Beautiful Baby Girl | Orange County Newborn Photographer

Melissa was thrilled to find out that she would be having a little baby girl!  Now that she has an adorable little boy and a perfect baby girl their family is complete.  Melissa is an incredible photographer who I had the privilege of working with over the past three years photographing weddings.  There is so much pressure photographing another photographer's family; but she knows how that feels since she (and our other dear friend, Amanda) photographed my wedding in December 2008.  You can be sure that she is an awesome photographer (and great person) since I asked her to shoot my wedding.  Melissa and Kyle, I couldn't be happier for you to have your precious baby girl.  Landon, you will be an incredible big brother.  Thank you for allowing be to be a part of your family journey.  It was truly an honor. Melissa, you are gorgeous in this image below! I hope I can look as good as you only 10 days after having a baby!

Congrats again, Melissa and Kyle... you are wonderful parents and wish you all the best!

Twitter | Pasadena Family Photographer

It took me a long time to get to this point.  I heard about Twitter several years ago from some other photographer friends, but I was a hard one to convince.  I am fairly private with my personal life, so the idea of putting my thoughts and tweets online for anyone and everyone to see just felt so odd to me.  But, I know it has become a really important aspect of business. After months of thinking to myself, "I really need to get a Twitter account for my business," I finally did it!  There is a lot of pressure to think of something creative or funny for your first tweet so I decided to take the pressure off and just start already.  You can check out my recent tweets in the sidebar on the left or go directly to my Twitter account. Hope to meet you in the Twitter world soon!

An Early Arrival | Pasadena Newborn Photographer

I thoroughly enjoyed photographing little "M" during his first week of life!  Born a few weeks before his due date, he was so mellow and sweet... what a dream!  I just love his dark hair and little, rosy lips.  I was able to move from pose to pose and even try some new ones, too.  Thanks J and N for being so great to work with.  I am confidant that you will be incredible parents.  I really enjoyed visiting and discovering all of the friends that we have in common... what a small world we live in!  Congratulations again!
