A couple weekends ago we had some gorgeous mammas & their adorable babies join in for the Mommy & Me Mini Sessions! It was so fun frolicking thru the golden fields at Bommer Canyon, Irvine . It was really the perfect soft light we needed for our sessions too! I just adore motherhood and getting to capture that raw beauty of it all is my absolute favorite. Here are a few sneak peeks from the mini sessions.
Also, in case you missed it I opened up one more date for these Mommy & Me Mini’s on July 9th. I still have a few spots left so if you’d like to learn more about these sessions or want to reserve your spot let me know! ;)
Floral Crowns : The Blooming Bud
Jessica + Avery | Mommy & Me Session | Motherhood Photos
This gorgeous mamma, Jessica, is a dear friend of mine and I just can’t get enough of photographing her new little girl Avery. For this session we incorporated floral crowns and flowy neutral toned dresses to really get that dreamy feel to our session. I loved just sitting in the fields with these two watching them interact and capturing their love + bond. I think motherhood is so incredibly beautiful and we really can’t photograph it enough. I love the raw emotion and real connection between a mamma and her offspring , I love to get those natural organic shots that allow us to once remember a time that seems to go by so fast. Scroll down for more from this session.

The Schwartz Family // Newport Beach Newborn Session // Nursery Inspiration
This sweet family invited me into their home to document their new little addition to the family . When I entered into this nursery that this mamma pieced together and designed for her little girl arriving , my jaw about dropped. For starters, every last detail was so intentional and the color palette was pretty much a photographers dream! Second, big brother Fin was super excited to show off his new little sister and definitely stole the show (in a good way) Every mamma wants their baby’s first ever room to be special and Nicole definitely nailed it ! I mean c’mon, look at that hand made bracelet with baby girls name spelt out, how stinkin cute & personal is that?!
The aesthetic of this nursery is honestly to die for and I couldn't stop swooning over it our entire session, clicking away on my camera.

L i f e s t y l e // Some fun shots of my munchkins as they get settled into their new rooms in the new house .. It’s been chaotic since we are in the process of moving but when I take a moment to sit down to watch my girls play like this I am reminded it’s all worth it. I am reminded to slow down, the packed boxes can unpack later, the laundry can wait , the dishes can wait- because these girls are my world and time is so precious. I love love watching them play and love when they are using imaginative play. It is as if time freezes and nothing else around us is as important as living this very moment. My oldest loves to sing, dance and is creative at heart. She can make something from nothing - I want her to remember these times in her childhood forever .
Capturing their childhood is so rewarding as a mommy.
Jaelene to Audrey -> “Audrey did you really just take all my clean pajamas and unfold them and drag them everywhere? "
Audrey silent pause. Then a pose. haha
The unspeakable beauty of motherhood //
Motherhood is truly one of my favorite things to photograph. When a client books me to come and document this new chapter in their lives, I feel so honored. I feel honored that I get to watch your first interactions with this little being you created, that I get to even sometimes hold your precious gift in my arms before positioning her for a shot, that I get to witness this incredible bond between you & your baby! I can remember after having my first child the greatest adjustment for me was not the lack of sleep, the endless laundry, or the huge responsibility that I felt, but the intense sense of vulnerability I experienced with my heart now outside my body. I had never felt so deeply about anything – ever. There is something about holding this precious little defenseless person that simultaneously evokes delirious joy and overwhelming helplessness. You would give your own soul to see them safe and wholly evolved into the fullness of their destiny. You would pay any price; sacrifice any goal; reach any compromise to make them content and complete. THIS is motherhood and getting to document these first moments for you all- it leaves my heart so full as I lay my head down to sleep. Motherhood is simply beautiful.
