Holiday Mini Session- Santa Barbara Children's Photography

rebecca January 1, 2014

Happy New Year! Wow, now that the Holidays have come to a close I can finally take a breath and blog some of my favorite photo sessions of the season! This was by far the busiest season that I have had to date! Although it was pure craziness trying to get everything done in time, it was well worth my efforts. I loved seeing all the Holiday cards arriving in my mailbox... So sweet! Thank you to all my wonderful clients and friends for having me document the spirit of the season with your families! I just love this photo above taken of my dear friends and their adorable little family. What a happy boy!! Love you guys!

What a great photo shoot with a VERY sweet family!!! Thank you for having me capture these special moments of your adorable boys. It was a beautiful day in Santa Barbara... The sun was shining through a slight haze of clouds... A dream for any natural light photographer! I wish everyday was so beautiful! These two brothers were best buds and so much fun to photograph. Being a mother of two boys, my heart just melts when I see such a strong bond between brothers.

Children and Portrait Photographer- Playing Among the Oaks

rebecca January 6, 2013

You wouldn't believe we live in Southern California with the last month few months of rain and storms that have been rolling in. Although the weather has been a challenge, I was able to catch a few good hours with The Muench Family before another storm approached. I had the best time photographing this sweet family! Their little girl was slightly camera shy, but so adorable! She eventually warmed up to the camera and I got some terrific photographs of them all playing among the beautiful oak tree here in Santa Barbara. It is such a pleasure to live here with all the wonderful locations for outdoor photography... We really are lucky to live here!

Santa Barbara Family Photography- Fun with the Jeffery's

rebecca December 29, 2012

This was such a fun family photo shoot with Jennifer, Daniel, and their cute little guy Elijah! It was a beautiful day in sunny Santa Barbara after many days of rain. We had to postpone out photo shoot multiple times because of the weather, but we finally made it out on this gorgeous day! I just love these sweet pictures of their cute little family. A funny little story behind this shoot... As we were taking family pictures, the little boy ran up to this man and his dog. The little boy started to pet the dog and the man said to me that I should stand over by him, get down low, and shoot in the direction he was pointing... "That's the shot," he said! Having my own opinion on how I wanted to shoot, I did not pay much attention to his comment. The man's wife chimed in and said "You should listen to him. He's a director." Being somewhat stubborn, I ignored their comments and just made some small talk. As they walked away, the dad of the little boy said to me... "You know that was Martin Scorsese, right?" I knew he looked familiar, but just did not put it together at the time. I had to laugh to myself... How did I not recognize him!

The Alwood's- Children and Family Photography, Santa Barbara

rebecca December 6, 2012

I had a wonderful family photo shoot with the Alwood's over Thanksgiving weekend. I just adore these two sisters... They were so sweet and cute with one another. Their laughs and giggle were quite contagious! They put a smile on everyone's face throughout the entire photo shoot, making my job quite easy! The beautiful afternoon fog here in Santa Barbara always makes for the best natural light... It creates a dreamy surreal atmosphere which I just love!! For me, it doesn't get better than that!

Little Girls and Pink Dresses- Outdoor Family Photography, Santa Barbara

rebecca November 16, 2012

As a soon to be mother of two boys, I must say there is a part of my heart that melts when I get to photograph little girls in pretty dresses. I love the way they twirl around for the camera, so sweet and adorable! These two girls couldn't have been cuter with their big round eyes and pink dresses! It was a beautiful day for family photos at Chase Palm Park in Santa Barbara. The pictures turn out spectacular and will make one amazing Christmas card! The sun was shining and the cool breeze made us feel like fall is actually here to stay.

I photographed the most adorable little girl last month at Butterfly Beach in Montecito, CA. She had to have been the best 2 year old I've ever photographed... I think she had as much fun as I did!
