How cute is Audrey (and her baby sister too)?  She really reminds me of a mini Audrey Hepburn - she is just too adorable!

Laura is the owner of Kissui - a children’s boutique in downtown Redlands and I really enjoyed spending time with her little girls.  Jet was out sick that day so he tagged along and everything he did made Audrey laugh and laugh - lucky me!

Check out the sassy little tutus the girls are wearing - Laura just got them in her store.  If you live locally run by and pick up a few, they are less than $15 bucks each - perfect for some christmas presents.

I hope that two times the charm. Some kids are easily distracted - but not Dakota.  She is probably the most focused child I have ever meet and I think that day, she was focused on ignoring me - too bad I was not interesting enough to catch her attention.

My crushed feelings set aside, we still had a good shoot.

I would like for you all to meet one of my heros.

Yoli was not only a coworker and a mentor - but she also helped to care for me as one of my nurses during my battle with cancer. I do not think I will ever be able to find the words to properly thank her for the care and encouragement that I received. Even after I was no longer a patient or a coworker on 9200 - Yoli took a personal interest me, my recovery and my new venture into the world of photography.  She has been the little angel on my shoulder making sure that I follow up and take care of myself- which does get exhausting after five year… because I just want to be “normal” and want the past to go away.  Enough said - I will need to write a book someday.

Yoli, it’s funny when you look at these photos remembering how the session started - too funny!  I really did enjoy spending the time with your amazing family.  

Thanks!

So I did a bad thing again - I offered this little sweetie a itty bitty lollipop in exchange for his hat. Sorry to say, he got both his hat and the lollipop - I guess I need to work a bit more on my bargaining skills.

Well here is just a little look at some of the off the wall photos from our shoot - more to hit shortly.

Hmmmmm… I wonder what school Kaitlyn has got her mind and would like to someday attend? 

Well - you’re right! Dad attended USC and Kaitlyn has become one of there biggest fans.  Go Kaitlyn, I know that before we know it you will be walking those halls just like your dad did.
