Desireé & Jeremy - March 2009

Desireé and Jeremy will be expecting their first child next month. It's a boy! We had a great time shooting at their house in Nipomo yesterday. Desireé had lots of fun ideas for her maternity shoot, she was even prepared with props. I love it. I wish them all the luck with their new arrival. :)

Jessika's Baby Shower - May 2008

I recently went down to Southern California to photograph Jessika's baby shower. I don't know that I have ever been to a baby shower as an adult, so it was interesting to see. I am posting some pictures of the games, they were entertaining to watch. Baby Taleia will be here in about a month!

This game was really gross... candy bars in diapers? It must be a baby shower thing.
This game they had to put a marshmallow in their mouth and then say a baby related word.
5 Marshmallows...
5 Marshmallows...
The mommy-to-be with 6 marshmallows...
And the winner with 8 marshmallows... Impressive. :)
Melvin gives this gift the thumbs up.




This is her America's Next Top Model pose.

Cake, yummy! :)

Staci, Michael, & Jeremiah - May 2008

Staci, Michael and Jeremiah are such a sweet little family. They will be expecting a new arrival to their family this summer. Although Jeremiah was a little resistant to having his picture taken, I think we were still able to get some cute shots in. He was especially excited when my sister/assistant found a golf ball while we were shooting. They became instant friends. Wish I had found the golf ball. :)

Michelle & Ana - April 2008

Let me start by saying that we are having the most beautiful weather right now. It was perfect at Shell Beach, sun shining, nice cool breeze. Perfect. Michelle is due in a month, they will be welcoming Jacob into their family. Ana is excited to have a little brother. Michelle is going to have her hands full. We had a fun morning at the beach shooting, while Ana collected/observed sea creatures.

Kati, Don & Caden - April 2008

Kati, Don and Caden were so much fun to work with. It definitely kept me on my toes while shooting. Caden is just a little ball of energy and he just wanted to zoom around. Kati is due in about a month, and she looks absolutely radiant.
