I have been shooting this family for over 8 years now. Veronica’s parents happen to be my old neighbors and I have become their family photographer. I shot Veronica and Daniels Orange County wedding a few years ago and now they have a little one, so family shoots are next of course. This shoot was shot at the Fullerton Arboretum. I was personally married there over 12 years ago, so I most obviously LOVE shooting there. It is gorgeous for family, engagement shoots, bride and grooms, etc. A wonderful shoot, at a wonderful place, with a wonderful family! Thank you for the continued support in my photography work. I look forward to watching Dominic grow up!

First, I want to introduce my new Custom Blog. The entries are thumnailed, archived, and the blog is more searchable with larger images! I am very excited to launch this new custom blog although we are still working out kinks, updates, and adding music and movement to the photo galleries.

Thank you to all of my wonderful wedding clients who take the time to give me review on Wedding Wire. It is hard to get reviews as newly married couples are extremely busy, but luckily my brides and grooms are the coolest. I really am able to develop great relationships with my clients so they gladly leave me awesome reviews for Quality of Service, Responsiveness, Professionalism, Value, and Flexibility. I am very proud of the amount of reviews I have received, and even more happy that all of my clients have been happy, happy, happy. To date, after hundreds of weddings over the last decade, I have never had an unhappy bride! Please check out the link below to see what my clients have had to say about my work!

I have blogged so many photo shoots at this small park in Fullerton, California! It seems like most of my blogs have been here at this park lately, as I do mini shoot days here every few months and do 6-8 photo shoots back to back in one day. I have shot hundreds of shoots at this small secluded park and I know it now like the back of my hand. It is a great natural setting for family, pregnancy, engagement, and I have even shot many wedding shoots here. The park is rustic and often over grown and there is never anybody there. Enjoy this photo shoot of a long term client, I have shot every member of their family by now over the passed 8 years. Their kids are so stinkin’ cute that it was easy to capture great moments. I prefer to shoot candid, although I love stylized shoots too, but my personal style has always been to capture a family in their home or a natural setting and let the kids be themselves and the family sit together and capture what happens when they interact. Makes for great memories and real candid pictures to be cherished for decades to come.

As I have said in previous blogs, I do not specialize in baby photography, but most of my couples come back to me a year or two after being married for pregnancy and new baby shoots! I try my best to showcase the reality. I don’t use a lot of props or backdrops, I just keep it simple. I do think simple will last the test of time, black will never go out of style and neither will your baby! 🙂

I love this couple, they are so cool! Their wedding was over 4 years ago at Tustin Ranch Country Club in Southern California and they had no plans on having children. A year ago, the doctor told them that this was their last chance if they wanted to have a baby. After they thought about it, they decided to go for it. They are ecstatic on the birth of their new baby boy and they absolutely love his precious first pictures!

I take a portable studio to my clients home so everyone is comfy! Clients love this! They do not have to leave the house which is a huge ordeal especially for parents of their first baby. I set up a backdrop and lighting and we take our time, this is especially important for parents with many children or twins, where leaving the house the first or second week to go to a studio would sound like climbing Mt. Everest! Enjoy these 6 day old baby pics!

The City was looking for a local photographer with the skill and vision to convey the unique design elements of 3 dimensional sculpture in 2 dimensions.  Jaimee was more than qualified, warm, and enthusiastic about the somewhat daunting challenge of photographing approximately 100 of the nearly 150 sculptures throughout Brea.  She was also incredibly generous, donating her time to edit all of the photos.  On a personal note, it seemed to me that this project was a labor of love for Jaimee, not just another job.  This left a lasting impression, and it shows in the photographs.  The photos are used frequently as educational tools for the Art in Public Places Collection and to provide to members of the media.

The City of Brea in Orange County, California; has a city policy for over the last decade that any new development must have a sculpture or piece of artwork. The city boasts nearly 150 amazing sculptures and works of art from all different artists. It adds character to this amazing “small town” feeling bustling city. I LOVE BREA and lived there for over a decade. I shot almost 100 of these unique sculptures and documented their location for the city of Brea and loved shooting objects for one of the first times. It was a great project and I am excited that the Orange County Register has featured my work. Check out the link below to see the amazing sculptures, and the ones I shot are credited. Thank you to Trinitee and the city of Brea for your write up and featuring me on the City Website and in the Newspaper.

I love Spring time shoots for families and little ones especially! Most families in Orange County reserve the end of the year (Oct-Dec) for family pictures, mainly for the annual Christmas card. However, I a must say Spring time is actually more colorful and alive. All of the blossoms come out and the grass is vivid green. Plus, I love the idea of sending Spring Cards instead of Christmas cards as well…..why not be the “trend setter” in your group?  I do mini shoot days for families in Spring as well as fall, these are days when you can get a photoshoot at half the price and still get full editing and full copyrights on hundreds of images! You cannot beat the 50% off price so take advantage of an upcoming Family Shoot Day! I also linked a few examples below of recent family shoots done in different locations.

>Congrats Ariel and Fed on their recent wedding at Villa Del Sol in downtown Fullerton on June 19th, 2010. Villa Del Sol has a Spanish style with great architecture and a quaint private feel. I absolutely love this wedding, they are a such a cute couple!!!! I love shooting in downtown Fullerton, I am so familiar with the area and there are so many different backdrops. It feels homey, quaint, and urban all at the same time. The Getting Ready’s were done at Lolo’s Boutique located in the Villa Del Sol building. The Florist for this wedding was Kelly with Lavenders Flowers, she is very creative and always does beautiful work. Lavenders Flowers is also located in the building along with the caterer, which is Cafe Hidalgo.The food was yummy and I love the privacy of the venue as well. I will blog about that venue next.  Enjoy the pics of this great wedding and very fun couple!
