Today is my parents’ 36th wedding anniversary and I couldn’t be prouder to share that with you! As someone who loves love, I have the greatest example of that in front of me whenever I go home. After 36 years as a married couple, they know the buttons to push to get each other going,...

YOUR JOY.SIMONIAN.
Sugar and spice and everything nice. Yep, that describes these two precious little girls! I had the opportunity to shoot a session for some friend’s just a few weeks ago, just in the squeak of time for Christmas. I hadn’t seen their beautiful daughters in some time and when I arrived, I was...
YOUR JOY.LABRADO.
While it’s sometimes a challenge being a part-time photographer, it also has it’s blessings! Many of my clients I have known through my day job, including Jennifer and Larry! When I started posting images on Facebook, I got a great message from them asking if I could snap their Christmas photo and some images of...
YOUR JOY.FOX.
Kenny, Bethany, and Cora met me one marathon Saturday. The shots turned out beautifully, which is a good thing because Bethany is like a little sister to me. I’ve known her since she was born and so seeing her as a mommy was a thrill. She and her fabulous husband have a beautiful baby daughter...
YOUR LOVE.GILLILAN.
Rebekah, Brett, and Piper came to CA for Thanksgiving and we snuck in a quick photoshoot! We met in Corona del Mar, a longtime favorite location of Rebekah’s, but sadly, dogs weren’t allowed on the sand. Nevertheless, we made due and got some adorable “family” shots!

YOUR JOY.OCHOA.
Last weekend, I had the pleasure of meeting up with an old high school friend of mine in order to photograph her family. It’s hard to imagine that someone I used to dance with and play with after school is already a mom…after all, I’m still a kid. Right, RIGHT?!
LeAnn, your girls are GORGEOUS and...
YOUR JOY.SUYDAM.
I met up with the Suydam family last weekend at a small park near their house and it turned out to be quite perfect. But that’s not all that was perfect…their darling little girls fall right into that category, too! Lauren and Hannah are completely delicious and love to play and run around. They are...
YOUR JOY.DANCE.
This weekend, I continued the family Christmas card shoot bonanza. I began with a family session at Irvine Park, near the railroad. My friend Julie hasn’t had a family portrait done and her son is 4 1/2, so she figured it was time. And Saturday was her birthday, too, so I’m guessing she got what...
YOUR JOURNEY.JOHNSONS.
This GORGEOUS couple loves each other more than anyone else I’ve ever met and in December, they’ll celebrate their 36th wedding anniversary. How do I know so much about this couple??? Because they’re my parents!
While out at Ponte Family Estates Winery for dinner a couple of weeks ago, I happened to bring my camera in...
YOUR JOY.VENEGAS.
I’ve been up to my ears in Christmas card photos lately, not that I’m complaining! Even though it’s been hot as can be here in So Cal, I’ve edited all my shoots wearing Christmas socks, because darn it, I just feel like it!
One of my favorite families, the Venegas’ wanted something rustic for their photos...
