For Andi & Misha’s half baked (there’s a baby in that cute lil belly!) session, I told them I wanted them to exist. Not pose. Just exist. Photos come off so natural when you just connect with each other vs be posed into everything. It’s my job to tell you what to do and I do have clients where every single photo I have posed them down to the hands lol.

Doing those things will never get your child to stand & smile anyway. They […]

This gorgeous family had their session booked with me when mama was 37 weeks pregnant. We showed up to their session and the location they had chosen was completely unusable. It was one of the worst moments in my entire career as a photographer! I frantically text my husband and he found me a back up location. We only had 20 min to do their session and the photos somehow turned out amazing, but I still felt horrible mama didn’t get to change into this outfit with her bump out! I then travelled to Los Angeles for photoshoots, and begged […]
