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.

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! Oceanside Baby Photography-10Oceanside Baby Photography-12His 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!Oceanside Baby Photography-11Yesterday 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.                                Oceanside Baby Photography-7Oceanside Baby Photography-8Oceanside Baby Photography-1                    Oceanside Baby Photography-9          Look at these smiles and these eyes, I think his parents are in trouble because the could melt a heart that’s for sure!

Twentynine Palms Wildcats – Boys Soccer vs Desert Mirage

Twentynine Palms Boys Soccer Photographs-27 My photography began with my own kids and all these boys that have played sports with my son for many years!  I love every opportunity to get out and take action shots of these kids!

They always play with their hearts on their sleeves!  Each of them finding thier own place amoung this team.  These boys have had some great coaches through the years but have not had te consistency that is paramount to great teams, they have overcome and made this their team.  As my own son’s time comes to an end this season I look forward to continuing to watch this team grow! Twentynine Palms Boys Soccer Photographs-3 Twentynine Palms Boys Soccer Photographs-2
