TWO years old today! | Murrieta Baby Photographer

December 23rd, 2011

I woke up super early this morning. I bet I was just hot because I slept in a sweatshirt, but it made me remember how exactly two years ago I woke up really really early: I got up and read my Bible. Then I tried to edit some photos. And soon decided to walk around the block – a few times. When I got back, I woke up my husband and we called some sweet friends to take care of our daughter while we went to the hospital – to meet this little person. She’s called Elizabeth if you’re being proper, but we call her Izzy or the silly goose.

Abby liked her little sister right away. . . for the most part. A couple of weeks after we brought Izzy home, I remember Abby asking, “So when is Izzy going to HER home?”

It was totally evident early on that baby Izzy has a laughing personality and a mischievous streak in her. Her older sister is pretty patient and forbearing.

Even at one year old, Izzy had no hair. It’s slowly started to come in and was worth the wait. She now has huge crazy ringlets.

What a blessing this little girl has been! We’re so thankful for her and look forward to many more years of laughing with her!

One Year Old Cora | Murrieta Baby Photographer

December 5th, 2011

This little cutie has become part of my life over the last year. I have had the joy of seeing her at 3, 6, and 9 months, and now she’s one year old and toddling around. Her expressions and smiles are precious. She holds out her arms for balance when she walks. And she has had bumps and bruises that prove she is still learning.

Usually, I am a natural light photographer. I love to shoot outdoors – especially in fields with long grass, trees, fallen logs, and gorgeous afternoon sun. BUT sometimes our special memories are indoors, like Cora’s nursery.

Cora’s room is rich with gifts from loving friends and family, and treasures from her parent’s childhood. Before her room changed from a baby nursery to a little toddler room, we needed to record these memories! Seeing some of her toys took me back — who else wanted a puffalump when they were little?

One of my favorite things with little girls this age is sitting to read them books. I love that Jennie does that too!

After we gave Cora a baby paparazzi break, we took her outside to say hi to her doggies. I love love love this hairclip that Jennie found! I laughed when I learned that it was found on etsy, one of my favorite places for special and gorgeous handmade accessories. Jennie has great taste!! And the blue ballerina skirt? Love it too!

Cora needed a warmer outfit, so we did a quick clothing break and concluded with a few fun family shots.

Good Friends and a Baby Update | Murrieta Family Photographer

December 2nd, 2011

I’m always amazed at how quickly babies change in the first year! I just took newborn portraits of baby Danica three months ago. She was so sleepy and tiny. She curled up in a little ball to sleep, and was even willing to rest on Daddy’s guitar.

Now Danica is a super cute BABY with her own expressions and showing personality. She’s definitely not a newborn anymore!

This is her big sister, Delany. She is super smart, loves her family, and is already learning to be musical just like her parents.

Hats?! LOVE it. They draw your attention to focus on the beautiful, sparkling eyes.

We moved houses over the summer and I still can’t believe how close I live to this great shooting location. I love the sun, the grass and the trees!

My favorite, favorite, favorite image from the session. Did I mention that I love this image??
Delany is such a good big sister. She was so gentle as she held her baby sister. D – thanks for letting your babies sit right on the ground in the field! I love the natural look – without a blanket covering up the pretty green grass.

Here’s the whole beautiful family!

Another favorite image from the session. They both look amazing!

Dualy has fantastic fashion sense. I love how she has their outfits coordinate, but definitely are not matchy-matchy. If anyone needs help choosing clothing, I’ll just give you her number. (just kidding!!)

Thank you for a great session! I love doing family pictures for you!
