Henry at 5 months | Murrieta Baby Photographer

October 12th, 2011

I was so excited to meet little Henry and take his first official photo session! He is such a happy little baby. It was so easy to coax his smiles out – and as you can see he usually laughed at me too! Yes, Henry, I’m sure I do look funny.

We opted to do Henry’s session outdoors at a park, that way we could also get some natural “outdoorsy” shots too. Henry isn’t really sitting up on his own yet, but you could have fooled me with this next image. I think we caught him at just the right moment.

I also think he looks super cute lounging in his basket, though . . .

We wrapped up with a few family photos.

Thanks C&K! Henry is so precious and it was a joy to meet your family!!

Baby Iliana | Murrieta Newborn Photographer

September 14th, 2011

Meet little Iliana at only 8 days old. She’s so precious and tiny, and was a fantastic model for her first photo session. Under 14 days is always the best time for newborn pictures, and I was so thankful that J&R were able to bring her in for a shoot before she started ‘growing up.’
Iliana was absolutely perfect through most of her shoot, but once we got to the “specialty shot” part of her session and I began to put her in the bowl, she put up a good fight! This sweet baby has some spice in her and it will be so fun to see her personality unfold over the years! (They bought one of my Baby’s 1st Year packages.) As you can see, I won the battle and Iliana actually got pretty comfortable in her new bed.

Big Brother came to check her out. I think he decided that he likes her.

It’s always amazing how quickly they grow. Just a little over a year ago, big brother would have fit inside of this bowl!

As we were getting her ready for this part of the shoot, she woke up for just a bit. Doesn’t she look like she’s just watching and thinking about it all?

There’s something about baby feet that I just LOVE!

Isn’t she just adorable?!

J&R – It was such a joy to spend time with you and to get to capture these precious times for your family! ~Beth

Nine Month Old Cora | Temecula Family Photographer

September 9th, 2011

It just takes a moment. That quick moment when they smile or laugh and you’re ready and you snap the photo. You would absolutely never know that this photo session wasn’t Cora’s favorite thing. With the help of Cora’s FANTASTIC parents, and by making a total fool of myself to get her to look and smile, we pulled off some great shots. I’ve never sung ‘the Itsy Bitsy Spider’ so many times before – but I don’t mind at all and it’s so rewarding to see the result!

I LOVE her sparkly eyes here!

She already has good taste in shoes!

Can she get any cuter? Sitting and crossing her ankles for me? Really??

Aren’t they a cute family?! Cora has the biggest grin here!

Rustic, vintage, classic. Yep – I love it. Even more so because it includes Cora’s special bear.

Cora’s honorary auntie and uncle joined us for a few special photos and I couldn’t resist taking one just of them as a couple in the beautiful sun glow.

And by the end, I think Cora was saying, “Goodnight everyone! I’m happy with my blanket and ready to go to sleep!”
