Dressed up to fit into a fairy tale these 3 year old twins make the most adorable princess and prince charming. This little prince is a model so was a pro during our session. His sister on the other hand was a bit shy but by the time we were finished we were close buddies and both walked me to my car holding my hands. I was even given a beautiful pink rose which still sits on my kitchen table in a vase. They both were an absolute joy to photograph and I really did have lots of fun.

October 28, 2008

My favorite holiday in the year is just 3 days away. Unfortunately there is a slight chance of rain this year so I am glad I got a chance to see some adorable kiddos in their costume over the weekend.

Julian at Oluf Pumpkin Patch

October 26, 2008

And finally there was this little guy who was having a blast with all the pumpkins. I think if he could have carried them all home he would have.

Next up was this adorable little guy. Poor this was so ready for a nap but still was the sweetest ever. Luckily I caught him before he crashed.

Halloween is less than a week away and its my favorite time of the year. Its been pretty warm here in Sonoma County so its a great time to be out in the pumpkin patch. I had a chance to hang out with these 3 little guys joined me at Oluf’s Pumpkin Patch for some mini sessions.

First up is my buddy Kail. He is a super fast runner but took the time to pause for a moment in the corn.

Right as I was getting ready to leave Kail took off again for the corn. He totally wore me out as I chased him as he ran back and forth from one end to the other. I bet that was a sight to see LOL

Caught in the Moment

October 21, 2008

With my mom visiting all last week I didn’t much computer time, not that its a bad thing though because it was absolutely awesome to have a chance to spend some time with my mom, but now I find myself trying to catch up on what I missed last week. I have a few special photos I wanted to share though.

On our way home from San Francisco after spending the morning on Alcatraz we decided to make a stop at Fort Point which sits right below the South San Francisco Side of the Golden Gate Bridge. Of course I had to shoot a couple pics of my gorgeous girls.

My girls ~ You can really see each one of their personalities. I love it how different they are from each other.

The next day we headed back to SF to meet with my brother for a late lunch/early dinner at Bubba Gump before he caught his flight home.

As we waited for our food my brother braided K’s hair and then braided his own so they could match On our drive down K made her uncle a special card. These pics were taken just after he read it.

Can you tell how much these two love each other? They really do have a special bond.

At the end of the week we took a trip to St. Helena to visit Grandpa and have some ice cream at the Big Dipper.

And I saved the best for last…. He looks adorable with his ice cream cone.

For the past 7 years I have made my annual trip to Alcatraz with my family for the Sunrise Gathering. Over the years my family has grown and we always look forward to sharing some of my heritage with my girls as well as be able to participate in a sacred ceremony such as this. This year was extra special since both my mom and brother flew up from LA so that they can come with us to the rock.

Here are a couple photos of the Aztec Dancers from the ceremony who began just as the sun began to rise.

The Drummer begins before the dancers enter the circle.

The dancers enter by circling the sacred fire

If you have not had a chance I highly recommend everyone attending a Sunrise Gathering on the rock at least once. Its worth it to get up super early in the morning and I can guarantee it will be an experience you will never forget.

Brothers and a sister

October 17, 2008

A friend of mine has 4 awesome kids and they were a total joy to photograph. We took a trip down the family property which belongs to the grandparents of the 2 youngest kiddos.

He is such a handsome boy and is going to make the girls go wild one day.

One of my favorite shots of the day.

I have tried time and time again to get siblings to give each other a hug for a special shot for the parents and even with my own kids its not an easy task. These two adorable kiddos was a completely different story and you can see how close they are to one another.

His grandpa gave him this tractor. You can clearly see how much he loves it.

This beauty you have seen before :) I caught this shot as she was checkout out what her brothers were doing.

Yes i know, its full sun but this is one of my favorites.

With any luck this will be me one day except I will have 3 girls and 1 boy…or at least I hope :)
