Holiday Portraits 2009 – I’m finished!

O.K. I did so many of these I didn’t even have time to do my own!  I didn’t blog all of them but here are some fun ones.  Maybe, I’ll do a nice Valentine’s Day card!!!!

Baby Krishan – I really loved this guy.  He reminded me so much of Tess when she was 2 weeks old!  Amazing how they have personalities this young!  So thrilled to have met Shruthi and Raj.  I didn’t get a chance to blog her prego shoot (because I’m the worst blogger in the world) but they are just SUCH lovely people.

I photographed Guy and Jennifer’s wedding back in 2007 and it was so awesome to catch up.  And now meet Samantha….such an adorable and happy 1 year old.

I got the photograph the beautiful Sauer family last year and I can’t believe how much they have grown!  Always great one’s for my website!

You probably saw Lisa’s pregnancy photos from a few months ago.  Now welcome baby Grant!  This guys was an exceptionally good newborn model!

I photographed Kelly and Mark’s wedding back in 2006 and now welcome baby Luca!  6 months and all smiles.  I can’t believe he is no such a great sleeping schedule.  Tess still doesn’t have one.  Oy!

The Morph family was referred to me by the Parris family….They were so sweet and I just love that shot of Camden in the basket.  Yay for sleeping newborns!

I photographed Rachel and Todd’s wedding back in 2008 and now here is Baby Madaline!  Isn’t she gorgeous?  And so is mommy!

Can I just tell you how much I love photographing dogs lately.  Since I can’t have one (Jimmy is deathly allergic) I live vicariously.  Mark and Kelly were referred to me by Karen and Craig whose wedding I photographed back in 2008.  They were so cool and their dog cooper is amazing.  What a fun shoot!

Well, you’ve seen Samantha on my blog for years.  What an amazing young lady she has grown into.  Too bad I couldn’t see my old friend Clyde but lot’s of fun gabbing with her mom Sharon.

Marcy and Mark are on my blog all the time.  Look at Annie, how much she has grown.  Zee is too cute!  So psyched to photograph Marcy’s brother’s wedding this year.

I photographed Michelle and Ed’s wedding back in 2006 (wow!) and photographed Thomas when he was 3 months old. Now Michelle is expecting another girl. Congratulations!

Devon and Liam are the best subjects! So obedient! They do exactly what you tell them. Rebecca and Luan – what are you doing as parents? They are amazing

Jocelyn and Matt’s Wedding – The Langham Hotel, Pasadena, CA

I had a blast with Jocelyn and Matt at their engagement shoot and an even better time photographing their wedding.  Jocelyn was cool as a cucumber sipping her glass of champagne from a straw (too cute) and she had the most wonderful and helpful maid of honor, Alex. Matt is just so sweet and his groomsmen and brothers were really fun.   This was actually the first time I had photographed at the New Langham Hotel, as I was very familiar when it was the Ritz Carlton and I loved it.  The grounds always feel very “Regal to me”….so I have fun with the formal side of the venue….Jocelyn and Matt can really party though.  I mean, they got DOWN!

Baby Zara

Sara Muhammed is by far my all time best client!  She talks about me on The Knot.com, she comments on my blog all the time and I INSISTED that she get a free shoot when she was pregnant.  Unfortunately, we couldn’t do the prego shoot as she was put on bed rest but we rocked the newborn shoot regardless.  Sara was my most expressive bride ever…. and her daughter is the same way.  I also had a great time chatting with them at our early dinner.  Sorry I had to split so fast.  Daddy daycare was waiting for me!
