Sometimes I really need to pinch myself to believe that I get to photograph the most amazing people and it’s my J-O-B!

I was so lucky to spend one HOT July afternoon with a new friend, Sharon. It was the first time she had done anything like this, but she handled it like a total pro! We wandered around the arts district in Downtown Los Angeles and found some absolutely fantastic new locations to shoot! I love all the color and grafitti that was all over the place- what a haven for creative energy!

Thank you to Sharon for trusting me to make you feel comfortable and look beautiful! Hope you love this little preview of your portraits! 

I think it’s a woman’s curve and contour that makes them so incredibly beautiful. The soft edge of a woman’s smile is what makes them so lovely; the sparkle in their eyes is what makes them so gorgeous.

I was able to capture the magic of Esther’s femininity one afternoon during my first boudoir session. It’s always nice to have an opportunity to photograph something out of the ordinary. For me, boudoir photography is just that. I’m mostly a portrait photographer– engagement portraits, weddings, family, etc. but when I had the opportunity to photograph such a beautiful girl, I jumped at the chance. 

Here is a sneak preview of the boudoir session I did with Esther. We can’t show you all the images (for decency’s sake) but here are a few great ones I absolutely loved. 

I can’t wait to do more boudoir sessions– so let me know if you are interested in something like it. 

Happy Monday!

Creativity is life. I hope you agree. 

I had the opportunity to do a small workshop with actors and models, just for fun. Just some stylists, makeup artists and designers getting together to collaborate– I was there to document their efforts. 

Here I present to you a sneak peek of two of the models, Caitlin and Jack who are absolutely gorgeous together. We had a phenomenal time together, laughing, joking and just plain having fun. 

I really love this one of caitlin…

I believe that children are God’s way of letting us know that the future is bright. This little girl is living proof that the future is going to be amazing! Karena and I had absolutely fantastic time together running and jumping and rolling down hills at Occidental College. She is the most articulate and intelligent four year old that I have EVER met- she’s lively and vibrant and just an absolute pleasure to photograph.

Thank you Karena for showing me how amazing it is to be four years old. I will never forget our morning together. You have reminded me how fun it is to be silly and carefree. I will never, ever underestimate the importance of having fun. Thank you for giving me that gift.

I think it’s such a fantastic keepsake of a wonderful time in a child’s life.  

I absolutely love the classic portrait feel of this image… don’t you?
