A Baby Early Life At Home - Family Lifestyle Session

Newborn sessions are best in your comfortable nest. Access to bathroom, wardrobe in case of spilling, snacks, water, a little rest in the middle? No worries. No need to be extra dressed up...

A lifestyle session to capture beautiful portraits but also record a time that is going too fast. The early month of parenthood are usually a blur!

A Family Session by the Cliff in Palos Verdes, Los Angeles

Against the stunning backdrop of the Pacific Ocean in Palos Verdes, Carissa and Brandon gathered for a photo session during sunset.

I worked to capture candid moments as the family enjoyed the breathtaking view. With the sun setting over the horizon, the warm tones of the sky and the ocean provided a picturesque setting.

I loved the warm hues of this sunset, the genuine smiles of the family and the cutest of all: Dani!

Boho Studio Downtown LA Family Session

I believe that the most powerful photographs are the ones that tell a story. In this session, I aimed to capture the little moments that truly reflect the love and connection within this family. From the tender kisses exchanged to the playful interactions, every detail was carefully documented.
