Lauryn was photographed at Seaport Village, a cute shopping center near downtown San Diego. I haven’t been there in years! I used to work at the cookie shop formerly known as Paradise Bakery. It was nice walking around, taking pictures and hanging out with Lauryn and her parents.
Lauryn’s mom is my oldest friend, Allyson. She and I met when we were just about Lauryn’s age. And for those of you who know Allyson, her daughter is practically a carbon copy of her! Too cute!




Everyone, please meet Princess – a perfect name Lauryn picked for this beautiful horse.

I love how the photos came out! You truly captured Lauryn’s personality! They’re awesome and I can’t wait to share them! Allyson

Another lovely collaboration with LeAnne (make-up) and Rebecca (hair)! Last August, we focused on vintage allure, with finger waves, cute curls and red lips. Umala and Erika were rockin’ it!
LeAnne Sims, Rebecca Richard and I collaborated with Sarah to create some pretty portraits.

Sunset Cliffs is a beautiful scenic area in San Diego – my hometown. Bonnie and Mike wanted pregnancy pictures with their 3rd and last child. Bonnie didn’t have any pictures taken when she was pregnant with her first 2 children so these pictures were extra special.
