DUARTE, CA CHILDRENS PHOTOGRAPHER : One Of My Favorite Things....

One of my favorite things about being a photographer is reconnecting with old friends and sharing the joy of some of their most exciting moments. My friend Allison and I grew up on the same street as teenagers. I remember many sleep overs where we would bump KROQ tunes and talk about all her cool band posters on the wall. She now lives in Arizona with her husband. I am beyond honored that at her last visit to California, she decided to hire me to take her maternity photos. 

I hope that one day I get to take pictures of their sweet baby girl, Emily. Although after the quick photo lesson I gave Pat (Daddy-to-be),  I suspect he will be capturing shots like crazy. It was a fun afternoon and I enjoying taking advantage of the "magic light" Pasadena seems to have. And now for my favorite shot....
