san diego professional photographer | cousins
I’ve mentioned in passing hiring someone to help me keep on top of some things in my business. So, I thought I’d introduce her. . . .only, she won’t let me take her picture. Only, she doesn’t realize I did snap one of her dancing with some balloons. That’s what she gets for not letting me take her picture.
Her name is Lisa. It’s a good name, one of my other very best friends is named Lisa. 😉 This Lisa and I so happen to share the same birthday. We kind of “get” each other and our personalities clicked right away. She’s quirky, she’s fun, she sings, she dances, she drinks coffee. . .she’s pretty much me. Except for her creativity runs in a whole different direction then mine. While she has some mad skillz behind the lens (she’s currently a hobbyist), it doesn’t stop there. She sews, quilts, knits, bakes, designs, creates, etc, etc, etc. She’s kind of a freak of nature. But a good one. Even if I have to enlist her services to cut hearts out that don’t look like my three year old did it. She did all of my branding for my Photoshop Actions and is helping me behind the scenes with some of my business tasks which is AWESOME and takes some stress off of me. My husband thanks her for that.
Enter Lisa’s niece.
My mission was to take two-year-old pictures of the birthday girl and some with her three cousins for grandma and grandpa. Pictures of the birthday girl were tough, but we managed some great ones of her. However, pictures of her with her cousins failed miserably lol. That’s ok, next time!!! With two-year-old’s, you take what you get! I did manage a few great ones of Lisa’s girls though so I’ll show you those first and then you can see Miss D’s sweet face!
Later balloons!
These are great, Kristin! I love the tent, and the girls are all beautiful! Fabulous job. 🙂

Tis’ good to be named Lisa, lol! I hope to meet this other Lisa <3 These pictures are fabulous. The girls are beautiful. So jealous (in a good way) of that orchard and that Lisa gets to spend so much time with you in real life.

You got wonderful shots of EVERYONE–and 2 IS a hard age!!! A friend has adorable twins who are two, and I can’t get a good shot of the two of them together to save my life… And congrats on finding a new lifelong friend–they are such a treasure!

If my 2 cents counts I say “Lisa if you look THAT good in a candid dancing picture you would rock any photo you were ready for!” Of course Kristin once again love the session. So jealous you have an orange grove you can shoot in 😉
