Baby Ryleigh | Sacramento Baby Photography

March 11, 2010 – 5:35 pm

She’s heeeeeeere! Baby Ryleigh arrived right on time—or should I say—ahead of time! Proud mama and papa were very happy and they seemed surprisingly rested and full of energy the day I arrived. Ryleigh was not too sleepy…day 4 in the world and she was quite wide akake but we managed to get a few with her “sleepy heavy lids” towards the end of the session.

I’m excited to see her grow—we will be photographing her next two big milestones in life soon: sitting around 6 months and walking around one year! Watch for this adorable little one to sprout here wings soon…

Here are a few from the newborn session:

BABY CHARLIE-sacramento newborn photographers

January 31, 2010 – 11:15 am

MEET CHARLIE!

He’s adorable—and super cuddly! The day I photographed Charlie he was perfectly sleepy and mom and dad were perfectly in love with him…he had only been home from the hospital for a few days. The home was super warm just for little Charlie—never mind that the rest of us were sweating bullets—little Charlie was snug as a bug in a rug! Which made it all worth it!

Photographing newborns makes me smile—and almost want another baby! But I get my fix during the time that I spend with them and then I’m all better LOL! I always have a special basket in tow…this day was no different.

So without further delay…here’s CHARLIE:

A FAMILY AFFAIR

January 27, 2010 – 2:33 pm

This session was all about documenting Maria as an 8th grader heading into high school soon…so mom and dad were very open to including a few family shots! While planning this session, Tiffany described a few images she saw on our website that were “vintage” and “urban” and wanted to create that same feel in her own images—so she was very open to doing an urban on-location session.

One of the most important factors when creating images with multiple subjects is choosing the clothing correctly so that the colors blend well. I gave Tiffany some direction and ideas and she came up with an AWESOME color pallet! Great textures, styles and color combos.

This was a brisk morning but the sun was out and it was a great day for a session!

BABY JACK & MOMMY & DADDY

November 18, 2009 – 8:57 pm

MEET JACK…oh, and mommy and daddy! He’s adorable and he’s now walking! I photographed this family on a brisk fall day…and the fall leaves on the front lawn combined with the brisk cool air was perfect for the adorable little hat and coat mom chose for Jack! In fact, she did FABULOUS with their entire wardrobe choice for this session.

Jack has a sweet smile and loved the leaves…and now that he’s walking he wasn’t too thrilled to stay in one place too long so we captured him just being himself—fast and curious! :)

Meet baby Jack and his mommy and daddy (and thanks to both of them for their patience with this post!!)

DESTINATION: MONTANA | sacramento photographers

July 9, 2009 – 2:26 am

Destination Session? No problem! Especially if it’s my sister’s family in Montana! :) The special occasion was the graduation of my nephew Ryan and it was time for family portraits too! One thing about Montana—there’s no lack of scenery and beauty!

We always have a great time shopping for their portrait session—they really get into it—we went to church, ate hoagies and cheese fries at Hoagieville, and then shopped for the entire afternoon using their GORGEOUS home decor as the foundation of the color scheme. We found Bailey’s adorble olive green shirt dress first so everything revolved around little miss princess! ;) Very fitting…”I know, huh, Bailey!?!” (wink, wink).

For those of you that don’t know, my sister is also a professional photographer (we grew up with grandparents who were professional photographers, so it was a natural fit for both of us!)…her website is located at Heidi Z Photography and she loves senior portraits too!

The joy of toddlers | sacramento photographers

February 10, 2009 – 8:32 pm

I just have to say that anytime I have a toddler—or two—on the schedule for a session, I know I can skip working out at the gym (or, I can skip the GUILT of NOT going to the gym) on that particular day! Getting down on their level and relating to them, playing with them, and photographing them is HARD WORK I tell ya! But oh the joys…I love my job.

This family is FULL of energy…even mom and dad. They work hard and they play hard and I enjoyed every minute of this session. Here are a few photos from a recent session with the B. family:
