It’s always a joy to photograph the Hite family, and this Laguna Beach session was no exception. With the beautiful ocean as our backdrop and a calm overcast day, the setting was perfect for capturing their love and connection. The Hites’ playful, warm energy shines through in each photo, as they enjoy the beach with their little ones. Laguna Beach truly offers some of the most stunning settings for family photography, and the soft light of the day only added to the natural beauty of this session.

As an Orange County family photographer, I’ve had the privilege of documenting many special moments, and I love how beach sessions like this one allow families to feel relaxed and natural in their environment. The Hite family’s session perfectly reflects why I adore being a Laguna Beach family photographer. From the little moments of laughter to the sweet, quiet moments of love, it’s such an honor to freeze these fleeting times in time.

If you’re looking for a family photographer in Laguna Beach or anywhere in Orange County, I’d love to help you capture your family’s memories. Whether it’s a playful session on the sand or a more intimate in-home session, each moment tells a unique story. Let’s capture these beautiful milestones together with natural, timeless photography that you and your family can cherish for years to come.

It was such a privilege to capture the Dodge Family during their beautiful in-home lifestyle newborn session. Leah Dodge and her family welcomed me into their gorgeous home for this intimate and heartfelt photoshoot, where we captured moments that will forever hold meaning in their journey as a growing family. Their sweet newborn, alongside their adorable toddler and family dog, created a truly heartwarming atmosphere. There’s something incredibly special about photographing families in their own space— it allows for authentic moments and the comfort of home to shine through in every image. This session was filled with tender family connections, laughter, and love, perfectly embodying what I love about being an Orange County newborn photographer.

In-home newborn sessions are a wonderful way to capture those precious early days of life, and this session with the Dodge family exemplifies why lifestyle newborn photography is so cherished. If you’re searching for a lifestyle photographer in Orange County or looking to document your family’s unique story, I would love to help you preserve these unforgettable moments in a relaxed and natural setting.

I recently had the pleasure of photographing the Makol family in their beautiful home for a San Diego in-home lifestyle newborn session. This family session was filled with love, joy, and precious moments as they welcomed their newest addition. Capturing their connection in the cozy and intimate environment of their home made for some of the most heartfelt and natural images.

Newborn lifestyle sessions like this are so special because they allow families to be themselves in a relaxed setting, focusing on the natural interactions and emotions that come with welcoming a new baby. The Makol family radiated happiness, and their little ones were full of curiosity and excitement for their new sibling. Moments like these are so fleeting, which makes capturing them all the more important.

As an Orange County family photographer, I often get the chance to travel to surrounding areas like San Diego to document these important milestones. This session was a wonderful reminder of how special it is to capture families in their own space, especially when a new baby arrives. From the sibling cuddles to the tender moments between parents and baby, every image tells a story of love and growth.

If you’re looking for a San Diego newborn photographer or a family photographer in Orange County, I’d love to help you create lasting memories of your family’s most important moments. Whether you’re welcoming a new baby or simply want to capture a special time in your family’s journey, lifestyle sessions are a beautiful way to preserve these memories in a way that feels natural and timeless.

It’s always a little nerve wracking photographing another photographer, but I felt so honored when this mamma photog asked me to capture her gorgeous family while on vacation here visiting California. This Huntington Beach Family session was as light & airy as it gets and that's always a favorite of mine. I love how cloudy days offer us that soft diffused light resulting in clean modern family photos. Also, when clients are THIS stylish- it's just the icing on the cake. This mammas neutral pallet wardrobe was to die for and helped create some really dreamy shots of her family! 

 

Thanks Kristin for trusting me to capture your family making sweet memories while visiting here!

Xoxo ,

This in-home Newport Beach newborn session was so fun! As soon as I saw these sweet brothers with their new little baby sister, I knew we were going to freeze some magical memories for them to look back on! This insanely beautiful mamma had such great style and all areas of her home seeped dreamy open light! During this session the kids played, jumped, and wrestled like brothers always do, and loved on their new sister! I always want clients to incorporate parts of themselves and their everyday, so we played with cars and jumped on the bed and acted silly for some shots, always a fav of mine to capture on the other side of the lens!

Being an Orange County Family Photographer is a dream guys! Their is seriously nothing I was more destined to do . I love capturing these first moments for families and everyday I am so grateful that you choose me to document it for you! Their is such an over-abundance of joy when a baby arrives , it's always important for me to help you to remember these precious (and sleep depriving ;) moments that can be so fleeting! When a family invites me into their home, I aim to capture that effortless raw everyday beauty . I love to step back and ask parents to just stare at their little munchkins features, let the baby move, yawn, and stretch.  Babies have wonderful, perfect, sweet movements, so I do not stress over having the perfect pose in every frame. If theirs an older sibling in the session, tickling is a must! Play airplane with them, let them include their favorite toy, talk with them about their little sibling, whether it be "Can you find your sisters nose?" or "Lets give love to the baby!"  Remember, lifestyle photography is about capturing moments, not poses. That’s pretty much the best part – you don’t have to stress about making everything perfect – you just want to get your newborn an griwing family on camera, so you have photos to remember them by.

 Mommy & Me Mini Sessions

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! ;)

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.
