merry christmas

From my heart, my best wishes to you and your family

Remember Evan? He is turning one year old in two weeks. I can't wait to see him at his birthday party.

holiday family sessions

I really enjoyed this holiday season. I'm fortunate to work with the most adorable kids and families in the Los Angeles and Orange County area. Thank you for sharing the joy, love and holiday spirit with me. Looking forward to seeing you all soon.

~ Emilia & Lily ~

Sometimes, I love the outtakes as much as the formal portraits. Emilia and Lily always crack me up. They were really having fun.

~ Isaac ~
Remember this strong little man? It just amazed me how fast kids grow.

~ David & Elsa ~

We reserved some time for a session within a session for little Elsa. She is one adorable 8 months old. Love her little swirl on her forehead. I heard that her older brother, David got that "superman" swirl too when he was a baby.

The Lo Family

I was back to OC again for the holiday family portrait sessions. This family was super cute. The little 4-year old was so energetic. He disappeared from the frame before I counted to 2. He was such a funny little guy to work with. Here are some of my favorites.

halloween 2009

We had such a great time having Chloe and Noelle to join us for an early Halloween Party. Evan was so adorable in his costume with a huge belly, wobbling like a drunken dinosaur.

Noelle's grandma tailored made an "Alice" costume for Noelle. She looked so cute with a little black bow on her curly blonde hair. Chloe totally got into her character of Snow White, reaching out for apples whenever she saw one.

We have enough apples to share but apples in other's hands are always sweeter and crispier. =)

isaac | strong little man

We almost gave up on this because we arrived after the park closed. Isaac's dad, Peter dropped us off at the Abalone Cove Shoreline Park and found street parking a mile away. Peter is one super daddy!

Isaac was able to play at the beach for a while before the sunset. We had a great time. Isaac was one cheerful strong little man, moving heavy rocks around. He even ran up to the life guard tower visiting the life guard on duty.

second before Isaac dropped the stone on my feet. He almost got me =)

Thanks for hanging out with me. Mommy Beverly, I'll see you in a couple months for your *special* session. I'm excited as you are.

books arrived!

I was so excited when I received Mylien and Nick's press print book. I had designed a custom made guest signature book that contains a collection of their engagement photo session. The guests are invited to write their best wishes and advices on the book at the wedding ceremony/reception. If you are looking for an alternative guest signature book for your wedding, this is one great and meaningful option.

The layout and wordings are totally customizable. The book is in 8x10, 4-color printing on 100 lb silk finish paper with black linen hardcover and laminated 4-color dust jacket. Additional sizes are available.

The little 7x7 photo album for Noelle had arrived at the same time as well. It is so cute. Slightly different from the Mylien and Nick's guest signature book, Noelle's book is in photo-wrapped hard cover.
