Cousins…

We recently did a photo session of our niece, Emma Rose. All cheeks, as you can see. We decided to throw Isaiah into the mix, and together they had no idea what to do with eight unruly limbs. Hands were entangled, feet were playing footsie unintentionally, and they actually got along really well…

…until…

“Hey! You got candy?!”

More baby! That’s right! After months of not blogging since our last Isaiah post, we have another Isaiah post for you. (Currently working on a couple of weddings, an engagement session, and more to follow.)

Had to post that one first because it’s the face he makes when someone across the room has something he wants. Like candy, even though he doesn’t know he wants it yet.

“B” is for “Brooktown,” but it’s also for…

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

We’re surrounded by babies!!!

Cute needs no introduction.

But, just in case, this is our niece, Addison. She is now four months old with a brand new smile. Just lovely. :) :) :)

Evelyn at one week: Fallbrook newborn portraits

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:

Portraits in the Park

Last month, we headed down to Live Oak Park in Fallbrook for a couple of family sessions, the first in what we hope will become a series of “Portraits in the Park” afternoons. For more information, shoot us an e-mail. Until then, enjoy.

Happy New Year from the Pfingsten + Rosas families

bphoto — Fri, 01 Jan 2010 20:00:36 +0000

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…

Valley Center family portraits – the Crandalls

bphoto — Sun, 22 Nov 2009 07:38:21 +0000

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!!!

Aaaaand, the horse. In search of alfalfa. Not even vaguely interested in anything else but hay.
