Fun with the Macadams || Family session

Last weekend, I had the opportunity to shoot the MacAdams' holiday portraits. It was a super chilly day, but that didn't stop us from having fun! Jason and I headed out to a near by park to hang out and shoot with Ty, Kendall, Tiana and Kaiden.

A few images from their session -

Sylvia + Johnny || Engagement

Saturday was an exciting day for me. I photographed the Horton family in the morning and then in the afternoon I met up with Sylvia and Johnny for their e-session in Old Sacramento. This lovely couple is from the Bay Area and I was so excited that they were in Sac for their engagement shoot. It's been really cold in Sacramento for the past few days; Saturday, especially, was very chilly and gloomy in Roseville. The sky cleared off a bit by the time we got to Sacramento.

Old Sac is one of my favorite places to shoot. I love the rustic look of the places which give the images a differnt vibe. We also found an old record store where we ended up shooting. Johnny is a DJ and obviously plays with music a lot, so it was just the place for them to shoot at.

It was wonderful working with Sylvia and Johnny. Sylvia will make such a beautiful bride! S & J - I hope you two enjoy the teasers.

Tatum

I finally met Tatum during the Thanksgiving holiday. Her mom Candace and I have been friends from my first day at college(literally). For the last one year I only saw in pictures how beautiful Tatum was! I was thrilled to finally see her in person. I was eagerly waiting for their arrival and when they got here, Tatum greeted me with her beautiful smile. She was a bundle of joy; I missed her so dearly after they left on Saturday.

I have spent several Thaksgivings and Christmases with Candace and her family. I was ecstatic that Candace, Charles and Tatum were with us this year. The Turkey was delicious for sure, but the company was a precious one. I was thankful for the friendship we shared all these years and I hope to preserve this for many more years to come...

Lili

I can't describe how adorable this beautiful little girl is. All I can say is that I can't get enough of her :)

These are a few of miss Lili's pictures from this morning's photo shoot., don't forget to leave me some blog luv ;) More from the Horton family session coming soon...

oh baby!

So many things have happened during the Thanksgiving break! I have been away from computer most of the time, spending time with my family and friends. I had my college friends visiting us from Portland last week for Thanksgiving(we had a blast, wait for the next post), then I spent an evening with the newborn baby Ethan. Ethan was born to Sheila and Ronak two weeks ago. Here are some teasers from his photo session last night.

He was not camera-shy at all to begin with! In fact he was following me as he was posing :)


He almost had a smile!


And then he was done! Baby Ethan was ready to go back to his mommy :)

I kinda felt bad that we had to take his warm blanket away and put him on the couch while he was quiely minding his own business, but I had to take some pictures :) We had fun spending time with the kabir family last night. I wish Sheila and Ronak the very best for their new baby. I bet little Ethan is going to grow so fast that he'll be going to college before we even know!

Janine & Kevin || Second shoot

Janine and Kevin tied the knot last month at the beautiful Forest House in Forest Hill. It was my pleasure to second shoot with Doug Miranda at their wedding. I know I have taken too long to publish these images, I was just swamped with too many things.

More detail on the wedding coming soon, in the meantime, please enjoy the images...
