Sarah contacted me to do a family session while she was home visiting her family in Twentynine Palms, we didn’t realize that we actually knew eachother until we showed up at the session. This beautiful new family was a pleasure to photograph. Isn’t this little one too cute in her zebra pants?
There is so much said when a child smiles with delight while they are playing with their parents. These are the moments that I love to capture!

Twentynine Palms Photographer visits Oceanside,CA – Baby S turns ONE!
I have been so lucky to watch this family through out this last year! Our journey toghether began while Baby S was still in momma’s belly. They have allowed me to chronicle the first year through many changes for them as a family. I am honestly a little sad that it is over.
Baby S was so much fun on the beach. He explored the sand and water, he never stopped moving. You may notice for most of my one year old sessions we always have lots of action shots!
Since the Gehris family recieved orders to Camp Pendleton I knew I wanted this shot and I am so glad it turned out even better than I could have hoped.
Twentynine Palms Photographer – Baby G’s Cake Smash
So many gorgeous images from our session in the park. This little cutie literally had me running in cirlcles; everytime I thought my camera was pointed in the right direction we switched our forward motion! So baby G brought the cuteness and some adventure, he did not smash his cake on his actual birthday but at our session he must new what to expect because he dug right in. During clean up the park sprinklers came on to assist. Thankfully mom and the little guy were good sports. 
These smiles were amazing and brought out the sight of his big brother! He was in awe of his sibling!
Big sister turned on some music and the dancing began. Baby G was very excited!
Twentynine Palms Photographer visits North Carolina – Kalnicki Family
I could write a thousand words to describe how I feel about this family. After 5 years I was able to visit my dear friend Barbara and her family in Jacksonville. What a blessing this trip was for me! Her beautiful family and I has fun adventuring around this park for family pictures and the girls and I had a couple impromptu sessions that yielded some gorgeous shots! I love you Barbara!!
Twentynine Palms Maternity Photographer – It’s a Girl!
Congratulations to the Davila family. Thank you for letting me photograph this moment in time yesterday. A super fun session with a couple of excited parents to be. They both did a great job keeping the secret until we finished the mini session and got some pictures rady for Facebook. Looking forward to meeting baby girl Davila. Love these shots with a vintage overlay, it adds a great color hue to the images.
It’s a baby! – Twentynine Palms Maternity Photographer
Yesterday I was honored to share in the announcement of new Baby Jenkins! It was so hard to keep the secret. Anna was so excited to share so we got these pictures done, edited, and posted quickly so they could make their big announcement! 
Anna brought along her BFF, who is also expecting a new little one! She was our session artist and took care of the chalkboard sign. 
These two childhood friends are very excited to be bringing the next generation of friendships into the world in the same year, 2013 will be an exciting new adventure for both of them! 
I can’t wait to meet baby Jenkins!
Shane’s 10 months Session – Oceanside Family Photographer
I have had the honor of photographing this little guy since he was in his momma’s tummy. The first time I met him was only hours after he was born. Watching him and photographing him for the past 10 months has allowed me the opportunity to capture his first year in forever moments. Next stop a “cake smash” for his ONE year photos! 
His mom and I are hoping to create his story through these images, A Year in his Life. So many changes have already happened over the past ten months!
Yesterday we spent our time playing and capturing this little guys personality which is BIG! He is such a happy baby that he was all over the place and giggling the whole time. This picture with Bettina ready to him is one of the few we captured without him on the move. 
Look at these smiles and these eyes, I think his parents are in trouble because the could melt a heart that’s for sure!
Daddy time in this house is so cherished as he just got home after being deployed and is now the toy for his little mister. Shane got up there on dad’s shoulders and immediatly began to giggle and bounce, it was a classic first that we were lucky enough to capture on film.
More to come with this Year in the Life baby! Keep your eyes open for the great One Year Old session we have planned!
Jayden turns ONE!
This is a year in the life of baby Jayden. Such an awesome experience to watch him grow and go from mommy’s tummy to walking! Here is just a peek at all the photos we took over the last year beginning with Sara’s maternity session!
Amazing what a difference only a few months makes when everything they do is new and exciting! 
And Jayden turns ONE! So much fun. I think we laughed the entire session as Jayden is full of personality and was a blast to watch while he dug into his cake. 
This family was my first maternity session, my first newborn session, and my first cake smash. I can say we had a lot of fun and did some learning along the way. I can’t believe Jayden is ONE! But here is his first year through my lens. Thank you Sara and James for inviting me in to this special and dynamic time in your life.
