Sweet Baby Annie

Remember these glowing parents-to-be and the gorgeous baby belly?

Now they're glowing as parents with their sweet daughter Annie! I could not get over there fast enough to take her newborn pictures because she is one gorgeous baby. And to see Nicole and Erez as parents was so much fun...they were were pretty laid back and totally enjoying themselves. It's such an amazing "before and after" experience to go through with expecting parents and getting to meet the little one that everyone only dreamed and wondered about. So here she is - Miss Annie Iyla!

One of my all time faves! And it inspired this, from the son of our mutual friend:

"I'm playing Baby Annie!"

Baby M - Newborn Photos and Baby Naming

Back in December, I had the pleasure of meet Cathy, Todd and their new baby girl. We did a newborn session at their home and she was wide awake and happy the whole time! And then a few weeks later I had the privilege of photographing her baby naming. It was a beautiful ceremony held at Cathy's parents' house and it was wonderful learning more about the amazing people in their family for whom she was named.

W-G and W-L Families

It was so much fun to do a shoot for this lovely family. Yael and Tamar wanted photos of everyone together - sisters, husbands, dad, and cutie pie cousins - so we took the opportunity of Tamar, Josh and Ayelet's visit to Los Angeles to make it happen. And just as I was pulling up this insane fog rolled in!! While usually more overcast skies make for better photos, this fog was something else. It was quite challenging because it was actually pretty bright, but I guess that goes to show that you don't have control over everything the way you want! Anyway, I captured some really sweet shots of this fun group - here are some of my faves!
