tea for two {Redlands Children Photographer}

Like most parents I am in love with my kids and think that everything they do is just so cute, well most of the time.

This is especially true for me and my little girl right now. I am so in love with this age and this stage of life she in is. I can't get enough, really!

She lives in the days of tea parties, being a princess, dancing ALL the time and not caring who's watching.

She lives by the motto of "the more fluffy, frilly and sparkly the better."   

She even has the little princess voice to match.

This was a shoot I had really been wanting to do, while keeping it simple. I wanted to capture "her" as she really is right now...my fun-loving dancing princess.

We had family visiting from Hawaii at the time so cousin Savvy came along for some fun, so glad she did. Worked out perfect since they love so many of the same things.







Girls, I hope you always dance like no one is watching!!


My sweet Chloe girl, may you always know that you are a princess and should be treated with respect and kindness.

xoxo, mom.

splish splash

Oh summer is here in the hottest way. If you know me at all then you know I am NOT a fan of it and it's long hot days. Don't get me wrong there are things I enjoy about it. Who can hate summer vacations, beach trips, camping, bbq's, fresh squeezed lemonade and ice cream...lots and lots of ice cream? Not me...I do love those things!

Summer has it's moments and here have been a few of my recent favorites.

The kids think I'm the greatest for getting them this fancy pool for the backyard. Shh, don't tell them any differently. ;)







Cheers to summer and your favorite things about it.

Now go have some fun!!!

and the winners are.... {Cabazon Photographer}

So if you remember last month we had the pleasure of being part of Cabazon Outlets Strike a Pose event again this year. Such a fun time! Well the winners were crowned and now it was time for them to have their special shoot.

I had the pleasure of working with these awesome winners a couple of weeks ago. They were so laid back and fun....just my style.

Here are just a few of my favorites from the day. Really there were many, it was so hard to narrow them down. These images will be used in Cabazon's ads for the year, on display around the mall and near by locations, on facebok and on their website.
