Shelby and Josh Are Expecting A Little Girl!

Beautiful Couple, Shelby and Josh are expecting their first child in April. Josh knows that his little girl is going to have him wrapped around her little finger. Shelby began the nesting period by going all out decorating her daughter's nursery...I can't wait to see it. We had a lovely day walking around the Newport Beach area, dodging spiders and ticks, and nameless other critters. Thank you for indulging me with your carefreeness. I am thrilled to meet your little one.

Heidi and Derek are Expecting!

Gorgeous couple, Heidi and Derek are expecting their first child in October...a little boy! I can just imagine how beautiful he is going to be. Watch out Knox, a new cutie's coming to town. HA!

I really had a wonderful time photographing this couple. We shot in Ladera Ranch at their home and in surrounding neighborhood's. It is quite breathtaking there...I definitely will consider buying a home in that city.

Thank you Heidi for giving me permission to BLOG the more intimate pictures we took. You look amazing! I can't wait to meet the little man, and I am so looking forward to photographing his welcome home. Congrats!

Baby Guttierez is Coming Soon!

Julie and Aaron are having a baby, and it's a girl! They are having a difficult time choosing a name. I even went through all of the names in my phone book for Julie, but nothing stuck. She assured me that she most definitely won't do a Gwyneth Paltrow, and name her daughter Pear or Grape or any other type of fruit for that matter.

Julie and Aaron were married three years ago when I had the honor of shooting their wedding. And what a privilege it was to shoot their maternity portrait session. Julie really is radiant. Makes me miss pregnancy. Awwww! Aaron, you look great as well. HA!

I am so happy for you both, and I can't wait to meet your new addition. Best of luck to you as you begin the next journey of your life.

The Mascuzzio Family

My good friends, The Mascuzzio's, are expecting their second child. This time around, they have been blessed with a girl. I can't wait to meet their new addition. It has been a joy getting to see their son Nicholas grow up. He is a dream come true. Previously, I photographed Kim and Kevin's wedding, Kim's first maternity portraits, Nicholas' welcome home, family portraits and Nicholas' first birthday and first Halloween costume. And now I have the great pleasure of photographing this new milestone in their lives. I am thrilled and look forward to documenting Natalia's welcome home. Congratulations!
