taken while he is home. Aren’t they cute!!!!
