The McMath Family - Southern California Family Photography

We did this session along with David's sister's family. Their little guy was so stinkin' cute but oh so fascinated in Grandpa's dog that came along for the shoot. I still think we got some really great shots though. Thanks guys!










Lots of lovin' from the cousins













This is the "I'm done with this" face...which of course we had to photograph because even grumpy he still is so cute!



And again, I can't decide if I like this one better in black and white...



Or in "lux" but either way, isn't he just so darling?!

Adriano Family - High Desert Family Photography

It's been a few years since I last photographed this sweet family so it's a real treat for me to be able to see how they've grown up!









Sister "secrets" always get a good giggle!





Their cute little cousin came along for his own http://jenolynchristensenphotography.blogspot.com/2010/12/mcmath-family-southern-california.html so of course, we had to do some all together!









Little "J" has grown up so much! A far cry from the little guy who we had to be so sneaky about taking pictures 2 years ago. This time he picked this tree out all on his own and smiled away for me. So cool!

Gavin - The best 3 week old baby EVER!!!

It's one of those general rules for newborn photography that you'll get the best results with babies who are less than 2 weeks old - 6 to 10 days being the best. So, when Lauren asked me to do pictures of her little guy, Gavin, who would be 3 weeks old, I was a little nervous that we wouldn't get too many shots of him asleep. This is definitely one of those times I was 100% wrong and happy to admit it! Gavin was amazing! A beautiful little boy and a darling family. Thank you guys!





The angel pin belonged to Gavin's Grandma who passed away before he was born.

Luter Family - High Desert Family Photographer

I realized when I was doing this editing, that we've been doing a lot of black background pictures this season. Although I love shooting outdoors with families, I have really grown to love the crispness of a black background. Of course it helps when you have photogenic subjects to shoot! This of course, is a perfect segue to this wonderful family. I went to Janet and Michael's wedding which was the year before Jason and I were married and ironically Janet knew Jason long before I did. We were delighted to realize that moving to Hesperia would bring us closer to their sweet family. This session was a lot of fun especially when Janet saved me by having a spare battery that fit my camera. Thank you Janet!! Their girls are just gorgeous and in complete honesty, I did not photoshop their AMAZINGLY stunning eyes!! They are really that beautiful! Thank you guys!!

Leah

Here's part 2 of Leah's first birthday shoot. She is just SO darling. I was very nearly tempted to take a picture of her mommy doing her crazy cow dance, but she made me promise. Ha!

















I couldn't resit posting this last one Melonnie!!
