Los Angeles Vacation-{Los Angeles Family Portrait Photographer}

I met the B family on Sunday for a fun family portrait session at Leo Carrillo State Beach (have you noticed I love to shoot at this beach??!!). They were on vacation from Washington state and gave me a call to have their family portraits taken while they were having some fun in the sun.

If you are planning a trip to Southern California, think about having some fun family portraits taken to document your family’s time together while everyone is relaxed and having fun!

 

 

 

 

 

 

hope you had a safe trip home B family, it was great meeting you!

Family Beach Portraits-{Los Angeles Photgrapher}

I’ve been a bit behind on posting images from my latest shoots, so sorry!

Here are a a few images from a couple of family shoots I had at beautiful Will Rogers State Beach.

The G family from Santa Monica had lots of fun during the shoot, and we ended up running through the surf, what a great way to end a fun session!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

and the R family who were celebrated Mom’s homecoming from Iraq with a family portrait shoot on the beach

 

 

 

the kids were having so much fun, I could barely keep them out of the water, so when we got the shots we wanted, we let the boys run wild through the surf!

The V Family Maternity Portraits- {Marina Del Rey Maternity Portrait Photography}

Met up with the V family in Marina Del Rey at a great little cove to take some Maternity/Family Portraits before Baby B makes his appearance!

K family-Los Angeles Portrait Photographer

I have photographed part of the family once before-you may recognize the kids from some of the Christmas cards in some earlier posts.

This time, it was the whole family; Grandma, Grandpa, cousins, aunts and uncles too!

They were such a great group of people to photograph, what a great family to start the New Year!

The B Kids at Conejo Creek Park {Thousand Oaks Kids Photography}

I met up with the B kids yesterday at my new favorite spot at the Conejo Creek Park in Thousand Oaks.

I have driven past this little spot on my way to the larger part of the park, and yesterday we decided to give it a shot, and I love love love what we got! There is a little creek that flows around the park, and it’s filled with ducks. It is so pretty there!

These kids were so well behaved and posed for me like little pros! 

Check them out, and I think you’ll agree, these little ones are cute! I love the outfits!

Family Portraits at the Beach-{Santa Monica photographer}

I met Carol and family last weekend at the beach in Santa Monica. It was not the most ideal day for portraits, it was so foggy; I stood in front of the *famous* Santa Monica Pier and I could barely see the Ferris Wheel!

Even though it was foggy, I think we had a great time and got some great shots!
