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.

Run for the Warriors 5K in San Diego, CA

August 15, 2013August 15, 2013memoriesbytasha Leave a comment

I’ve said it before, photography has brought so many things into my life; so many blessings. Hope For The Warriors is a charity that started providing services to our injured service members as they came home forever changed by their time serving. Just with any other charity they began slowly but over the years they have expanded their opportunity to serve by offering programs for service members, family members, want to expand your knowledge of adventure – they cover that too through offering excursions where modifications are made to support handicapped participants, the list goes on and on. I was given the opportunity to photograph one of their fundraising activities. This was the first year visiting the west coast for a Run for the Warriors 5k in San Diego. This 5k was ran or walked along the embarcadero in gorgeous conditions and I couldn’t have felt more blessed than to have participated, thank you for all you do! I look forward to seeing you all again next year!

Etherington Family Session

August 1, 2013August 1, 2013memoriesbytasha Leave a comment

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 – Ben and Ashley

June 17, 2013memoriesbytasha Leave a comment

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

June 11, 2013memoriesbytasha Leave a comment

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 – 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.

Twentynine Palms Photographer – Jenica’s 6

June 2, 2013June 2, 2013memoriesbytasha Leave a comment

This beautiful little 6 year old is Jenica, not only does she capture my heart when she is in front of my camera but often in my personal life. I have been blessed to know her since she was a baby and I am so excited to watch her as she grows into a young lady. One of the bonuses to photographing friends is that you often get some goofy outtakes just like a few of these in this blog. Jenica leave a trail of beaming smile everywhere she goes, her personality and smile are one of a kind. Enjoy and be on the lookout for another Silvas on the blog; her big brother is graduating from high school this year!

Twentynine Palms Photographer – Dooley Family Session

May 27, 2013May 27, 2013memoriesbytasha Leave a comment

This family hasn’t had their pictures done in a bit so we set out to the Joshua Tree National Monument to celebrate some life changes and just have some fun. Upon arrival I asked the kids if they were excited to get their pictures taken and to my surprise they both eagerly said yes; not sure what mom bribed them with but it sure did get us started on the right foot! We climbed, we ducked and we photographed, this beautiful family is full of personality and I am thankful to have met them and photographed them. Thank you again!
