Elsner Family @ Crystal Cove | OC Family Photographer

Meet the Elsners...such a cool family! We had fun down at the beach for our session and I couldn't have asked for better weather/lighting or for better subjects! I have had fun going through the images from their session...and went a little crazy on this sneak peek...but I hope you enjoy how they turned out!








I think this next one is possibly my favorite shot...BEAUTIFUL family!



In the following photo, the kids were spotting dolphins...and every time I would look, the dolphins would be gone...oh well! But I love that I caught Nathan's cute dimple in this one!





This kid was DETERMINED not to smile...I think it almost made him more adorable!

Brittany + Bronson = Married!

Brittany is my niece, and a few months ago we were all up in Utah together and I got to shoot their engagement pictures...and then they asked me to come to Florida and shoot their wedding too! It was so much fun...I felt a little bit guilty leaving Brad alone with the boys while I was off on my adventure in Orlando! It was fun being a part of their wedding and meeting Bronson's family. Shooting a wedding is a lot of work and not really my specialty -- in fact this was my very first time doing a wedding. I had a lot of fun though and really hope you guys like how your pictures came out! Here is a bit of a sneak peek...there are a TON more...but here are just a few to give you a taste of what is to come... (click to enlarge photos)

Jones Family | OC Family Photographer

When we got together with Kay's parents and siblings for the big group shots a while ago, we postponed doing her little family until later since they are local. So here are a few from our session...we found this cool wall that is unfortunately temporary! Poor Reese was an unhappy little one pretty much the entire time...but we all did our best! I love this first picture because it's kind of deceiving...she kind of looks like she's just laughing and playing peek-a-boo...but if you look closely you'll see tears streaming down her cheek!!!!! Max was pretty mellow...he's such a cutie!!!!!!!!!! Anyway...I hope you like them and I love you guys!
