Andy & Jeanne + Bump

Andy and Jeanne is expecting a little girl in late October. The first time I photographed Jeanne she was at 15 weeks of pregnancy and this past weekend when we photographed the family she was exactly 30 weeks pregnant.  With just less than 10 wks to go we are all very excited to welcome the little one into the world.  Next photo session of this lovely family will be joined by the little girl outside of mommy's belly.  See you soon Baby.  xoxo  

Ella & Marley & Carlyn + Andrew & Sam

These adorable sisters were visiting their relatives in Pennsylvania from Korea, an annual summer vacation ritual.  Each of them have very different personalities but were so loving of one another.  Ella, a six year-old, was the best big sister anyone can ask for.  She has so much energy and a sparkling personality.  And when it comes to taking care of her younger sisters, she shares her toys without any hesitation and becomes mom's most trustworthy helper.  Marley, four years old, is quiet at first but once she warms up she'll share many of her thoughts of the world with you.  She also has the most contagious giggles that will leave you smiling for hours.  Last but not least, Carlyn, two years old, just takes your breath away.  This gorgeous little girl gets jealous when anybody else is near mommy, but she is lucky to have two very understanding big sisters who will let her keep mommy to herself. They love playing with her when mommy's not around.  Their cousins, Andrew and Sam, took care of their little relatives like they were their own siblings and accommodated whatever they could so that they would enjoy their stay. I had a blast hanging out with these kids. Please stay healthy and lovely till I see you again next year! xoxo

Look at this adorable girl.  She was all about flipping over (from her back to her belly) and singing during the playtime we had.  She also wins the award for most outfit changed baby I have ever photographed.  I believe she changed 5 times and no crying til the strawberry outfit at the very end. (Brava!) I had lots of fun meeting the lil one and spending a quality Saturday afternoon with this cute family.

Sibling

These are my favorite photographs of my mom and her siblings, taken in LA this spring.  We were missing one of my uncles (he lives outside the country) but it was so fun photographing such a loving family.  My mom (on the right) doesn't get to see her brothers and sisters often unless there's a family event that summons us all to one place, so I wanted to give her something memorable.  I think the mission was a success!  They had so much fun-- being together was probably more than enough to bring the happiest of smiles to their faces-- and they did a great job following my silly directions.  ;) More photos to come with the rest of the family members.  Happy Friday Everyone! Xoxo

Allison & Zack

A few months ago I was in LA for a workshop and this cute couple showed up to be our models for the day.  They were Allison, an adorable blogger of Hello Lately, and Zack, a graphic designer.   Despite the 20 or so eager photographers swarming around them like bees around sweet flowers, they were so in love that they were able to escape into their own world, away from the cacophony of clicking shutters.  Thanks for letting us "attack" you with our cameras and capture some wonderful moments.  Xoxo
