I had such an incredible time photographing Amanda yesterday in Pasadena. I like using these cool urban backdrops for some photos because it provides some great textures to work with. These are a few that stood out to me as I was starting to browse through the images, but I will be posting more favorites soon. Thanks again, Amanda, for being so fun to work with!
Alex is six months old now! Wow! Time has been going by so quickly! I feel like it wasn't that long ago when I photographed him as a tiny newborn. And now here he is smiling, "talking", rolling over, growing, and learning so quickly. I had a great time with Justin, Katie, and Alex this week when we documented Alex's six months of life. I look forward to meeting up with you guys in another six months to document his one year birthday!
Alex thought he was quite funny as he kept rolling over from his tummy to his back. We kept trying to put him on his tummy and he continued to roll onto his back as he was cracking up at himself! I think he was very proud of himself!
His funny sense of humor came out here, too, when he stuck his tongue out at us. I am pretty sure he knew how funny and cute he was!
The Faith Foundation "is shaping the future by setting young leaders on a course for success and giving them a head start in their college career. Each year the Faith Foundation awards scholarships that empower students to pursue higher education at a four-year college or university. Since its inception, the Faith Foundation has awarded more than a quarter of a million dollars in scholarships."
Although I am not directly involved with this organization or church I seek to donate my time and talent for worthy causes. Empowering and shaping young leaders is definitely a worthy cause in my eyes. Recently, I had the privilege of donating a family portrait session to a silent auction fundraiser for the Faith Foundation.
The Leong family is the generous family that won this opportunity for a family portrait session. We had their family portrait session at a few different locations around Pasadena so they could have nature as a backdrop as well as some portraits with an urban feel. Thank you for your generosity towards this cause and it was an honor to meet you and get to spend some time with you!
I think that it is very important to give back to the community in whatever ways that we can, so if you would like me to donate my photography to your good cause, please feel free to contact me and we can talk about the details.
Courtney will be graduating from high school in less than one month! She is such a talented, fun, smart, energetic, beautiful young woman. I have known Courtney for a long time and I can hardly believe that she will be graduating and going off to college. Courtney, I am so proud of you and look forward to hearing about all of your future successes!
Juliet and Stephen invited me into their home in Rancho Palos Verdes to take their engagement photos. As you will see they have an amazing view from their backyard so it was the perfect spot for their session. I had a great time hanging out with these two and I look forward to documenting their wedding day in September at Wayfarers Chapel. I know it will be a gorgeous, love-filled celebration! Thanks guys for welcoming me into your lives and being so much fun to photograph!
What a gorgeous sight to see when you wake up in the morning and look out your window!
