the Baldwin family
It was such an honor to shoot Lara and her sweet family! They are based in Northern California and this trip was only to avoid the crazy fire season, but we made lemonade out of lemons! I’m so happy it worked out!
Parenting OC Magazine
This was such a fun project! Originally, I was just being interviewed for Parenting OC Magazine, about the “pandemic” pods we had formed to supplement the 2020 school year. In the end, I shot the entire feature! I loved getting to see it all come together! And spotting them throughout Orange County is definitely an added perk!
Back to School Minis!
Back to school minis are here!

Graduation pictures are here! Now that parks are allowing some traffic, we can bring out the BIG numbers! I’m doing 10 minute sessions at two different locations. Gum Grove (weekdays only per restrictions) and Rossmoor Park. I am more than willing to set them up at a different location if you have 6 or more ready to book.
I’m offering these at a super discount to honor this class, my son is one of those kiddos missing his promotion activities, so I have a soft stop for the kids of 2020. It’s $65 for a 10 minute session (cash or venmo preferred) and includes 10 pictures with a mix of the 2020 and portraits without the numbers.
Give me all the pent up personality! I’m ready for it!
These can be for all kinds of graduates, preschool through college! I’m also having a whole set of these numbers made, so your kindergartner in 2020 can be in front of the same numbers in 2033!
Yikes! That sounds so far away!
Session start this Friday, May 22. Let me know if I can answer any questions! I hope to see you soon!
#theFrontStepsProject
An artist who shares the same rep as my husband, posted a beautiful portrait by Cara Soulia, a family photographer in Boston. She started the Front Step Project, and I think it is just brilliant! Here is the article…
I love the idea of documenting this time and finding the beauty in the chaos! If you would like me to come to you, just shoot me an email! I’ll drive to your house, text you when I’m outside, and do a free 5 minutes session from 6 feet away (thank God for zoom lenses)! How you want to look is up to you! Sweats? Awesome! Formal wear? Let’s do it! All the Halloween costumes you could find in your house? I’m in! Show me what you got! I’ll send you an album with my favorites within the week! Shoot me an email at hello@wishingyouhappiness.com and we’ll make it happen!
Tomblin family
so back to blogging/quarantine day 1...
We are currently in COVID 19 craziness! That means we are basically quarantined to our houses home schooling our kiddos. It’s scary and confusing, but being stuck at home is great for getting a creative to kick into high gear. I’m doing a quarantine series to keep my sanity in check, along with giving this site a much needed facelift. Here’s to momentum! quarantine
Holiday Minis are back!
I have a few more spots left! It’s been amazing having so many repeat kiddos! I love watching them grow up! Let me know when you are free and we’ll find a spot for you!
The Bantle Family
All the cousins came together for this one! They wanted to surprise the grandparents and I have to say, they did a good job! You could feel the love between the cousins! I loved watching their personalities come out!
