Dori had her first ultrasound last month, and this is what it told us. Couldn’t be happier. :)

Talk about melting hearts and taking names. This little guy was a rock star when we met with Jay and Cassidy to take his picture last month. He slept through just about the whole session, and when he wasn’t sleeping he was just looking around and being cute. We don’t need to say *how* cute, because… well, you’ll see for yourself. Comments are always welcome about how melted your heart was by Baby Austin and his amazing parents. (Thanks, guys! You were seriously amazing!)

Here’s to a long life of big smiles and sound sleep, Austin.

Last month, we had the pleasure of meeting 9-day-old Evelyn. She was so sweet and only fussed a little bit as we moved her around and played with the light. And we even got her big brother, Sebastian, in the frame for a few minutes toward the end. What an amazing family; thanks guys (and especially Evelyn) for the great shoot!

I have two favorites from that day, and this is one:

And this is my other (most) favorite:

Back in November, Tom’s mother asked if we would do the annual honor of photographing the Pfingsten/Rosas families. This would be a particularly special session, the first time since mom and dad moved into their new house that we’ve gathered for pictures. So we chose a spot in their new neighborhood, Shady Grove, and commenced with the shooting. We even got a few good pictures of us–thanks Annie!

We start with Tom’s three nephews, who have had plenty of time in front of the camera over the years…

A couple weeks ago, Brittnee called us to ask if we still had time for a quick pre-Christmas session, and quick was all we had time for–we were leaving for the Philippines in a matter of days. But we set a time, the rain let up long enough for the sun to shine on us for an hour, and we captured some really cute moments between Jon, Brittnee and their daughter.

I’ve known about Los Jilgueros Preserve in Fallbrook for many years. It’s always been a nice place for a quiet walk, but this was the first time we’d done pictures there. Jon and Brittnee actually chose the location, and we’re so glad they did! We’ll definitely be going back for more!

A few weeks ago, Kimm asked if we could do a family session at their house in Valley Center. After agreeing and setting a date, I asked, “How many kids do you have?” The answer: Four.

Four sweet, amazing children–who apparently really enjoy smiling. Or maybe we just caught them on a good day. Either way, if the sun hadn’t gone down I could have gone on taking pictures of these kids for a long, long time. As you can see, the setting was great, too. The horse is theirs (our first family + equine shoot), as are the corrals, trees, and various settings you see in the pictures.

Crandall family, thanks for having us. We had a blast!!!
