Marceline De Rosa

2010-01-13T01:04:00.001-08:00

Ladies and gentleman, meet the next big thing to hit the entertainment industry...Marceline De Rosa. She is a star in the making, and here are her headshots to prove it. Thanks for giving me the opportunity to shoot with you, Marcie!

The Shen Family

2010-01-13T00:44:00.000-08:00

Since they both became new parents themselves this year, Jerry and his brother thought it would be a great idea to surprise their parents with a gift of photos of their new families, so we met up at their home and shot one morning in early January - I must say that it was a great morning. Their two little ones were so sweet and cute, I really enjoyed working with this whole family!

The Newman Family

2010-01-13T00:33:00.000-08:00

I apologize that it has been a while since I updated the blog - with the whirlwind of the photo season and the holidays, the blog got away from me! Now that I have some time to get back, I wanted to share with you some shots of the Newman family that I shot back in December. We shot at their beautiful home and got to spend the better part of the morning together! Their little one was a doll and all of them were so great to work with. Here are a few of my favorites from the shoot!

The McConnell Family

2009-12-22T00:53:00.000-08:00

One of my favorite things is when I get to work with a family over and over again. It is always so fun to see the kids and family grow together. Here is the McConnell family, great friends of mine - I am sure you might recognize them from earlier postings on the blog or my website, but now here they are with the newest addition to their family, Lila! Grace is a wonderful big sister and I look forward to many more sessions with the whole family in the future. Thanks, Jeff & Erika!

The Yum Boys

2009-12-13T00:20:00.000-08:00

GQ - I have found your newest models! The Yum boys were a riot to work with! In a matter of minutes they would go from being very serious to super silly - too funny! I got some great shots of them just being themselves and having fun.

The O'Connor Family

2009-12-13T00:07:00.000-08:00

I must say I have one of the best jobs ever. I get to meet so many great people and the time I spend photographing with them always keeps me on my toes - in a good way! I got to spend the afternoon with the O'Connor family recently and we had the best time - their little girl Eden was a little model in training and is clearly going to be a heart-breaker some day.

The Cole Family

2009-12-08T22:58:00.000-08:00

The Cole family's favorite place to spend time is at Huntington Beach, so I met them there to shoot some pictures of their whole family last weekend. They were so fun to work with - they even had their own holiday props! I had so much fun with them at the beach and I must say that it was pretty neat to be able to shoot three generations of women from their family. Here are a few of my favorites from the day!

The Ashton Family

2009-12-08T22:51:00.000-08:00

The Ashton family met me in La Canada to shoot some family portraits for their holiday greeting cards and I could not believe how much little Addison has grown up in only a year. Still a sweet, spunky little girl, but all grown up now! Here are a couple from the day.

The Runnels Family

2009-12-01T23:26:00.000-08:00

The Runnels family were referred to me by one of my good friends and clients and I must say I can't thank her enough for the referral! Besides being a very handsome family, they were fantastic to work with. Their little one, Taylor, was just a doll, and both of them were such sweet doting parents it made for a great morning shoot at the beach!

The Turner Family

2009-12-01T23:11:00.000-08:00

The Turner family wanted to something a little bit different for their shoot and thought it might be fun to photograph at some of the more "touristy" spots around Pasadena. Since I am always up for an adventure, I gladly agreed, so we spent the afternoon hoping from spot to spot to capture some memories of their family as residents turned "tourists" for the day! We had a great time together and as always, the whole family was amazing to work with.

The Gilbert Family

2009-12-01T23:03:00.000-08:00

I met up with the Gilbert clan last weekend and we spent a good part of the morning together shooting and playing outside. This whole family is great! They are all so relaxed and fun to be around, it is truly a pleasure when I get to work with them!

The Krug Family

2009-11-30T23:06:00.000-08:00

The Krug family met up with me last weekend to capture some photos of their family and their little girl, Addison. We had a great time together watching Addison play outside on one of the most beautiful days we have had all November. Here are a few of my favorites from the day!

Generation for Change Jerry Brown Event

2009-11-30T22:52:00.000-08:00

I was recently asked by Generation for Change (G4C), an L.A.-based grassroots organization devoted to progressive causes, to photograph some of the events for their organization. Most recently they hosted California Attorney General Jerry Brown and a select gathering of young professionals at The Terrace at XIV in Hollywood, CA, where the group celebrated their newly announced endorsement of Brown for Governor. It was a great evening, full of energy from the crowd - below are a few shots from the night.

The Ringo-Saenz Family

2009-11-22T18:48:00.000-08:00

You may recognize the Ringo-Saenz family from my blog last year - this family is so nice, so fun, and so great to work with. I could not believe that the kids, Spencer and Alina, had gotten so big! Here are a few of my favorite shots from the day.

Adelaide Gibson

2009-11-22T18:31:00.000-08:00

We have been so busy the past few weeks with the beginning of the holiday season, and it is looking like it will stay busy for a while (which is GREAT!) so I will do my best to keep up with the blog! Here are a couple shots of the most active little girl I have ever shot - Adelaide was a kick to be around and I had a great time shooting with their family!

The Regan Family

2009-11-09T20:57:00.000-08:00

I recently met up with the Regan family to photograph them and their little guy, Chase, for his 1st birthday. Chase was a great sport and Alli and Matt were great too. Here are a few shots from the day.

Emerson Elementary Halloween Festival

2009-11-09T20:48:00.000-08:00

Last week I set up shop at the Emerson Elementary Halloween Festival in Burbank. It was great to see all the kids dressed up in their costumes - everything from dinosaurs to princesses to ghostly goblins! It brought back so many memories of Halloween when I was a kid, I loved it!

Austin Loughrin

2009-10-11T23:16:00.000-07:00

Austin Loughrin just turned one-year old, so naturally, his parents, Shannon and Mark, wanted to document this time in his life so they could remember it forever! Just learning how to walk, Austin was so much fun to work with! He has such a personality and is just such a little man!

The Keaney Wedding

2009-09-15T20:28:00.000-07:00

I don't ordinarily shoot a lot of weddings, but I could not pass up the opportunity to shoot the Keaney's wedding in Hawaii. Lisa and Brendan were married at the Kualoa Ranch on the island of Oahu in Hawaii, on a cliff overlooking the beautiful Pacific and chinaman's hat. Everything about this wedding was beautiful, but the most amazing thing about it was the "aloha spirit" and obvious love between the couple and all of their family and friends. I was truly honored to be a part of this wedding - thank you, Lisa and Brendan, for including me.

The Egan Family

2009-09-03T00:01:00.000-07:00

I met up with the Egan family last week at their home in Sherman Oaks, California and spent some time getting to know Scott and Brooke, their two girls, Hallie and Frannie, and even their dogs, Marco and Pollo! After a little warming up, the girls had some fun playing while I took some shots of the family. Here are a few shots from the day!

The Colbert Family

2009-08-04T20:35:00.000-07:00

I had the pleasure of working with the Colbert family recently and snapped some shots of them and their adorable little girl, Claire. For a hot summer day, Claire was certainly a trooper. Here are a few of my favorites from the day.

Jane Hasty

2009-06-01T23:24:00.000-07:00

Last weekend I got to spend the morning with Jane Hasty, a very sweet, very serious 14-month old! She was a little unsure of me and my camera, but I was still able to capture some great shots of her - including one or two smiles!

The Reynolds Family

2009-04-23T23:57:00.000-07:00

In case you don't know the Reynolds family, they are one of the nicest families I know. I had the pleasure of working with them recently and really, they are as sweet as they are beautiful! Nicole, Ty, and Jack all have the best little personalities, I really enjoyed working with them! Thanks Shauna and Todd, for spending the morning with us and giving me the opportunity to photograph your family!

The Turner Family

2009-04-23T23:41:00.000-07:00

Last Sunday I met up with the Turner family at their home in Pasadena, California. Despite the 100 degree weather, we had a great time playing on the tire swing and blowing bubbles in the back yard! Here are my favorites from the shoot.

Birthday Party at LA Live Steamers Railroad Museum

2009-04-07T23:00:00.000-07:00

This last weekend I had the opportunity to photograph one of the coolest 3 year old birthday parties I have ever been to! Ella turned 3 years old and celebrated her birthday with close friends and family at the Los Angeles Steamers Railroad Museum, a little-known gem in Los Angeles. There were train rides, bubbles, cupcakes, and fun to be had by all. This was one of the nicest families I have worked with in a while, it was a really great day! Here are a few shots from the day!

The Gilbert Family

2009-03-29T21:18:00.001-07:00

We got together with the Gilbert family over the weekend to take advantage of the great weather and capture some memories. What a gorgeous family, and so fun to work with!

Hefner Family

2009-01-14T21:24:00.000-08:00

Here are some shots from my session with the Hefner family last weekend. Matthew is a funny little guy - he had me laughing the entire time! It was a good day.

Descanso with the Hurleys

2008-12-30T00:09:00.000-08:00

I got a chance to catch up and shoot some good friends at Descanso Gardens while they were visiting home over the holidays. We had fun watching Adam play and taking pictures of little Ava looking so cute in her little hat! It was a good morning with good friends!

Pre-Holiday Photo Session

2008-12-29T23:47:00.000-08:00

The weekend before Christmas, we were able to find a time between everyone's holiday errands to shoot the Ringo-Saenz family at the Huntington Library in Pasadena. I couldn't believe how energetic their kids were, with Spencer so full of smiles! Here is a peak at the day.

Descanso Gardens with the McConnells

2008-12-03T21:43:00.000-08:00

Erika, Jeff, and Grace McConnell wanted to shoot their photos in a really beautiful location, so I thought, what better place to shoot than Descanso Gardens? Since they are like family to me, I love it when I get to work with this family! We had a great time, wandering the grounds and watching Grace laugh and play in the leaves!

The Yagura Family

2008-12-03T21:17:00.000-08:00

I recently met the Yagura family at Huntington Library to shoot their family portraits. We lucked out with the weather, it warmed up just in time for our shoot! It was nice to have the immediate family plus grandma and grandpa there to take part - even better because little Kailyn thought grandpa was so silly!

The Yum Family

2008-12-01T21:14:00.000-08:00

I met the Yum family at Descanso Gardens in La Canada, California to shoot some photos of the kids and the family. These boys are amazing! They were so playful and full of energy - it was a great day and an great shoot!

The Ashton's

2008-12-01T20:58:00.000-08:00

The Ashton's are such a sweet family - I shot their family portraits at their beautiful home in La Canada Flintridge and got to know them and their daughter, Addison - what a sweet little girl!

The Loughrin Family

2008-12-01T20:14:00.000-08:00

Last weekend I had the opportunity to shoot the Loughrin Family at their home in Montrose, California. Little Austin was a great sport - here are my favorites from the shoot.
