just perfect | sacramento infant photographer

It always feels like Christmas to me when I finish a session and pop my compact flash into my computer. I get all giddy as I sit and wait for my files to copy into their new folder so I can view them and star my favorites. I especially feel that way after a session where I know I got lots of great images.

That’s how today’s session with {K} was. I just couldn’t wait to browse through all of the pictures and start editing them. And once I started, I just couldn’t stop! This little one was such a doll! Her eyes are so amazingly expressive and she’s at my favorite age where she can sit up but can’t crawl away out of my camera’s frame. Love that.

And I love these first two images. So much so that I think I might just order a canvas of one as a studio sample. The lighting was just perfect (which we had to work for–believe me). Being a natural light photographer has it’s challenges in the winter. We actually had {K} set up a couple of feet from the door and I did most of my shooting from out on the porch (with Dad and Mom taking turns making silly sounds and faces behind me.) Put all that together and you get the perfect session, don’t you agree?

Blog1Blog2Blog6Blog4Blog3Blog7Mom and Dad–I had a great time getting to know you and little {K} today. I hope you love your sneak peek! I’ll be in touch and will let you know when your gallery is ready!

mini valentines | sacramento children’s photographer

I held my mini valentine sessions this past Saturday and had such a great time with all of the kids that came out. There was another break in the storm so we had some beautiful natural light to work with. Here are just a few of the cuties from the mini sessions–more to come in another post.Blog3Blog1Blog3

bold and bright | sacramento child photographer

Oh my cuteness! I know I have said it before, but it bears repeating–I have the absolute cutest clients around. These dolls have to be some of the most beautiful sisters I have ever laid eyes on. I was so excited to photograph them again this weekend and was over the moon when Mom pulled out all of their outfits–color, color, and more color! As a photographer I love to photograph color, and to me, the brighter the better. There is something so fun and playful–something that just screams childhood–about bright, bold colors.

And Mom totally knows my style. I love when she pulled out one of the wardrobe changes and said, “You’re going to go out this week and get this one, aren’t you?” And you know what? I already had the outfit for my own little girl! Talk about being in sync! Love it! I also have a feeling you’ll be seeing a lot more of their faces around here. Some of the images from their session have become my favorites and I plan to use them in my new marketing materials.

Mom, I know you’ve been waiting so patiently for this sneak peek, so without further ado…your gorgeous daughters.Blog5Blog3Blog4Blog1

let them eat cake | sacramento baby photographer

The biggest compliment to me is when a client comes back to take more images of their child. I absolutely love when I see a familiar name in my inbox requesting a future session. It makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside. That they liked their pictures so much they chose me again as their photographer. What an honor!

I was so excited to see {J} for his one year session this weekend. Last time I photographed {J} he was just four months old–and adorable at that! You’ll recognize him up in my header with those stunning baby blues. Well, he’s even cuter at one year (if that’s possible!) and we had such a great time yesterday at our shoot. Unfortunately the weather was horrendous and we had to stay indoors, but it worked out perfectly for our cake smash session. One year olds + cake = an adorable mess!Blog2Blog1Blog4Mom–thank you so much for choosing me to capture {J’s} one year images. I had a great time and hope you love your sneak peek! I’ll let you know as soon as your full gallery is ready!
