Benedict Family

Something about a field is so romantic and intimate to me. The open space + the sun+ nature= LOVE. Add a funky fun family and a couple of fun funky chairs and you get pure magic.
It was such a beautiful day (besides a few flu scares) …we went on with the shoot and I was so enjoying this light care free family.


This Audrey Girl melts my heart!

…And Mallory KNEW how to model!

Handsome Sam…he was very obedient and posed for me just right…and natural (I like natural)


…with his baby blues’

And Mom & Dad were just the cutest thing!

She is such a beauty and he has those same baby blues’ as his little man.

I can’t stand her!

Major Tough Guys 😉

I love me some cute shoes!

One of my best friends since I was two, is getting married. Her and her man were down here for Christmas when he popped the question at Balboa Park. They are leaving tomorrow so we had to hurry and get some engagement shots in.

They are a beautiful couple aren’t they!!

The Ovard Family

The Ovard’s were great to shoot. They have such a great connection with each other and they just like to have fun. They even brought their hockey gear along to model for me (which turned out to be my personal favs). They are huge hockey fans and their son is quite the hockey player.

Don’t let his serious expression fool you…He has fun with his family..you can tell he loves to be around them.

Seriously gorgeous daughter!
