“A vacation is like love – anticipated with pleasure, experienced with discomfort, and remembered with nostalgia.”

~Author Unknown

My family and I are taking a much-needed vacation to Cali from Thursday, July 1st until Tuesday, July 6th.  I will be checking emails intermittently, but will probably be slow to get back to you.  Clients, all orders will be processed upon my return.  If you email with an inquiry and do not hear from me in a timely manner, be sure that I will get back to you as soon as we get back next week.  Thanks so much and have a fabulous 4th of July!!

One of the most important considerations for your session is what you are going to wear.  You want to feel comfortable, relaxed and fun!  I always suggest to my clients that they wear something that is a little more than what they would wear on a typical day but that is still them.   Textures, interesting and vibrant colors, chunky jewelry, headbands, hats, fun shoes, scarves and layers are all fabulous additions to any photograph.  Here is a little quick inspiration for all my fab female clients–have fun!!  P.S.  If you are curious as to where these are from…contact me and we’ll set up a session!

Do you see that blur?    That’s little brother whizzing past me as I try to snap his photograph.  Whew!  What amazing energy he had–so fun!  When I first met this family and our session began, little bro was reserved and a bit dazed.  I asked if he had just woken up from a nap.  Sure enough, he was just waking up.  In no time at all, he was up and at ‘em.  He loved to zip back and forth and really enjoyed having his loving big bro chase him.  I just love it when kiddos have energy and a zeal for life.  My own son is the same way–always moving.  These are the moments that we fail to remember unless they are captured on film.  The playfulness and the hint of  mischieviousness in the eyes.  What a great family–thanks so much!!
