There is just something about working with a family in their beautiful home that brings out the best in everyone.  It doesn’t hurt that God gave this family some amazing genes…. seriously they are all gorgeous.  I absolutely love the style of their home and the light is really truely yummy.  The best compliment I received when the session was complete is “it is so great to have our own personal family photographer”!  I hope to be documenting this families grandbabies and greatgrandbabies, etc.!  Enjoy!

Baby boys…. oh how I love capturing their winning smiles, their spirit, their energy and well, yes trying to catch them.  This guy really gave me a run for my money.  I absolutely love capturing small kiddos in an open environment, but the only trouble is there is also lots of room to run.  Mom and Dad were great at playing games, making silly faces and just entertaining him long enough to get some amazing smiles.  He loves music and his Mommy and Daddy, as long as they aren’t touching.  I know right, he gets mad if they hug or kiss!  Again, another challenge when you are trying to get great group shots.  I think we managed anyway!  It was so amazing to get to know this beautiful family and I hope to get to enjoy them for many years to come! ;)  Enjoy.

Is it already September???  This year has been roaring by!  Seriously, there is only about 10 weekends left until our holiday card cut off.  Please book early this year, because we are already, almost completely booked on the weekends for October.  I want to make sure all of the families I love seeing every year have an opportunity to get the prime lighting spots.  Also… I would really, really, really appreciate it if you would vote for Blue Sky’s this year for Children’s Photographer of the Year.  We only have a few weeks to vote, so just take a moment!  I thank you so much!   To vote, click on this link: Children’s Photographer of the Year!  Have a beautiful day!

There is nothing I like better than kids!  They are quick to play games, love to play make believe and let me fulfill my need to play dress up on a regular basis.  I hadn’t seen these two kiddos since I did a newborn shoot with this gorgeous girl (Mom, it was definitely toooo long!  I missed you…. :)  Mom and dad definitely passed on the beautiful genes, cause this whole family is a photographers dream come true!  Not only that, but they were super, duper easy to work with!  Can I say “I LOVE my job”!  Anywho… I wanted to give a quick sneak peak.  More to follow!   Also, fyi to all of my Blue Sky’s family and friends, my schedule is already almost filled for October.  Please call to book your holiday session as soon as possible so we have lots of time to play and get amazing images. Enjoy.

I love a big, happy, crazy, silly, challenging family photography session!  Seriously, this gets my heart pumping and my creativity flowing!  I love jumping around, making a specticle, just to get kids to laugh.   I guess this was why when I looked at the time, almost two hours had past and it seemed like no time at all while photographing the Montgomery family.  Each year they do a camping vacation in San Clemente State Park with lots of family and friends.  They start their trip off with a family photography session.  I love this tradition, as it really captures the story of this family over the years.  Thanks to their whole family for being amazing to work with!  I will let the images from the day, tell it all!  Enjoy!
