Just As It Should Be | Family Portraits

Little Miss Ava was as cute as a button for her big photo shoot. With four new teeth to show off, the camera just fell in love with her.

 

Love her long lashes.

 

In mom's and dad's arms - what better place is there for a little girl?

 

A girl and her daddy -- gives me warm fuzzies.

New Holiday Cards - The Retro Collection

Last, but not least, I'm announcing my new set of holiday cards - "The Retro Collection". For those of you who have a little more of a funky style, these should be perfect. 

These designs are available to anyone booking a standard or mini-session, but be quick because if you need your cards in time for Christmas, please order them by the end of November.

Holiday Cards Preview

I thought you might enjoy seeing some of the holiday card designs in printed form, so I picked out two of my recent favorites to show you.

The heavy card stock is beautiful and there's lots of room for pictures and writing. My clients are loving these! 

 

I'll be releasing a few brand new retro card designs on the blog very soon so keep an eye out!

Love of Stripes | Sacramento Baby Portraits

Give me a baby boy in stripes any day and I'm a happy photographer. Here's Hunter with his lovely two cousins featured in the last post from today. 

I adore the light in this shot, warm morning light dipping in and collecting all of the creamy fall colors around them. Every season has it's own flavor and I'm in love with autumn light.

More delicious light with super-sweet smiles. Perfect.

 

He was so good for the camera. So calm - just hanging out, knowing it was all about him in that moment.

Autumn Glory | Sacramento Child Portraits

Ah, autumn is here in all of its glory. Where I'm from, we didn't really have seasons, so making leaf piles is pretty much the best thing ever. These girls were all about it and we got super-fun "leaf-tossing" pictures.

 

Her parents must just get mesmerized in these eyes. Beautiful.

 

So young (3 yrs), but a model already. She had STRIKING blue eyes that anyone could get lost in. Gorgeous.

Stay tuned for more pics of these beauties in their photo shoot with their cousin!
