Happy Birthday Mojo

Happy Birthday to my sweet, furry friend. It was two years and four months ago we walked into Helen Woodward Animal Shelter and fell in love with our not-so-little dog. Tomorrow he will be three! The kids and I will be making home made dog biscuits and doing a little singing to celebrate his big day :) If anyone is ever looking to adopt a pet, we highly recommend Helen Woodward. They have all kinds of animals from horses to turtles and are a no-kill shelter. They also provide tons of educational workshops. http://www.animalcenter.org/

Carson turns 1

I have been photographing Carson since he was in his mommy's tummy. Now this little guy is 1-year-old! How time flies with these little ones. Needless to say, he wasn't a big fan of sitting still for our session. His two sisters and I chased him all around the park :) Thanks for the help ladies, and Happy Birthday Carson!!

Ervin Family

A couple of months ago I got to meet Angela and her family. She was hoping to get one last family portrait while her kids were still "kids". The following week their daughter left for New York and I'm sure they are missing her. Enjoy your last year with your son at home Ervin Family!

End of Summer

I have been out on the road with the Fino Fam all summer and have been terrible about updating. Here are a couple pics from our most recent beach trip.

Sneak Peek for Helene

Thanks for the fun afternoon Venegas kids! I managed to come home with a sunburn despite the late afternoon and the clouds, but the weather was absolutely perfect for an afternoon in La Jolla. Helene, I will let you see the rest of the pictures tomorrow. Until then, goodnight...

Beach Day

The clouds and gloom let up enough yesterday to allow for some good 'ol fashioned beach fun. The kids all went crazy in the surf and Max didn't mind chasing "the ladies" up and down the beach!

Mommy to Be

Nicole is a friend of my husband and I. She was in our wedding 8 years ago and is expecting her first, a little boy, this summer. She was in town for the weekend from Seattle and we were lucky enough to have the coolest clouds and weather to shoot at the beach!
