Sneak Peek for Chan Family

Just 1 year ago, I remember taking my niece, L out for her 1 year portraits. I can't believe I'm already taking her brother's pictures for his dol! He was all smiles after we realized that he didn't like grass. He made the session really easy for me - since he can't walk yet, I didn't have to chase him at all! My 5 month pregnant belly thanks him!!

What's with this weather?

My niece, C was over for a sleepover last weekend and asked if I could take some pictures of her. How can I ever say no to that? I LOVE kids who want their pictures taken! Unfortunately, we only spent 5 minutes outside due to the wind and we were freezing! Quoting my daughter, "Mommy, summer is over." I think she's right. It's over before it ever started!

Sneak Peek for Park Family: Part 2

The Park family returned for the second half of their photo session at the beautiful Clubhouse in Dublin. Although it was a windy day, little A had no problem exploring the grounds and the community playground. She was a trooper - even with multiple outfit changes, she kept a smile on her face for me. We had a fun evening running around and smelling the "bangoo flowers!" 

Always be prepared!

Danny tells me that his dad used to always tell him to "BP" (Be Prepared.) Good thing I've learned my lesson over the years that a computer can be very unstable. 2 days ago, my beloved iMac died. Luckily, Danny has taught me to always save my important documents to the NAS. What's a NAS? I'm glad you asked. Go to: www.nasguy.com for more info! Anyway, if it weren't for the NAS, I would have lost critical, critical photos - photos that I haven't even shared with my clients yet! My tech guy, a.k.a. Danny will be rebuilding my machine today so I can have my glorious huge screen back. I'm currently typing on the computer in the master bedroom and the colors on the screen are so bleh. Yes, I'm picky but that's my job. Hopefully by tomorrow, I'll be able to share some sneak peeks from my latest session. 

Sisterly Love

I realized today that since I've spent 6 weeks in bed throwing up, my kids pictures have been sorely neglected. I finally lugged my heavy camera to Lake Elizabeth in Fremont today and took a few shots. I was SO exhausted from walking around the huge park! I have absolutely no stamina - not looking forward to labor! I was so happy to get this shot because I didn't pose them! Yes, they're sweaty and Audrey's hair is all over her face...but Audrey just naturally put her arm around Kiki and Kiki in turn put her hand on her sister's leg. So cute! Hope they will be this good with their new sibling!

Sneak peek for the Park Family

It has been a long time since my last post. I have a good excuse though! I've been in the trenches of morning sickness and am finally starting to see the light. It felt so good to get back to work with a mini portrait session for my friend. Her mom was visiting for a short time and wanted to get some pictures of her 2 girls with their grandmother. We did a short session in the studio for some traditional portraits and I'm looking forward to part 2 of our session when we let loose and have some fun outside!
