baby jake | six months later

baby jake was one of my first real newborn sessions just about six months ago. i was so excited to get to see this sweet boy again today and was in awe of how big he's gotten.

at one week old:


and today:


josh and jennie are simply fun to photograph. they're gorgeous and their sweet little family is so full of love.





my funky favorite of the session:

which one? | arroyo grande family photography

i can never decide which color edit i prefer... bright and colorful? black and white? desaturated antique? i think i love them all when the kids are this cute!

sweet baby dj... i was able to photograph him on day one and day seven of his life. remember his mama's maternity session with two friends?

i love these squished-up newborn shots:

i met this gorgeous family at a winery in shandon where dad, ben, works. i had the pleasure of taking drake's one year photos (here). and was just a little mesmerized by his eyes then. it turns out that all 3 kids (and mom!) have the same stunning pale blue/green eyes.





grant absolutely hamming it up for my camera. my 4.5 year old does things like this too... i have no idea where they get it!




i often find myself saying 'pretend you like each other' - sarcastically during my sessions. i'm still not sure if it was a serious statement to lexi or not...

sydney & noah | san luis obispo family photography

a few of sweet sydney and noah. they were pretty unsure of me at first, but i was thrilled to get hugs from them at the end of our session.





i love when families just go with my odd suggestions for angles... i'd love my own family portrait to look like this:

it's about the happiness | santa maria family photographer

two-year-old j grabbed my hand the minute his mama opened the door to show me around his house. he was excited and exuberant and not so interested in posed shots (me neither!) but we had a blast rolling in the grass.

the fam | arroyo grande family photographer

hi! i'm jasmine



i have two sweet daughters... logan is 4



and avery is 2



and of course there's the hubs



so here's how a session with me goes... we meet somewhere, i run around and act like a goof with your kids, their primary goal is not (as you might hope) to smile and look happy for the camera, at one point you think the whole session is a disaster, but i promise you it's not. kids are wonderful and spontaneous and unpredictable and they shine beautifully through lifestyle photography. nothing is more frustrating than trying to get kids to smile and say cheese for the camera, so i don't do that. so call me or email me or visit my website to see more of my work... but talk to me about getting your family in front of the camera and capture these amazing moments of childhood :)
