It’s true this little boy has a special place in my heart. If you’ve been following this blog for a while you’ll know that my husband and I set Deagon’s parents up on somewhat of a blind date. His dad worked with my husband and his mama is one of my many beautiful cousins. I photographed their wedding, their family and maternity session, Deagon’s newborn session, and now his first birthday session. Yeah, I’m kinda attached
Here are some of my favorite shots– with a cake smash coming soon
Enjoy!

I absolutely LOVE this time of year. Southern Riverside county has cooled down, holiday decorations and music are making their debuts, and families sessions are filling my weekends. It get’s me so excited for Christmas (only 41 days to go)!
This cheery family met me in Old Town Temecula and let me tell you, four year olds are awesome. Especially this little lady. She had SO much energy and kept me on my toes. There’s really never a dull moment when you have little ones this age. They’re so fun! Mom was worried that we didn’t get many good shots between the crazy faces and the tongue sticking out– but rest assured, mama, we got lots
Here are a couple shots from our session toegther– enjoy!

Yesterday I spent time with an amazing family to photograph their new baby boy, Cruz, at 9 days old. It’s totally obvious that mom and dad are just smitten by him– how could you not be? I’ll admit, this sweet baby made me work for my money. He was adamant about staying in his parents’ arms but we did manage to get some great shots all by his lonesome
And if you’re wondering, yes, these photos totally make me miss the days when my son was a newborn (sleeplessness and all). I’d like to push the rewind button for just one day
Enjoy this sneak peek of baby Cruz! I’ll be sharing more next week on the Facebook page, so be sure to head over there and click “like”!
I love love green and brown. I use this color combo at least once on every newborn. Notice how long baby is– 22 inches at birth
