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!
Introducing Some Great Couple Shots
Couples always offer such a varing experience in how I photograph. From the couples who just just found each other to those who have spent many moments together there is something magical about capturing the emotions related to them – to who they are when they touch!
Whether I get to snap a quick shot while the kids are running around or I have a session with just the couple tehmselves there is always a moment where you can watch the connection and lucky enough I can see the beauty through my lens!
Love, smiles, sparks, whatever I can capture, I am honored. Another chance that so often isn’t taken but should be so cherished. Take a moment, look eachother in the eyes; smile, laugh, or notice something new but either way enjoy it for the moment that it is!
