This is the Bustamante Family! When mom contacted me about a family session she was excited to capture her growing family as they were and in their backyard where they are busy making memories! This fun little ship that dad built is where they adventure and climb.
They recently added one more member to the family to complete their threesome of itty bittys!
Dad spends his days as a Marine so it was super important that we captured that piece of who this family is so used new baby Bustamante to display this cover beautifully.
Our session was full of smiles, gummies, fun and of course bubbles 🙂
I don’t remember what exactly happened here but I am pretty sure it had something to do with the magic gummies that kept this young guy motivated during our session.
Thank you Bustamante family for choosing Memories by Tasha Photography to capture this time in your life! If you are interested in memorializing your family in time please contact me!
Twentynine Palms Couples Photographer
Rob and Andrea, The Family
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!
Segura Family Maternity Session in Indian Cove
Love, friendship, marriage, and family. What an awesome story to tell with images to your anticipated little one. Leticia contacted me about doing a maternity session and she was super excited to capture the joy, the excitement and the love that is contained within their relationship and awaiting their little baby boy bundle.
We adventured around the Indian Cove campground where smiles, laughter, and touching moments were a plenty. I love my job!!
There is always something awesome about being with people when they just enjoy smiling; the infectous smile of this momma to be was so much fun to look at over and over, picture after picture because they were just enjoying being together. That is where forever stories begin and shortly they will share that with one more!

Adela and Juniors Engagement Session
When I met Adela to discuss her upcoming wedding day and the photography I knew I had met a genuine person. Her smile lights up a room and when I met her fiancé Junior I saw that they both had amazing smiles, our engagement session in San Diego was full of laughs. As we walked around the Embarcadero, changing scenery for different backdrops one thing was obvious; these two enjoy each other and are excited for the future that’s only around the corner. Yesterday I photographed the big day, what an amazing experience as a photographer and someone in awe of all the culture and customs their families share. Be on the lookout for more about Adela and Junior as we follow them onto their wedding day!
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!
Twentynine Palms Photographer – Engagement Sessions – Megan & Niko
This session was full of laughter and endearing moments between this soon to be wedded couple. There is nothing more satisfying for this photographer than to capture raw emotion. I felt the love between these two with each image I edited and the bonus was in the way they smiled and made each other laugh. Congratulations Megan and Niko, I can’t wait to photograph your very special day.
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 – Ben and Ashley
My sessions always touch my heart and make me feel blessed to capture some moment in time but when I get to photograph my nephew and his girlfriend as they begin a new chapter my heart overflows! Ben and Ashley are on a new adventure; they are moving away from California. My hopes and wishes for them are of course grand and what a better way to decorate a new residence than with some new couple’s photos!
Twentynine Palms Photographer – The Hemmingers say good-bye to 29
During a busy crazy day I left my step stool at Knotts Sky Park, a photographer shooting her own session that day was nice enough to pick it up for me, find me on the internet and call me so I could come get it! So awesome to find good people who will go out of their way to be nice; well her husband is getting out of the Marine Corps this week so what better gift than to do a session with them before they leave. I was a little nervous about how things would go photographing someone else who feels the same passion I do for photography but oh my did we have fun!! What a great couple and what a bunch of great images. The Hemmingers are leaving for new adventures and I wish them all the luck, I am so glad I met them and was able to capture one last peek of here for them.
Twentynine Palms Photographer – Pierce Family Maternity Session
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.
