Happy Mother's Day

HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY EVERYONE! I hope all the mothers out there enjoyed their special day... especially my own mom and mother-in-law! They are two very special people in my life. And this has been a very special client in my life. It has been so much fun to watch Annabelle and Daisy grow up over the last 8 months. And their mom puts so much into planning for their sessions... it really shows in the images! I was saving these from one of my Mother's Day mini sessions (that turned out to be not so "mini" after all) to post on Mother's Day. So here are the rest from their Temecula Valley session at the ranch.

Beautiful in Newport Coast

Meet Miss "G" - a gorgeous gal from Newport Coast. We did a modeling portfolio for her at her beautiful home and then walked down to Crystal Cove for a few beach shots. "G" was so fun and relaxed to work with, and has the most fabulous blue eyes ever! We had a great time together and I am sure she has a great future ahead of her!

Beatiful Day at Crystal Cove

But it very almost wasn't a beautiful day. In fact it rained all week, and the Lee family was moving out of the country, and this day was their last chance to be together as a family. We had done a studio session earlier in the week, but they really wanted to get some shots at the beach to remember their time here. It rained all day, but we decided to try for it anyways - minus their 1 month old! And amazingly, as we arrived the rain stopped and the clouds began to clear, leaving the most beautiful diffused light! I love the soft muted colors we were surrounded by! And we had so much fun together... their little girl really loved the beach! Thanks for sharing the day with me, and good luck at your new home.
