Favorite 9 of 2009

WOW, this one was very hard for me. YIKES! Most photographers pick out some of their favorites. I began this fun journey in March and have met so many GREAT families and their kids. This ROCKS!! I never thought taking photographs would be so rewarding.

Now down for business...here are 9 of my favorite photos/poses.....



















I hope everyone has a VERY HAPPY NEW YEAR! and make 2010 the best to come.
Thank you to all my clients for letting me capture your family memories!

Merry Christmas 2009

I know I am a couple of days late but better late than never, right?

Our girls had a great Christmas and Santa was good to them. They love going to Nana/Welo's house and then off to Pop-pop's as well.

I did manage to get some photos. You would think my kids would sit and look and smile. NOPE, lots of bribes....



And our home during Christmas time....



I hope everyone has a WONDERFUL 2010. Be on the lookout for some more posts!

Thank you to all my clients that made my 1st year of photography great!

Happy Holidays from the Hobb Family

First off, I am sorry for not keeping up with my blog. Sorry BLOG! I have over 5 families to show off but I always give my highlight ones a couple of days!!

I get to see little "T" every 3 months to capture her milestones or to see how much she has grown. So in this blog I am going to share her 6 month photos and her 1st Christmas ones as well. They were taken 1 week apart so why not show together.

We met in Balboa park for her 6th month photos because she is working on sitting up so Mom and Dad thought it would be good practice for her....

Brown eyed beauty...


"T" did get some assistant from the Bumbo seat...but still look cute!


Finally, we put her on her belly and she was happy!!


Christmas time this year for the Hobb family is going to be FANTASTIC. The 1st Christmas is always so special. I hope you all have a great day!

Mommy time..


My favorite ones of "T" are all the up close ones because I love her skin color and her beautiful eyes...


Finally....

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!


Thanks again, see you all in February!

Happy Holidays from the RICE

I got the pleasure to meet up with the RICE complete family and meet Dad! We had a great time at Balboa park for their annual Christmas Photos. I cannot believe how much "S" has grown and is walking all over now. It was fantastic.

These 2 little girls are great together and they are sisters!


HAPPY 1st BIRTHDAY "S"...you rock.....


And finally the RICE family....NO this isn't the Christmas card.


Thank you "J" and "S" for letting me meet up again with you guys!

Extra, Extra 3 blonde beauties for the Compton Family

I got the pleasure to photograph 3 beautiful/handsome blonde kids. It was such a pleasure with these kiddos. We headed to Balboa park and it was a crowded day but I still managed not to get anyone else in the photo!

Each kiddo had their own expression for me....



Mom asked me to take pictures in the same place they took their wedding photos...


What a nice looking family!

Sisterly love is something I love to capture!



How can I let this man not mention! he was such a little ham..

Happy Halloween 2009

Happy Halloween to everyone. I hope everyone had a nice time trick or treating and got lots of YUMMY candy.

We spent yesterday at home carving all of our pumpkins. Kylee really got into carving put would not touch the inside of the pumpkin not even close. Here she is pretending to remove the insides...



Keyana wouldn't come close to the pumpkins so I managed to get a relly cute photo of my little cutie pie..



Trick or Treat time and some of her friends came over to join her & Keyana. We had a GREAT time with "M" & "T"



Our favorite pumpkin.....looks awesome!!!!



HAPPY November 1st to everyone!! Almost CHRISTMAS time.

Happy 5th birthday to my sweet Kylee

I am a little late posting this. I am about 4 family photo shoots behind but I would like to post some photos of my baby girl turning 5 years old. She was born on October 20, 2004 @ 1201pm after 33 hours of labor!

Kylee Christine 5 years old today.....I remember as it was yesterday when you were born!



If you ask her how she wants to pose...this is what you will get or a princess pose...I just love the smile on her face...



We had a birthday party for her this past weekend, I will post those really soon. I also have some Bates Nut Farm photos, Apple picking and Disneyland for her actual birthday to post! I am sorry for being so behind :(

2 week old sweetness! Maher family

I got the pleasure to photograph little "C" glowing Mommy @ Hotel Del. She is 2 weeks old here and is such a doll!

They live in the cutest little house in Coronado with perfect flooring...And Mom wanted to put "C" in her favorite pail....



We had to interrupt Daddy from working to take this photo...look how comfy she looks in his arms...



Don't you just want to squeeze these toes...



Thank you "L" and "C" for welcoming me into your home.
Hope you enjoyed the CD with photos.

What a Handsome DUDE!!

I got the pleasure to photograph this handsome dude. I really don't get to photograph little boys. I have only had maybe a handful of them. So when I get little boys, I love it :)

Such a ham each time I pointed my camera directly towards him....



When I asked him, what type of pose would you like? This is what I got..



I love this photo for several reasons....can anyone tell me??



Thank you T for choosing me to photograph your little prince!

Sneak Peek for the Schultz

I am extremely behind on posting photos from my recent photo shoot. These photos are from the last week in September. They have been done and waiting to be posted...

Sorry to all my followers and readers who look for recent photo shoots or idea for where they should have their photo shoots.

I love the expressions of these cute little angels. It amazes me each time when they are so different in so many ways....


Don't you just want to squeeze these cheeks of hers....


A Mom's job is never done and most of the time, we MOMS look like this trying to get our kids to listen during a photo shoot...


Thank you Karrie for letting me capture some precious moments between your kids and you. I glad I found you through the playgroup!

Twins, twins and more TWINS

I got pleasure to photograph a pregnant mom with TWIN BOYS! I was super excited. And I get to meet them in 4 short weeks. I have fun on all my photo shoots but this one was beyond fantastic. Daddy was so much fun in many ways. I was laughing and giggling the complete time. I kept telling him he needed to stop so my photos won't come blurry.

It was very hard for me to pick photos because I promised Mom no bare bellies and the ones I took of her bare belly were great but I have to keep my promise to my clients. So enough talking....look at these twin BOYS

I love this photo because it looks like her belly is as tall as the San Diego skyline....


Just us having a little fun instead of boring same shots....I try to come up with new poses each time.....



Another thing...look at the love in their eyes. I cannot wait to meet these little dudes....if they are like their dad....watch out!



I don't normally tease but this one is different...they are keeping the names from everyone until they are born!! GUESS WHAT....I know them :)
Sorry "L" I cannot tell you!

Newborn sweetness

I have been so behind on updating my blog here with my recent photo shoots. I am sorry for lacking in this department.

I got the pleasure to go back and meet little "T". She is the sweetest baby and was super tiny. I love holding the baby while the parents get ready or settled...

Look at this 2 week old little princess. I love her bow!


Mommy and baby share a sweet moment....



Quiet is what we were saying, it took us sometime to get her sleeping and once we did. Mom and Dad got some real nice photos of the darling...

In between Dad & Mom's hands...what little feet will grow into this beautiful girl



Thank you for letting me come into your home a couple of weeks ago. I hope you are enjoying your CD!

Fun times all over again with the Davis Fam

I am always asking myself "why do I get such great families, cute kids and everyone wanting to have FUN". I am super lucky being able to have fun and meet new people each time I have a photo shoot.

I got to take pictures again for Little and Big M and we had so much fun this time around. Lil M was a little shy with me until I told him about my surprise for him.

How can you resist smiling back at these cute little boys....



I always ask the parents to give each other little kisses and this is what the boys thought about it...



Lastly, a very beautiful family photo @ Presidio Park



Thanks M & E for letting me take photos again. I will see you real soon for our christmas photo shoot.
