A couple days before I left out of town on vacation I met up with this gorgeous family at the beautiful Kendall Jackson Winery. It was my very first time going there and I’d have to say its so much more beautiful than I had imagined. Mom and dad wanted to have their first family photo to follow up to Baby J’s newborn session we had just a few weeks earlier. He was such a champ and even smiled for the absolutely perfect family photo. We couldn’t have planned for this even if we tried.

Clearly this little guy is adored by his parents and how can you resist this face.

Another beautiful beautiful momma, this time expecting a baby boy. I met with Monica and her little girl just before I left out of town on vacation for 3 weeks and the night I came home her precious little boy was welcomed into this world. Huge congratulations to Monica and her family.

I had so much fun photographing with this adorable little girl again. Her mom got her all dressed up for the 4th of July and gave photos as gifts for daddy and grandpa who is a veteran.

Finally I am getting a chance to catch up a little on my blog posts. With all the craziness that comes with going on a long vacation I just now taking a break to share Clare’s gorgeous photos. We got together just weeks before her precious baby girl was born. Doesn’t she look beautiful?

Her hubby came down to get in a few photos too. They are such a good looking couple.

More photos are posted on the Facebook fan page ;)

Another precious little guy. Baby P was just 2 weeks old when I met him for his newborn photos. Even though most my tiny little clients seem to fuss at the beginning of our sessions, they all seem to finally get into the grove of things and are happy as can be.

Here are a few of my favs from our session together.

So tiny hanging onto daddy’s finger.

Happy Father’s Day

June 20, 2010

To all the dads, Happy Father’s Day!!! I hope you all are having a wonderful day.

In honor of this special day I want to share a few of the other photos taken last month from Todd and Trianna’s session; one of the photos made the cover of Sonoma Family Life Magazine and MendoLake Family Life Magazine.

If you have followed my blog over the years, you already know Trianna makes frequent appearances.  Lucky for me her parents love to have her photo taken often and Trianna loves to be in front of the camera. When the opportunity came up to submit a photo for the Sonoma Family Life Magazine June Issue, I was very happy that Todd and Trianna were available for a very last minute session.

There were so many great photos I don’t think I have a personal favorite but I do have to chuckle every time I look at the “cover shot” because the smile on Todd’s face is priceless. Its a result of that special bond between father and daughter combined with wet kisses LOL

So tiny and sweet, one of my favorite things about working with newborns is listing to all the little grunts and sounds they make as they try to settle down just before falling asleep. This precious little guy is just two weeks old and even though he was such a sleepy boy he showed his little smiled.

I am so excited to share the news that Becka Lynn Photography is this month’s cover photo of the June issue of Sonoma Family Life Magazine and MedoLake Family Life Magazine. Huge thank you to Todd Dingman and his beautiful daughter Trianna for helping make this possible.  It is clear Trianna is daddy’s girl and I am so excited to see them on the cover.

You can pick up a copy of the Sonoma Family Life magazine at local news stands throughout Sonoma and you can see the digital copy here.

Today the beautiful Miss Desa is celebrating her 21st birthday. I little over a month ago Desa contacted me to inquire about a boudoir session as a special gift for herself as a way to celebrate her birthday and remember her youth. What started as one session ultimately turned into three which lasted all day and was a ton of fun. Looking back now I wish this was something I would have thought to do myself when I was her age. I’m sure this will be something she can look back on for many years to come with fond memories.

Our first session was to show her softer more intimate side so we started with her boudoir photos in a studio style setting.

Our next session took us to my favorite creek for Marilyn Monroe inspired session with a touch of fashion and nature.

And finally we headed out to the Santa Rosa bunkers for the vixen, kick ass and urban style photos.

This by far is one of the funnest boudoir style sessions I have had the opportunity to work on. I am honored that Desa allowed me to share this special day with her and she was so open to new ideas. It was quite the adventure and I’d love to do something like this again.

Desa, I hope you have a fabulous birthday today. Thank you again for allowing me to share some of your amazing photos publicly on the blog. You were an absolute joy to work with and I have enjoyed getting to know you over the last couple months.

I have had the pleasure of working with this beautiful girl for 3 years now.  Luckily her parent’s like to find any excuse to get together for photos and Trianna is always a willing model when I have projects to work on.

Its been a super crazy month and I am a little (or a lot) back logged in my blog posts but I am nearly caught up woohoo!! Back in March we headed down to one of my favorite locations for Trianna’s birthday photos. Her oh so talented mom made this awesome denim tutu skirt especially for her session and then brought balloons to match.
