Ava, Bryce & Gavin: One Year Later | Atlanta & Los Angeles Child Photographer

Angela — Mon, 04 May 2009 03:27:23 +0000

Last year about this time I had this wonderful client family that had a gorgeous three year old little girl named Ava. They were expecting identical twin boys just a few weeks after I did their maternity session and I was lucky enough to get to go back for the newborn session. This is one gorgeous family y’all (see the southerner in me is creeping back in to my daily vocabulary)! Not only are they beautiful but they are such a wonderful sweet and loving family and I was thrilled when they hired me again this year when I was in LA. Miss Ava has grown in to a confident and spirited four year old who loves Hello Kitty and being silly and the boys, oh my goodness what a difference a year makes. These two little heart breakers who were so tiny the last time I saw them, were now busy one year olds that cried when I started to leave. Yes it’s true they cried when I was leaving. Oh how they melted my heart.

Here is what they looked like this time last year:

Here they are just one year later:

Carson: One Year Later | Atlanta & Los Angeles Baby Photographer

Carson is another one of my adorable little Los Angeles clients that just turned one. I have big plans for Carson, he just doesn’t know it yet. I’ve decided that he is going to marry Quinlan (see the blog post prior to this one) and I’m going to photograph my first ever wedding when their big day happens. Carson & Quinlan’s parents are friends so I think it would work out quite nicely! Carson is such a little cutie pie and like Quinlan he isn’t walking yet but he’s so close. His Dad has this really cool old Jeep that he restored and you know I had to incorporate that in to our session. Carson’s mom has this amazing eye for detail and decorating, their home has so many great spots (we really took advantage of that with his newborn session). This time we spent a lot of time outdoors since Carson is on the move. It was so great seeing them again, such an awesome family that I adore.

Quinlan: One Year Later | Atlanta & Los Angeles Baby Photographer

I just returned home this evening from a wonderful week in Los Angeles. While there I had the opportunity to photograph many of my sweet little clients from last year that I first met as newborns and have all recently turned one.

My first stop was Redondo Beach to photograph sweet baby Quinlan. She is not quite walking yet but it won’t be long (look out R & T!). The minute you walk in to the door she smiles and giggles and just melts your heart with her GORGEOUS blue eyes. I’m telling you folks, no Photoshopping on her eyes, they really are that blue. It is so much fun seeing how much she has grown in the past year, I was so excited when her parents asked me to come back again this year. I’ll confess to loving them as well, even though her Dad likes to make fun of me for going to see New Kids on the Block while I was in LA.

Yoohoo Los Angeles…

I’m headed your way for spring portrait shoots April 17-22. I have one, possibly two spots available, the rest are all spoken for. Give me a shout via email if you are interested, just click the contact link at the top of the blog and enter your info!

While I have your attention, check out our newest family member. Her name is Ripley! Isn’t she a cutie pie? She likes to eat sticks and random things, so it looks like here she was chowing down on some tasty spider webs and I caught her red handed, look how guilty she looks. She is allegedly part beagle part dachshund, but I’m not so sure about that.

A Golden Day | Los Angeles Children’s Photographer

When I was in Los Angeles a couple of weeks ago I saw many of my wonderful repeat clients and a few new ones too. The day that I visited the W family in Manhattan Beach we were surrounded by the Los Angeles fires to the north, south and east of us. The sky was orange and everything was glowing and it made it really hot, it sure didn’t feel like November, more like July.

I think this is the fourth time I’ve photographed these kids and I just love them, they are so much fun and it’s neat to see how much they change each time I see them. Little Miss A was just learning to sit up when I first met her and now she’s a toddler, time sure does fly. Here are a few from our afternoon together.

Turning Three | Los Angeles Children’s Photographer

Angela — Tue, 18 Nov 2008 06:27:25 +0000

I’m back here in Atlanta safe and sound after spending the last week shooting in Los Angeles. I sure missed my husband and my children, and while I do love LA it is great to be back to my new home Atlanta. I have some emails to catch up on, so if you are waiting on one from me, I’ll be responding asap! It was awesome to see some of my LA clients again. Many of them I’ve had the pleasure of seeing every year since they were brand new babies!

Miss M has been a client of mine for three years now. It’s always so neat to see my little clients each year and to see how much they’ve grown since our last portrait session. Last year at this time she was shy, quiet and very reserved, this year she was spunky, talkative and so silly, we had a great time. She had a very special birthday party this weekend too, so this past week was very busy for her.

I’ll be sharing some sneak peeks of my California clients all this week. Here are a few from my morning with sweet little Miss M.
