Clayton James ::: 1.14.10

Posted on January 18, 2010

A little while back I posted maternity photos of Justin and Sandra, who are Lindsay and I’s really good friends.  We have been SO excited for them to have their baby.  There is this love for your own child the moment they come into this world that you can’t explain to someone, it is something you only get when they are your own. You fall in love with their little fingers and toes, and all the little funny newborn sounds, everything about them is perfect to you.

Sandra was such a rockstar during labor, and Justin was an amazing coach!  Lindsay and I went to the hospital early in the morning on the 14th, and she had already been in labor for about 10 hours, so we thought that Clayton would be born soon after-wrong! He was born at 10:30pm, a 24 hour labor! We are so glad you are here Clayton! We can’t wait to raise our families together!

Sarah + Kieth ::: Having a Baby!

Posted on December 30, 2009

I love that I get to document some of the most special and exciting times in people’s lives. In photographing weddings, family and friends come together to celebrate two people’s love for one another. Everyone is dressed up, everyone is happy,  and I get to capture all those special moments. Then there’s maternity photos. Having a new baby myself, I know how exciting this stage in life is and it is so fun to document. Here are a few from a very sweet couple!

Maternity Photos on Polaroid

Posted on December 20, 2009

I had a fun shoot today for Sarah and Kieth who are due to have their little boy soon! I wanted to give a small peek at the shoot from what I shot on my old Polaroid camera. I had practically considered this camera decoration after Polaroid went out of business but recently found some sites selling older Polaroid film. I love how these came out. Do you like the look?? What are your thoughts on Polaroids?

Justin + Sandra

Posted on December 3, 2009

Justin and Sandra are really good friends of ours, pretty much family to us, and we are SO excited for them as they anticipate the birth of their son Clayton James.  I love the cowboy hats because Justin is a country boy a heart who loves to hunt, fish, camp and all that stuff, and well Sandra just looks good in the hat, AND with a name like Clayton James you have to wonder if he will be some rockstar cowboy himself.  You guys are going to be such great parents, the little guy has no idea how lucky he is to be born to parents that love each other so well.  We are looking forward to raising our boys together. Only one more month!!

So we are at the T-minus 2 week phase of our pregnancy and our little boy could be born any day. We’re both so excited!!

I wanted to post this fun photo of Lindsay I took while we were scouting some LA locations. Any Elliott Smith fans out there? This is the same wall from his Figure 8 album cover. Isn’t she cute?!

Lindsay Pregnant on Polaroids

I’ve had a couple engagement shoots back to back which will be posted soon but wanted to share a couple photos of my mom to be! One of our shoots was up in Lake Arrowhead out in the woods. We showed up a little early for the shoot and decided to play around with some black and white Polaroids (actually Fuji now) shot with my old Hasselblad. I love how these came out!

Kris and Cara :: Having a Baby!

Posted on August 29, 2008

Last week, I got to shoot some photos of some good friends of mine before their 1st little baby is born. We went to a couple locations and came up with some beautiful photos. Who ever said you can’t look good and pregnant???

Kris has his own wine label called Las Olas. We did some good sampling after the shoot. If you’re in California, start asking your local restaurants if they carry his wine. It’s sooo good.
