Newborn Portraits – The Saucedo Family Welcomes Lilly!!

Austin — Thu, 06 May 2010 01:12:22 +0000

I shot Kelly’s Maternity photos a few months back along with David and Kiara and it was such a great day so I was very excited when Kelly told me she wanted to do some fun newborn photos in their home. It was such a great day being there with their family and watching them interact with their newest beautiful addition: Lilly. She is an adorable little girl and it was such a delight to be there to capture some of the first family photos for the Saucedo family. Enjoy!

Abdella Family Portrait ~ Studio Shoot

Austin — Thu, 28 Jan 2010 16:28:08 +0000

This was a fun shoot! I met Betsega Abdella last summer at a wedding I was shooting that she was in and I was excited when she contacted me about shooting some family portraits for her. I was also really excited when I finally got to meet her whole family. We had a blast just playing around in the studio for a couple of hours and they were all so relaxed and easy going that it was really easy to get some great shots. Plus they all have such fun personalities and you can tell that they really enjoy being with each other (which always makes family portraits so much more fun!). I really enjoyed this shoot and I hope that I get to work more with all of them in the future! Thanks!

Trever and Jenn ~ Maternity/Family Portrait, Arroyo Seco Park – Pasadena, CA

Austin — Tue, 24 Nov 2009 20:05:53 +0000

This was a crazy fun shoot! Trever and Jenn really liked some of the photos they had seen from the Arroyo Seco Park shoots I have done in the past and wanted to use that for our location, but they really made the shoot what it was! They are both so funny and goofy and I am sure that when lil’ Jack (their son to be) gets here he is going to have the time of his life with his folks! I had a hard time narrowing down the photos, so you will just have to endure them until I can decided which ones to take down.

Andi and Nathan Family Portrait, Arroyo Seco Park – Pasadena, CA

I actually went to school with Andi way back in the day (Ok so it was only ’04) and recently reconnected with her at Bravo Salon where she cuts my hair! She is an amazing stylist and if you ever need a great cut be sure to check her out! I was very excited when she and her husband approached me about doing some fun photos to send to friends and family. We wanted to do something fun and in a cool location and I immediately thought of the Arroyo Seco Park here in Pasadena. It is a little gold mine tucked away in east Pasadena that is perfect for shooting! We had so much fun exploring and walking around (definitely got our exercise) and it wasn’t hard to find some great locations for the photos. Here is some of what we got:
