My good friends Maria and Francisco are expecting their first child, Baby Miles! I was so excited to learn of their pregnancy and to be the one who captures it! Maria looked stunning in her red gown. I loved the pop of color against the blues of the ocean. I can't wait to meet this little guy, Congrats!

Jordan, Sarah, and Carson were so much to photograph. I just couldn't get over how cute Carson and his big ol dimples were! He didn't really want any photos by himself, but we managed to get a few with him and all of the sticks he was collecting. :) So nice seeing everyone again and Happy Holidays!

It's so amazing to watch my brother Erik, and his family grow! This Thanksgiving I made the trip back to Michigan and captured my brother, sister-in-law, niece and soon to be nephew's family session. It was a little chilly but we managed to get some great photos at our favorite childhood cider mill. My niece Jovie was such a little ham, and I just couldn't get enough of that sweet face! I can't wait to meet baby "Prince Erik Xavier" (what my niece calls the little bun in the oven :) ) next March! Congrats and Love you!

We managed to get ahead of the rain on Sunday to photograph this super cute family of 5! We loved the little crowns the girls brought, and not to mention little Alex's adorable Santa outfit at the end of the shoot!

The Gooding family was such a treat to photograph! We had a beautiful California morning, and the sun was shining through the trees perfectly. I love how Brittany brought along her parents to help keep the kids attention, and to snag a few photos with them as well. Go Greenbay ;) !

Let's talk about how awesomely styled this family is! Michele does such a great job of putting a theme together every year for her family portraits. This year it was the fun, carnival vibe of the Santa Monica Pier. It was really foggy that day, but it made for some killer shots! Very excited to share this one with everyone. Enjoy!
