Angela’s Maternity ~ Redlands California ~ Maternity Photography

I had the pleasure of taking some maternity pictures of the beautiful Angela. She is due ANY second & was quite the sport by coming out for pictures! She has an absolutely beautiful baby bump & I can’t wait to meet her little girl when she is born 🙂 I haven’t gone through all of the pics but I really liked these two thus far 🙂

Sleeping 8 Month Baby ~ Redlands, Ca ~ Infant Photographer

Ashlynn Gracie turned 8 months old on the 24th! I can’t believe how much my sweetheart has grown. I wanted to get a sweet sleeping baby picture of her like I was able too when she was a newborn 🙂 Here is the end result in both color and black and white because I just couldn’t decide which I liked better. The awesome blanket was made by my wonderful Aunt 🙂

Modelriffic ~ Claremont, California ~ Child Photography

I got to meet up with a fellow cloth diaperer, Yolanda, and her beautiful family. We headed over to Bridges Auditorium in Claremont for her session. Her kids are GORGEOUS! Totally Modelriffic! Yeah that’s right, I made up a word to describe how cute these two are!

Rain ~ Highland, California ~ Child Photographer

I am absolutely adoring all this rainy weather =o) I think I need to live somewhere like Seattle just so that I can be around the rain.

I especially LOVE the fact that my daughter shares the same enthusiasm for rain 🙂

Like Taking Candy from a Big Sister ~ Redlands, California ~ Child Photographer

I love my girls. They bring me so much joy! I recently found heart shaped lollipops (or candypops as Rory calls them) at Target. I thought it would be fun to do a little shoot with my girls. Everything was going smoothly until I decided to take pictures of them together. Two little girls and one candypop is sure to cause a meltdown & of course my oldest is such a drama queen that it is just too funny not to share an out-take from the session 🙂

Ashlynn gets it and Rory melts down lol (totally blurry but oh-so funny)

Yumm! Taste that plastic wrapper!

Rory’s crocodile tears cleared up the second she got the lollipop back :p

My favorite pic of Rory in a LONG time. I plan on getting this printed and putting it in her room or in my studio 🙂

Juicy Gossip ~ Redlands, California ~ Child Photography

For those of you that don’t know, I have 3 little ones. My son has a serious case of PCS (photographer’s child syndrome). I often joke with clients that I could break my leg and if I am holding my camera the kid won’t look haha. He does NOT like his picture being taken so it is very rare that i am able to get any decent pics of him and by far almost impossible to get pictures of him WITH one of his sisters. Today I managed to do just that! For some reason he did much better taking pics in my studio when Rory was there to ‘boss’ him around. It was quite cute all of the ‘secrets’ she was telling him. It looked like she had some juicy gossip.

Aww they do love each other 🙂
KISS!

Squished Baby ~ Highland, California ~ Infant Photographer

Ashlynn Gracie turned 7 months old on Christmas Eve. Seeing as we were in Texas I wasn’t able to get the studio shots that I wanted. Well today seemed like just as good a day as any to try. Lynn was in a GREAT mood and her recent little bottom rash cleared up so I figured let’s do bare bum shots 🙂 Then of course I had to squish her in THE cup. Which she thought was pretty hilarious 🙂

I got an Organizer for Christmas

Yes it is true, I am the most UN-organized person on earth. When my husband asked me what I wanted for Christmas, I immediately said a million dollars and a maid. Well that was a bit un-realistic so instead I asked for an Organizer shelving unit 🙂 I LOVE it!!! I think it makes my studio look SO much less cluttered! I know that I really haven’t shared pics of my studio so here it is 🙂 In all its glory, complete with captions :p My Studio

Next on my agenda is to hang up some pictures and get a new ‘real’ floor 🙂

I HATE Mashed Potatoes ~ Highland, California ~ Family Photography

I know I am probably one of the ONLY Americans who HATE potatoes. Not only do I hate potatoes, mashed potatoes are by far the worst. Even the smell of them make my gag reflex start working. If I walk into a house making mashed potatoes and I haven’t prepared myself for the horrid smell you can easily find me running for the door. . . the bathroom door *GAG*. When I was a child I looked forward to the day when I would NEVER EVER have to be around mashed potatoes again. Well it would be JUST my luck that Logan, my 2 year old, is just as finicky of an eater as I was, and one of the ONLY things he will eat is potatoes! So I broke down and bought a 5 pound bag of mashed potatoes at the store yesterday. I figure that him eating potatoes HAS to be better then him ONLY eating goldfish crackers & scrambled eggs. So I am learning how to cook and mash up nasty disgusting potatoes. It’s ok though part of my New Years resolution is to have my family eat better. So tonight’s menu consisted of ‘mashed potatoes’, rice, marinated chicken, corn and green peas. More work than usual went into dinner & my husband LOVED it. I put a bit of everything on Rory and Logan’s plates. Rory ate up the potatoes, rice corn and a few peas. Logan only ate the potatoes. *sigh* I HATE mashed potatoes!
