One of my favorite party of 3′s has grown into a family of 4! Check out baby Ava’s newborn session (and très chic nursery).

Mona & Sanjay spent their babymoon in Paris, inspiring the Paris themed nursery. J’adore!

Mona

le sigh…

What a sleepy baby!

and a happy one too :-)

Outfit change!

This is what a proud papa looks like:

So cute!

Adorable, aren’t they?

Fresh Air

Devan – because all new big brothers should have their moment in the spotlight too:

Hey everyone! I hope you’re enjoying summer and spending lots of time at the beach, lake, pool or whatever floats your surfboard :-) I’m having a busy summer with weddings, newborns, oh and kids who are not at camp this year (hmm, what was I thinking?!). Just wanted to get this sneak peek posted for my very special clients, Verenice & Angel, who have made me feel like I’m part of the family. I love that! Baby Sebastian was born a few weeks ago and I was so happy to once again have the opportunity to record such a special time in their lives. I can already tell that they are going to be wonderful parents. Sebastian is a lucky little boy!

Baseball gloves are the new receiving blankets, haven’t ya heard? :-)

He has the cutest lips:

And is a great sleeper:

TLC from Mommy:

Daddy time:

Love that nursery:

Sebastian got a little curious and decided to take a peek at what was going on:

Then it was back to doing what babies do best:

Sweet dreams, Sebastian!

Last Saturday I made my way back to the Fullerton Trail where I was happily reunited with a lovely couple whose wedding I shot last August.  Verenice and Angel are expecting their first baby this summer and I was so excited when Verenice got in touch with me to photograph her maternity session.  She said she wanted something outdoors in nature and I couldn’t think of a more perfect spot – at sunset no less!  We had a wonderful time leisurely strolling the trail, which was really nice considering the last time I photographed them, we were on a tight wedding schedule with little time to dilly dally (yes, I just said that).  It was great getting to know more about this loving couple who will soon be loving parents!  Verenice and Angel, thank you for letting me be part of yet another very special time in your lives.  I am beyond honored.  :-)  Hope you love these as much as I do…

The beautiful mommy-to-be:

The handsome daddy-to-be:

Soon to be a party of three:

Verenice is a trooper! I dragged her down the trails so we could get to this spot (totally worth it!):

So in love:

Hottie mommy:

Taking a break:

Breathtaking:

When I met up with Siddhant and his parents last Sunday at the Fullerton train station, I knew we were going to have a great session. Sid was all smiles and his parents, Anju and Suneet, were completely at ease. It’s so nice when that happens! We played around at the station and then ventured out into downtown Fullerton. I won’t go into too much detail, but let’s just say the downtown scene on a Sunday evening is way more entertaining than you might imagine. ;-) Anyway, it’s late and I have an early morning appointment with some kindergartners, so let’s move on to the photos! Anju, Suneet and Sid, thanks for all the fun! Enjoy your sneak peek!

Big smiles right from the start:

More proof of how funny I am:

What a handsome guy!

What good is a photo shoot at the train station without a train?

And the obligatory crossbuck sign (bet you didn’t know that’s what they call that thing!):

Every mom should have a photo like this:

Dads too:

Someone sneakin’ a peek as I photographed mom and dad:

Another happy ending :-)
