My sister in law is visiting from Colorado with her 9 week old baby C this month. We are so excited to get to meet this sweet baby girl. She is such a happy baby. She is the first girl on both sides of her family and has 9 boy cousins!

    What a cute niece you have! I also HAVE to make a comment on your new header… I think that’s the most beautiful child I’ve ever seen (of course that position is tied!)

    What a cute baby!

Happy Birthday!

April 4, 2008

Wow, I can hardly believe this little sweetie is one year old. I had the honor of being present with her mommy and daddy during labor and delivery. One of these days I’ll have to share some of her first photographs!

These are from her birthday party. Daddy returned from Iraq just in time to celebrate with his wife and special girl. PTL

She really got “into” her cupcake! So cute!

April 4, 2008

Happy April! We are having so much fun playing outdoors these days! The weather here in San Diego has been so beautiful lately.

I have been busy with sessions and school and family. I can’t believe I never got around to posting in March. I’m hoping to share more often! Here are a few of “my baby J!” I know, he’s not such a baby, is he? My “baby” is 18 months old now!

February 1, 2008

that I won a contest with this image?! hehehe!

Kylie Banks of Phaunt Actions is always doing fun and crazy stuff on her blog and this time I decided to join in on the craziness…lol! It was a photo scavenger hunt for something scary, favorite breakfast food, a bottle of water, a pair of shoes, and toilet paper wrapped around a living being’s head! The only catch was that all the items needed to be in one photo!

  1. Melissa Koehler posted the following on February 2, 2008 at 7:04 pm.

    That is so cool! Congrats. What did you win?

First newborn of the year…

January 29, 2008

Well, this little fellow is Baby Boy T. He was born on New Year’s Day! Isn’t that neat-o? This little guy is a bit special to me, as I had the privilege of witnessing his arrival. (His mama is also a dear friend of mine!) Hope you like them, my friend!

    They’re beautiful! Thank you so much! You take such nice pictures, you must have a really nice camera ;-)

  4. Melissa Koehler posted the following on January 31, 2008 at 9:59 am.

    I was hoping the camera comment was a joke :)

    What beautiful shots you got! I love the last one with his feet

Double the fun!

January 27, 2008

Now, you can’t tell me that these babies aren’t the cutest! They are just 8 weeks old, but were born 8 weeks prematurely, so they are tiny!

This is my first set of twins, and I must say it was trickier than I thought it’d be! I did this session with my photog buddy Tara and as soon as we’d get the first baby asleep, the second would wake up! I think we got some good shots despite the babies’ antics! Enjoy!




  1. AHS Photography posted the following on April 30, 2008 at 12:59 pm.

    Love the first shot! What an awesome idea!

Sweet Baby A…

January 24, 2008

Boy this has been a busy baby season. I am so behind on posting here but I’m really going to try harder to stay on top of things! Thank you for being patient with me as I proof your sessions. I am experiencing the growing pains that come with having a new photography business.

So anyways! Here is a sneak peak, in a storyboard, for this beautiful family I got to photograph today! Baby A was a gem. She was alert and awake when she got here and then fell asleep for some sweet sleepy shots as well. I was so happy to see you again, Josh and Janelle. Thank you for sharing your sweet girl with me for the morning! She is a doll! I will email you with a password when I have your proofs ready to view!

I had to come back and add a favorite!

    Cristina! All your shots are great. You are definately right brained…very artsy. Music and photography. I’ll be back.
