The Contreras Family

So many little cuties turning one!  Olivia is turning one this week!  She was so much fun.  She has this awesome laugh/cry.  I couldn’t really tell if she was happy or sad so I just kept shooting until I saw tears :)

Some of you wedding photographers will recognize the mom from this session.  This is Abbie who is a coordinator at the Balboa Bay Club and Resort.  She’s so great to work with!

Here are a few favorites from the session and the slideshow!

PS  Do you like the new blog design?  The awesome Emily from June Lily worked her magic and made my blog beautiful!  Thanks, Emily!

Baby Irene

I don’t think I’ve ever seen a baby girl look as much like her Daddy as little Irene.  She’s just the cutest and slept through almost our entire session.  When they told me she was over 9 pounds when she was born I didn’t believe them.  She looked so small to me.  However, when I started posing her in my props I could see she was bigger than most newborns I shoot.  It’s all in her length!  She’s going to be a tall girl!  And a smart one!  Both mom and dad are doctors who did their undergrads at Stanford!  I’m always so intimidated by graduates of Stanford.  However, not only were they super smart but also very nice and a lot of fun to get to know.

Here are a few of my favorites!

Lilly & Annalise

I always wished I had a sister.  Instead, I got a brother who I sometimes would dress up like a girl and every once in a while he would indulge me and play school or house.

I love capturing the love between sisters.  Even at just 1 and 3 1/2, Lilly and Annalise have such a special bond.  Lilly wants to do everything Annalise does and Annalise is such a great big sister.  1 and 3 1/2 can be daunting ages to shoot, but these little girls made it so easy… and so much fun!

Their mom, Monick, is the owner of Lillybug Lane and created all their cute hairpieces.  Check out her Etsy shop and grab some for your little girls!  I know my little girl is going to be so super stylish thanks to Monick’s super cute gifts!  Thanks, Monick!

Here’s the slideshow!
