Changing Styles

So up to now I have been a very adamant about staying away from the washed out, pale faces, "vintage" look but its starting to grow on me. I am thinking, if it were MY portraits what would I like? And I've come to the conclusion that I would like my pictures to have some sort of a dreamy look to them not so much vintage washed up desaturated look, but more of a dramatic shadows, bold colors , interesting angles kind of look but that is just me. There are already a lot of photographers who do the vintage look so I am focusing on obtaining or creating actions that will reflect my creative style.

In California

Ok so I'm now in California and its taken me a little longer than expected to get my set up ready. I still have to register with the County of Orange as a business in order to do business here in California. Note to the wise I will be reevaluating my prices as California has different state taxes, sales taxes, that I need to include.. Sorry but its got to be legal, I know you guys understand operating a business is not cheap. And a cheap photographer is usually not legal. Email me for updated prices.

On top of that my computer is still not ready. *sigh* Slowly but surely we'll get there. I'll be doing my very first Newborn shoot this weekend (yay!!!!) and will be doing most of the editing at a borrowed computer so all is well.  Thank you to all my friends and fabulous clients for being so patient with me. I can't wait to make some lovely Fall portraits!!!

Tea Party Under a Tree - Rescheduled for Spring 2012

With high hopes of the rain subsiding myself and my little army or photography warriors went out Sunday morning only to be have our hopes poured on and soaked. Grapes, cookies and tea in hand we made our way back home. Please stay tuned for the make-up day for our Tea Party Under a Tree mini-session event to take place when we return from California Spring 2012.

 Anyone that knows me will attest to my obsession to Chandeliers. From restaurant ceilings, fine banquet halls, and even the dark hallways of the Haunted House at Disneyland I will never miss a chance to photograph a beautiful Chandelier.

For those of you who had to cancel, we hope to see you all Spring 2012 in your finest dress, shoes and accessories!

How gorgeous is this little princess that I had the pleasure of working with?

She was such a doll, totally cooperative and really liked holding the flowers I would hand her while shooting :D
