Laguna beach Family Portrait: Birthdays and Fall Leaves

Right now, & these last few weeks, is the most beautiful time for natural, warm light of the year.  Each morning, I take just a moment to truely appreciate the crisp sailboat blue ocean and the white puffy clouds in the sky (granted that is when the mornings are not overcast).  I love shooting this time a year because I feel I have more time to spend with families and my creative muscles need a good stretching.  Though these were shot in 2013, I still love both the light in my studio and in the field just a few blocks away.  Not to mention that this beautiful family is always a pleasure to work with and the kiddos are always dressed to the nines (Mom and Dad look pretty great as well)!  Enjoy!

LAGUNA BEACH STUDIO PHOTOGRAPHY – VALENTINE’S LOVE

Kristin captured one of our favorite models, Miss Brooklyn, in a fun array of super cute Valentine’s Day looks in the studio for Valentine’s Day cards. It’s the season of love and we love how cute Miss Brooklyn’s photos turned out! A big hank you to Brooklyn and her equally beautiful mom for such a fun session and for the the adorable clothing!

Laguna Beach Photography – Shoe La La

So it’s upon us……the Christmas/Holiday Card season.  Yes, we have been busy putting together and designing Holiday Cards already (so if you haven’t booked your photo session for Holiday Cards, contact us to do so!!).  But last week, Kristin and I took a break from the “‘Tis the Season” chaos to have some fun in her Laguna Beach Studio with my daughter.  For the past 2 years, my 7 year old daughter has been begging me to allow her to try on my shoes….”just once Mom, please?”.  After saying “ummm….no” countless times, I finally agreed to let her do it and get it out of her system.  Kristin was there to document it.  Now at least I have proof that indeed, she did get to do it once.  Enjoy!

Laguna Beach Children’s photography: Beautiful Abella!

Ms. Abella is a vibrant, funny, silly beautiful girl who I had the pleasure of capturing with my camera.  Although she was in treatment and lost all her hair, that did not stop her from radiating joy and enthusiasm for her “glamour” session!  When I dropped off her art work just last week she said to me, you know I LOVE the balloon pics, but I really loved getting my pictures taken the most!  Really, a girl after my own heart!  Much love and hugs to her whole family!  I am so honored to call you friends! Enjoy!

Laguna Beach commercial photographer: Charisma Dolls: Take 2

I have a LOT of tricks up my sleeve after 10 years of owning Blue Sky’s Studio!  Most include bribes, telling stories, making silly faces, sneezing or …. reverse psychology!  All of these trick were EXTREMELY useful a few weeks ago at this commercial session from Adora Dolls!  I have been shooting for this company for several years, but we have never attempted to include babies and toddlers!  There was a lot of “this is my baby and you can’t hold it” to encourage the toddlers to hug the babies as well as peek a boo and fake sneezing.  The results, great portraits without anyone being the wiser to the craziness behind the scenes!

Thanks so all of the fabulous Mommys and Daddys for agreeing to participate!  More to come from Take 3!  Enjoy!
