Rob and Andrea, The Family

March 13, 2014memoriesbytasha Leave a comment

So when Andrea contacted me about doing their first family photo I was super excited! There new adventure is a bit reminiscent of my family’s journey.

To say the boys in this family were simply here because they were told to arrive was an understatement but before too long they would be right in there with new posing ideas and fun pictures!

Making time to capture the ❤ that has brought this family together is always so important. It is easy when we are raising kids to forget to stop and look at one another for a moment! As you can see these two enjoyed that moment to the fullest, I couldn’t get them to now smile at each other!

It is also a great way to torture our children 🙂

This picture makes me smile! I can’t remember what these guys were doing but I love the fact that they are all laughing so hard and it shows! This woman right here smiled and laughed in every picture. What an amazing way to walk through life it was a pleasure to work with Andrea and her family!

Hailee’s Dance Party

October 21, 2013memoriesbytasha Leave a comment

Of course so much fun goes into silly props and pictures but add a room full of 9 year old girls, celebrating a birthday at a dance party and you have the combination for GREAT photos and tons of FUN! I have worked with the Jenkins family bunches so of course I was super excited when they asked me to help commemorate this birthday!One of the best things about this age; they are still so comfortable with who they are and they enjoy just having fun together. The girls were all having a blast, dancing, dressing up and tumbling; they also found lots of new looks to share with the camera!

Alexa’s 15!

September 1, 2013memoriesbytasha Leave a comment

Alexa turned 15 in August so when her mom asked if we could do a photo shoot I was excited. I of course believe everyone should do photo shoots for their birthdays :0). We spent some time in the Joshua Tree Monument with the massive rock formations and a beautiful young lady ; then we traveled to a local location with tons of color and texture. The glitter idea, that was Alexa’s but I have every intention of using it again because it came out gorgeous.

Pierce Family

August 30, 2013August 30, 2013memoriesbytasha Leave a comment

The Pierce family is having an adventurous year; they are about to move to another country on military orders but were blessed with their second baby girl before the big move so, I was lucky enough to get the chance to photograph them for a second time before they leave. Daughter #1 and I had a great time at the maternity shoot so nothing was different this time. She is full of energy and smiles; so much fun to chase after and photograph. Little Miss #2 so sweet and adorable was only a week old when we had our photo shoot. And must we not forget to include the very first baby in this family; their fur baby who is great with the girls and was so good about us posing her in the pictures too. Thank you Pierce Family for once again choosing Memories by Tasha Photography and good luck on this new chapter.

Sprawka Family Session

August 30, 2013August 30, 2013memoriesbytasha Leave a comment

When two people get married families multiply well meet the Sprawkas, they are part of our multiplication when my mom and Haley’s dad got married in April. I was very excited to get to spend some time hanging out in a true lifestyle session with this family. The boys got up in the morning, they were bribed with a frozen yogurt date if they behaved, and then they picked out their personality filled outfits for the photo shoot. The fun thing about lifestyle photography is that the intention is to capture a family, right where they are in that time – their dynamics, their relationships, their personalities and this session did just that. There are so many fun, chaotic, and loving images that came out of our time together that capture the Sprawka family – who they are, right now. I can’t wait; we already have a cake smash planned for November, be on the look out.

This family has become so dear to my heart! Bettina and I met each other through work but she has become a dear friend and I have felt so blessed to capture moment after moment of this family’s journey. This session was the first that we were able to have Angie, the off at college daughter so we have a complete family picture. The Gehris family is getting ready to welcome another addition so I am very excited to do a gender announcement with them next week, look out for the BIG announcement!

Etherington Family Session

While this family is new to Twentynine Palms as their zip code they have been vacationing in the monument for some time so they were excited to shoot a photo session in Indian Cove. These fun kids were ready to climb every rock and jump from spot to spot! Even mom, baby bump and all was fearless in ensuring we used the scenery to it’s fullest extent. I am so glad they picked me to start off their new journey and to celebrate the soon to be addition to their growing family. Welcome to the desert Etherington Family!

Emma turns One!

Cake Smash sessions are always fun and so unique! Emma’s was no different, she isn’t quite one yet so this was her first cake smash and she went for it! We had a nice session in the Joshua Tree National Monument, we snuck in a mini family session and then Emma was dressed for her 4th of July birthday for a cake smash.

Twentynine Palms Photographer – Welcome to the world baby Liam

June 10, 2013memoriesbytasha Leave a comment

I had the pleasure of photographing the Murray’s for their engagement session a few years ago and now they are welcoming another member of their family, baby Liam! As usual baby’s are awake when we want them asleep and asleep when we are trying to keep them awake but without some work these images wouldn’t hold all the personality of this little guy. The blue eyes on this little man match his older sister’s and are bound to add to his handsomeness, watch out girls he is going to be a charmer :)!

Twentynine Palms Photographer – Pierce Family Maternity Session

June 10, 2013memoriesbytasha Leave a comment

What a fun and energetic session. This two year old kept us moving every second of our time together; up, down, forward, backward, and rolling on the ground. Everyone in this family has these amazing blue eyes and I am so excited that we were able to capture them in these images. This was a maternity session that included a two year old session, lots of bubbles blown and I think we captured everything mom and dad were looking for. The Pierce family will be welcoming an addition soon and I can’t wait to meet her!

PS There is nothing better than the hugs of a two year old who had fun while you were chasing her through the grass with the camera.
