Manhattan Beach Lifestyle Family Photography
I met Noah and his family last weekend at their home in Manhattan Beach to take some photos of Noah for his 1st Birthday Party coming up. He was a total doll, I just loved his corduroy overalls and his adorable haircut :) After we took some photos of him at home and playing in his room we headed down to the beach to snap some of him playing in the sand and I'm so glad we did... Baby Noah LOVED playing in the sand! Here are a few of my favorites from their session :)
I met little Greyson last week and he left quite the lasting impression with those big blue eyes and chubby chubby cheeks! He was one of the most smiley little babies I've ever met and he was quite the little flirt too ;) Here are a few of my favorites from Mr. Greyson's session, can't wait to show you guys the rest!
As per our usual MO, lovelovelovelovelove this fam! Cute (ok adorable!) little Nicholas and Maddy and their parents absolutely made my day and I left with a big ol' smile on my face - you know the one - where you feel like you accomplished something creative and cool and good? That smile! Haha. They are the nicest family and I absolutely adore the images - I have learned that I love certain shots of "beautiful chaos" - I really get creatively snap-happy when I get to capture those moments of reality that are so, well, real - shots that I know these families are going to look back at (or at least I hope!) and just laugh or cry or whatever... it's just awesome and it's in those moments that I know we are capturing something timeless. It is fulfilling on some level. The family photo below is one of those. Don't worry guys - we also got some straight-up regular classic looking-at-the-camera portraits - but that one makes me grin. And these kids are just plain awesome - and can you believe those eyelashes? Like huge butterfly wings. They are so cute, and so easygoing. Thanks for being so awesome everyone - can't wait to share the rest! :)
