[Picture Life] Carmen and Flint

Carmen, aka Sprocket Rocket, plays roller derby on my team High Tide Derby and she reached out to me to take photos of her and her little man Flint. For his 3rd birthday he got a pair of roller skates, ”just like momma”. So a day at the beach was the perfect way to capture sweet memories for these two with things like, a playground, sand, the ocean, and roller skating. I had a blast with this shoot because roller skating is a HUGE passion of mine so I got to combine my two biggest passions into one which was a dream.

Enjoy these photos!

[Picture Life] with the Stevens Family | Orange County Family Photographer

Amy reached out to me to take photographs on her family including the cutie, Bennett! There’s a great park right behind their backyard so we went on a little adventure, had dinner, and then bed time!

I love capturing a day for a family like this. It shows how everyone interacts together and is a great way to freeze this moment in time to cherish for years to come.

[Picture Life] with the Sanchez Tribe | Orange County Family Photographer

I met Katrina, David, and their oldest daughter Alana when she was about 4 or 5 years old. We met at a church we were all attending at the time and Alana enjoyed when I spun her around after service. We parted ways a few years ago and haven't been in contact too much since, so when I arrived at their ranch (aka Ranchez), it was a warm welcome as if I had been there dozens of times. All the kids warmed up to me pretty quickly and it was a joy to photograph them going about their Saturday morning.

Alana is now 10, Deluca is 5.5, Levi is 4, Xander is 2.5, and August was born in December. They are the sweetest family. Their house is full of love and community. Mama bear Katrina says, "Our goal for our tribe is to love God and love others, and to give our children rich childhood experiences through simple living on the Ranchez and quality home education."

It was a pleasure to photograph this family at home and give them photographs to cherish for a life time. If you are interested in booking your authentic family session, drop me a line!
