So WAAAAAAAAAAAAAY back in December (seems like forever ago already), I took a short trip to Florida to visit a friend. I met her in a very unconventional way on a Ebay seller’s forum about 4 years ago. We became really close and we finally had the chance to meet. Let me just tell you that my weirdness and spastic nature have been unmatched in my lifetime. . .until I met Angela. She is a freak of nature and we are two peas in a pod. I nicknamed her Gateer and she calls me Nacle (as do many others). When I went to visit her, I also met one of her neighbors. She asked me, “So, how do you spell your name?” I said, “K-r-i-s-t-i-n”. She in turn replied, “Wait, I thought your name was Nacle”. I laughed so hard, I cried. Who in their right mind would name their poor child Nacle? Apparently, Angela calls me that all.the.time to her friends/family, so they just assumed that was my real name. Even her kid’s call me Nacle.

While out there, we had a blast shopping, eating, shopping, drinking coffee’s, shopping, eating, and drinking more coffee. I also was able to take some pictures of her and her four beautiful children. I am looking forward to another trip out to Orlando sometime this year!

Little Sophie is one year old already! You may remember her from earlier posts when she was just a wee newborn and then an adorable 6 month old. I think I only had a few shots where she wasn’t smiling from this session. I love seeing my newborn client’s grow!!!

Stay tuned for sweet, yummy baby goodness tomorrow on the blog!

Meet the Bons family. Mom, Kristen (it’s a good name), is also a photographer in San Diego and just recently started her business and for good reason, she rocks! They won an auction I donated to our kids’ school and I couldn’t be happier to have had the opportunity to photograph their family. Not only were they easygoing, but they were fun. . .and I caught myself smiling and laughing while looking through all their pictures. Now that’s a good session!

I am going to share a lot so hold onto your seats and grab a cool, refreshing beverage! I think you’ll enjoy seeing just how fabulous their family is.

Aren’t they puuuuuuuurty!?!?

Now it’s time for some fun!!! On your marks, get set. . .

GO!!!!

A fun idea they had!

Now it’s time for a little race action. . .who is going to win this one? I’m thinking Dad is trying to cheat in this first one. Tsk tsk.

Cheaters never prosper.

Boys being boys. . .

and a girl who doesn’t want to miss out on the good times.

“You WILL smile and you will like it!”

This one just makes me giggle for some reason.

And that’s a wrap!

I have so many more that I just love, but all good things must come to an end.

xoxo

Oh how I love babies! Isn’t this little guy scrumptious?!?! I just loved his mommy and daddy’s bed as a backdrop too. I love when you can incorporate a part of the home in family portraits! I had trouble narrowing down my fav’s so I’m sharing a bunch of this gorgeous family!!

I think 99% percent of the family sessions I’ve done involved bribing with dessert/ice cream at the end! Who doesn’t want ice cream, right?!?! And these two cuties were no different and couldn’t wait for their treat at the end of our session. I had never seen so many people at the beach in La Jolla that day, but we made it work and ended up with some great pictures of this beautiful family!!

I’ve been fighting a cough/cold all week so I’m a bit behind. Stay tuned for lots of blog posts the next couple of weeks!

Remember this sweet little face??

Little Sophie is 6 months old now!! Crazy how time flies! She is a stunning baby isn’t she? Such a sweet, angelic girl face. Sophie was not a fan of sitting on the ground in the great outdoors, but we still managed some beautiful images of her. I can’t wait to see what she looks like in 6 more months!! So fun to watch them grow. Without further adieu. . .

Meet the gorgeous Winsby family! Liz, aka Mom, is a fabulous Tulsa photographer, Elizabeth Winsby. I felt very honored to take her family pictures while they were out in San Diego for a summer vacation. Their two adorable girls were so much fun and full of energy. . .check out the last pic to see what I mean.We got some amazing shots and I am going to share WAY more than I normally do so hold on to your hats!!!!!!!!!

This is how I feel most days with my 3 kiddos, so I thought it would be fun to capture the “whirlwind”!

Meet 13 day old Nolan. . .I am happy to report that he was THE easiest newborn baby I’ve photographed yet. His mommy was astounded at how well he behaved and blamed it on the fact that he was up for hours the previous night. Needless to say, I have a LOT of amazing images of this little guy so get ready for a bunch of pics! I wish I could show them all!

Oh and someone asked me if I hire models for my sessions.Nope! I am just incredibly lucky to have so many gorgeous clients, this family is no exception!

Something about this green wrap makes babies smile!

I love love love chunky babies. I’m particularly drawn to them because both of my boys were/are chubbalicious and it makes them so squeezable. This little guy was full of rolls and chunky goodness and I wanted to eat him right up! These are just some of my fav’s from the evening!!
