Little Miss Independent
Posted in portraits
Today I met up with the Neideffer Family to attempt some family portraits. However, Miss Aliyah wasn’t having any of it. She was as happy as can be on her own, but not really into sharing the spotlight with her parents. Leeana and Don were such troopers though! Thank you guys so much! I had so much fun and I thought you deserved to see at least one image of your little Miss Independent tonight. She is just the cutest!

What a gorgeous family! I had so much fun with these four! And I love their names too! Avery, Tanner, Bella and Benson.
Avery is Lauren’s sister-in-law whose family I photographed just last week and it is pretty apparent that they are all one big gorgeous family.
Thanks guys! beijos, Cristi 
These are fantastic Cristi! What a great family!

I’ve missed my boss!
Posted in portraits
I love Pam! Pam was my boss while I worked as a dietitian at Banner Baywood Heart Hospital. It is hard to believe we actually worked together for 5 years! Pam is such an incredible person. She has always been supportive of me not just in my growth in my career as a dietitian but even in my photography endeavors. Pam was one of the first people who let me photograph their family. Brave woman!
I still remember the knot in my stomach as I walked in her office to announce that I was leaving. It was awful! I didn’t want to let her down, she had been such a great mentor and I loved my job there but I just had to leave and try new things. As I should have expected, Pam was so gracious and while I know she was disappointed I was leaving she was once again incredibly supportive.
I was so happy to see her last week for some quick family portraits. Seeing how much her kids have grown makes me feel so old!
She has three gorgeous kids:
And Kendall deserves his own awesome portrait for putting up with all the girls during the shoot:
Love this family!
Pam, I am soo happy you are my friend! I miss seeing you on a daily basis but I don’t miss the early morning clinical meetings I hope you love your images!
I love them! I can’t wait to see the rest. Thank you sooo much.

I was so excited when Lauren contacted me about my “Holiday Family Portraits Special”. Lauren is a cardiovascular ICU nurse and we worked together back when I was working at the hospital and only dreaming about having my own photography business. Lauren is like a real life TV character who is gorgeous, smart, kind, and amazing at what she does. The last time I saw Lauren at the hospital she was still pregnant and now her little one just turned one!
How cute is he?!!
Love his serious face:
The cute parents:
I love the bright colors they wore!
My most favorite father and son photo ever:
And mother and son (I couldn’t choose a favorite)…
Such a fun family!
Thanks guys SO SO much! You were incredible!

Allen Family Portraits
Posted in family portraits | portraits
Cutest family you’ve ever seen? Yes, I know, I know… my clients are the cutest! And this is one of my favorite images I’ve ever taken!
It had been a while since I shot a family session and it was so great to meet the Allen family and capture some fun family moments for them. It made me realize how much I miss family sessions so if you’ve been procrastinating and haven’t scheduled a session for this Holiday Season, you are in luck! Come back and check the blog tomorrow as I will be announcing some really great news for you. You will be able to save money and help others in need.
For now, enjoy this awesome family session
I love Nate’s enthusiasm here. I think we were talking about airplanes.
He could seriously model for Gap kids:
Nope, we had no fun at all 
Is there a greater feeling than flying in your dad’s arms when you are 3 years old? I don’t think so.
Good looking family and I just love Nate’s pose here:
Before anyone asks, nope I did not photoshop his eyes.
And look at this charming smile… He is on his way to breaking many girls’ hearts. I am sure.
Thanks again guys! I hope you love your images
There are no comments so far. You should leave the first!
