Being goofy runs in this family

I adore my goofy families. They make me giggle for the whole session. Its either the kids being goofy or the parents. I love it either way! I know the Santana family from my oldest daughters school. We met up at Seaport Village for some goofyness! This princess loves to see herself in the camera.... 019A Can you tell who is goofy?? Between the princess and her daddy... 047A The boys asked me if they could climb the tree..I am all for FUN! 054A They melt my heart... 086A Thank you "T" for letting me capture your FUN family!

Christmas with the Sandoval family

Can you imagine I am almost up to date with photos now plus blogging them. Mom called me in the middle of December to come and do some Christmas/Santa photos at their produce store. Dad was going to be Santa for an event they were having so we got him into the suit 2 times. It was great and what a wonderful sport he was!

We saw Mommy kissing Santa claus...

Let's meet the Franco family

I have known the mom since High School and now both of us have 2 little kids. Hers are smaller than mines so I enjoyed playing with them. Little ones are great but big ones are awesome too!
Mom wanted more grass and cool buildings. So we went in the back part of Chula Vista.

Introducing the Franco's

Shyness to bursting with smiles

Oh gosh, I am so behind on blogging and getting sneak peeks up for my awesome families. I am several weeks behind on photos. I am going to try and get them all done this month in March!
It's going to be a GREAT 2011!

The 1st time I took photos of this cute little family. Little lady was so shy and didn't want to be in front of my camera. But this time around, WOW it was totally different and she loved it...

I have never seen such beautiful dark brown eyes...

Mother and Daughter love cannot be beat!

I got referred to "A" from a friend in High School. They came all the way from Jamul to take photos at Balboa Park one early morning. We met @ 830am and those girls were ready to rock and roll. I love watching kids with their moms. It is such a fulfilling job!

How cute are they..

Most of our session was us being monkeys or running around so I finally got her to sit for a little while.....

Boys are so quiet compared to girls....

I love having sessions with little dudes because they are so quiet but so much fun at the same time. It is amazing how different it is. I mostly photograph girls so when Moms call me with boys its fantastic.

I met this mom from a friend in high school and she wanted something different. So we headed up to the La Jolla Lighthouse. It was such a great view and perfect lighting!

Momma and her little men....

Let's meet the Elkinton family

I met this lovely family at my daughters school. Momma is a 2nd grade teacher there and she rocks the joint! I hope my daughter gets her because I love her in class policies and being strict is awesome!

We were really up in the air about where to go because she wanted a change in scenery so I went out and started looking around. I found this really neat woodsy area near our homes! It's behind a park and down a hill and it worked great!

Handsome boys....."J" goes to my daughters school and little "C" is in preschool almost into kindergarten...
005A

"C" couldn't wait till we had FUN....

Look at the Cox family

I have known the Cox family since there little guy was 1 year old and now he is in Kindergarten. It has been great watching our kids grow up and each of us have 2 now :)

I have been looking all over for a woodsy style photo session and the Cox family was all for the adventure with me. We had a ball even when it was freezing outside. But you can hardly tell it was cold here in Chula Vista.

Finally a serious one after me playing around with them....
055A

Jumping is what we do when the kids start to get bored or tired of smiling..this cheers them up!

And the bridge is great and the kids loved running around so we stopped them when we were ready to rock n roll.
