The Photographer’s Child…

My clients are always commenting to me and saying that I must have tons of beautiful images of my own children. HA! My kids take off running the minute I bring out the camera and now I have proof to show you what happens.

This little video clip is from Disneyland the other day, now I was only carrying my tiny point and shoot camera so you can imagine how bad it is when I break out the DSLRs.

My poor poor tortured child and OMG my voice sounds not like it does in my head.  Icck! LOL

A familar face

Now most of my existing clients know that during the week I’m busy playing with toys.  Yep, I get to photograph toys and children for catalogs.  This evening I stopped playing with toys and one of my favorite little clients came by my office so that I could shoot some new stuff for her modeling/acting portfolio.  She just finished filming her first movie, it’s due out next year and I’m so excited for her.  She has the sweetest little heart and she’s such a smart cookie too! Our mission today was to get some shots of her various looks.  Typically for my model clients I don’t crop in quite so close like I did on a couple of these, but just for my website and blog I like to get in close, I love connecting with children and I love how personal a close crop is.

 

Oh the weather outside is frightful…

Seriously. Can I wish for snow for Los Angeles? Who do I need to chat with to make this happen? Mother Nature, are you listening to me? It’s your dear friend Los Angeles Children’s Photographer Angela Calderon calling. Can you hear me now? What about now? It was 108 today according to the outside thermometer on my car.

What makes a hot day better? Meeting two new little friends. This afternoon I spent some time with two sweet little ones and their parents here in Los Angeles. I heard through the grapevine that after I left they were going to get slurpees! I think that’s a great idea to beat the heat.

These two little ones were total cutie pies. Here are a couple of shots of my time with them today so you can see for yourself how sweet they are! Thank you so much to their Mom & Dad for welcoming me to their home today!

Double the fun…

Yesterday I had a session with a 18 month old set of twins, a soon to be four year old and their Mom & Dad. We had so much fun, we started with a dance party, then we had a musical jam session, and we ended our day with a water balloon fest! Now I know how I sometimes have a hard time wrangling my two children, but these parents were pros with three. Not only that, they were so beautiful and you can see where their children got their good looks.

Here’s my new little buddy Mr. C, Happy Early Birthday! I hope it’s a good one!

And the twins…

Now you know I couldn’t resist putting my logo on the drum set right? Yes I’m a nerd! ;-) Check out how serious he was while drumming. Toddlers Rock!

This is probably one of my favorite shots of the day. I love how they each have a foot raised…

Thank you to the L Family for welcoming me in to your home, I had a wonderful time!

It’s great to be a kid

Summer is here, time for popsicles, swimming pools, the beach and bicycles. What makes that even better? Being able to ride your bike with your favorite pajamas and boots on without a care in the world. Check out my little pal Jacob who just learned how to ride his tricycle yesterday and I was able to capture it with my camera. How cute are those PJ’s he’s wearing? I think his mom told me that these boots are his sisters, but who cares, they match the bike and the PJ’s, he’s one hip little dude.
