First birthday photoshoot Seal Beach

All the Covid Kiddos are turning one, and I am here for it! How adorable is this little one! Those big brown eyes are swoon worthy! She was all about staring straight into the camera, but the way to her heart was though here Daddy’s car keys! A girl after my own heart!

Doctorate!!!!

Do you know what is better than one doctor in the house? Two!!! I could not be more proud of my dear friend Michelle. She is a superwoman that not only got her doctorate, she did it during a pandemic with her daughter home 24-7, and a new puppy to boot! I can’t tell you how fun it was to take photos of two robed Doctors! Everyone yelling their congrats! Such a cool experience!

New Puppy for the win!

When is the best time to get family portraits? When you get a new puppy of course. This little lady is so loved and has probably doubled in size this week!!! I loved being able to capture this sweet moment!

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!

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
