Last chance to order photos from 2007-2009

Tokarz family portrait session @ our garden staudio - Newport Beach, CA

We took this couples' photos for their weddings a few years ago at Tivoli Terrace. Their son is adorable and we LOVE seeing past clients entering this new stage of life.

I hope everyone had a great Christmas! We had a great one this year. We didn't go crazy with gifts, tried to do minimal things. The boys had a great time and Brian and I enjoyed our morning as well. This is the first year Brian REALLY gets it. He left cookies and a carrot out for Santa and his reindeer. He also left a letter to Santa. Here it is:
Dear Santa,
Santa likes Brian. He delivers all the presents. Then he plays and makes snowmen. A penguin goes into the water. And he gets out. He jumps in the snow. I want a superhero bike and he gets a big hug and has fun. That's all the words. The End. Love, Brian
Oh! Tyler loves Santa too!
Classic, isn't it? Anyway - I have tons of photos to post - but again - I am trying to stay in order - so I thought I would post our Christmas Card (and a few clients as well). Ours was an accordion folded card on glossy paper. Because I am feeling so big and pregnant - it was just easier to take the photos myself this year of only the kiddos. I am a HUGE fan of having the whole family in the shot - so this will most likely be the only year we didn't take a "family" photo. Now I have to start thinking of ideas for next year! Any suggestions? :)

This one was different - we cut off an inch on the bottom of the front of the card - so you could see the Merry Christmas from the inside part of the card:

Children's photography session @ our garden studio Newport Beach, CA

I know it's been awhile - as always - things have been hectic. I am going to have quite a few posts in the next few days. Everything from our family vacation & the 4th of July to numerous shoots I have been doing this month. Here is a quick shot of one I did the end of June - she is such a cutie! I got to photograph her parents wedding, when she was in her mother's womb, then when she was a newborn. I wish they lived closer so we could see her more often!

Orange County Performing Arts Center children's photography session - Costa Mesa, CA

Fun kids in a grown-up location. :)
We wanted something more unique - so we headed over to the performing arts area for pix. The mom is going to be having her fourth baby any day - so we wanted to get some photos before things get hectic in their house (not to say that they may not be already!) :) Such sweet kids - we had a lot of fun. I was actually rolling in the grass with them. I sure do love my job! Working with kids makes me be a kid again and I love it!

She looks so sweet - one of my favorites of the whole shoot.
