Sweet Baby Quinn | Oakland newborn photographer

January 30, 2011

In my opinion, Mike may be one of the most romantic husbands around. He contacted me at the end of last year. His wife was pregnant with their first child and he wanted to surprise her with something special for Christmas. I LOVE it. I’m a big fan of gifts in general, but I was tickled to be a part of one.

6 days after little Quinn made her debut I headed out to the Oakland Hills to capture her lovely images. Mike and Jenny were expecting some calm, sleepy baby shots, but Quinn absolutely had other ideas. She was awake and feisty for the entire 3 and half hours I spent with her. Watch out Mike, I’m pretty sure Quinn won’t ever have a problem speaking her mind.

I love how much of her big personality we were able to capture.

There is something about a photo of crying babies that just melts my heart. I promise we picked little Quinn up as soon as I snapped this capture.

And you look amazing Jenny, really and truly. I wish I looked that good 6 days after giving birth!

A family in bloom {Berkeley maternity photographer}

January 8, 2010

As I come up on my child’s first birthday, I’m starting to reminisce fondly on my pregnancy. I really, really enjoyed being pregnant, feeling the kicks, bonding with the little life inside me, and just relishing in the fact that for that little while, I was all he had. I’m not quite ready to start thinking about more children for myself, but I’ve noticed that I’m really enjoying my recent maternity sessions. I find a pregnant woman to be incredibly beautiful, lush, and fascinating.

Rachel’s session was doubly fun because her daughter S was one vivacious and happy little girl. She was meant to be in front of a camera! We had a ball rearranging her living room to create an in home studio, jumping on the bed, and even basking in bubble baths, all for the sake of some gorgeous lifestyle images. Thank you Rachel, for letting me into your home and allowing me to get to know your beautiful family.
