November | Long Beach baby photographer

November was so insanely busy for me doing client shoots, that I barely picked up my camera for Evangeline. Now I feel guilty. I have tons of iphone photos which are posted daily on my instagram, but I guess I need to get out my big camera more! She has been using her potty since 13 months! She goes whenever we put her on it. It’s pretty amazing.

Evangeline’s 1st birthday | Los Angeles birthday party photographer

Evangeline absolutely loved her 1st birthday party. She loved it so much she never took a nap that day! She ended up passing out for the night around 6pm though. Party animal! She had a joint birthday party with her cousin Oliver who is two weeks younger than her. As you will see in the photos, she loved her cousin. The photos of her kissing him are pretty hysterical. Thank you to everyone who came and made her party so special!

Evangeline week fifty two | Long Beach baby photographer

This is such a bittersweet post! I can’t believe I have a walking one year old now! Yes, Evangeline took her first steps on her birthday! It was amazing enough she walked on her actual birthday, but she did it right after my husband came home from work and we were both in the same room. It was like she was waiting to show us! For her birthday we surprised her with a fort for her room! The next day we headed to Northern California to hang out with family and have her 1st birthday party. Her party photos I […]

Evangeline week fifity one | Long Beach baby photographer

I never want to forget the way she whined every single morning before swim class. Pulling at my dress and having “roll abouts.” I never want to forget the way she passed out on her own before swim class and we ended up missing class that day. Sleep is more important than swimming. I never want to forget the way she hands us books to read to her with that shoulder shrug. I never want to forget her pebbles hair. I never want to forget her mean girl Russian face that stops both of us in our tracks in fear. […]

Evangeline week fifty | Long Beach baby photographer

This is the week of passionate kisses and cuddles. She loves to wrap her arms around my neck and passionately kiss me. She loves to say “hiiii baby!” She has been sleeping on her twin mattress this week. When she wakes up and cries, I go into her room and lay on her bed. She shockingly doesn’t try and nurse, she just wants me to hold her. It’s seriously the sweetest thing I’ve ever experienced in my life. The first night on her mattress she slept till 4am but the last few nights she wakes often and we end up […]

Evangeline week forty nine | Long Beach baby photographer

Evangeline loves having her own room! I caught her in a hilarious game of peekaboo with the neighbor. I think she has a crush. I had a family shoot at the Orange County Fair this week and she got to come with and look at all the people and animals. She had ice cream and took photos in the photobooth with mama and papa. She also got her second cold ever this week. I thought we would make it to one year with only being sick once, but my aunt came to see our house and brought a cold along […]
