Wow, I love this time of year because I’m always so busy photographing family sessions! I took these last week at Audubon Park  – I LOVED the colors that The Giardina’s decided on for their shoot. Peacock color scheme! It was Mom, Dad, 4 daughters, their significant others and 2 grandkids! Whenever I see a family full of daughters, it makes me wish I had a sister! They were giggling and laughing with each other the whole time. Loved their bond!

On a side note, it’s funny because out of my group of really close 6-8 girlfriends, the majority of us are the only girl in our family with brothers as siblings. Sometimes I think that’s why I’ve remained really close with my girlfriends over the past 10-15 years. (because we all craved having that sisterly bond – so as friends, we’ve found that with each other)

Thank you to The Giardina Family – what an honor it was to document this special time for you guys! Enjoy the Holidays, your family is beautiful!

I’ve had the pleasure of photographing sweet Riley for her Newborn, 6 month and 1 year photos! This time we took some family portraits and added Mom, Donna and Dad, Scott in for some fun! We took these at Audubon park last Friday afternoon, it was a gorgeous day :) It’s been fun getting to see all of my clients from this past year who also booked a Christmas session. Looking forward to watching cute little Riley continue to grow! Here are some of my favs from the day:

Last week I headed to Belle Chase, LA to photograph The Perez Family. They have a beautiful piece of property with an old rustic barn that I just loved! I could have photographed there all day. If I had their home, I would never need to leave the house for shoots :) They had so many trees and interesting things to shoot in front of. Loved it! We took the entire Perez Family including spouses and grandchildren, then we did more of Kelly’s family and her two boys! They are cute as can be. It’s always nice to photograph some place new  – I really enjoyed my shoot at their home :)

Here are some I loved:

I had a great time last week photographing The Knox Family! Hillary emailed me saying that she was happy she stumbled upon my website! She was looking to take photos of her family while she and her sister were in town for Thanksgiving! It was so nice to meet these guys, we shared lots of laughs. It was a tad windy, which had the girls eyes watering, but soon it calmed down and we were good to go! Overall, it was nice day for photos :) Here are some of my favs!

I photographed the Mahia Family last week and they were precious! We took these at City Park and it was a beautiful day. This family is good friends with The Burke Family that I photographed a few weeks back. It’s always so nice to get to photograph groups of friends :) I am finally caught up with all Wedding editing and now it’s just full on portrait editing and Wedding album design.  Well at least for the next 2 weeks until my December Wedding. Moving right on through – I photographed 6 Family sessions this past week!!! Phewwww, it was fun though! (Woke up at 6:45am this morning to start my day of editing- needed to get work done early so I could be wrapped up in time to tailgate today!!) Jen=not a morning person! Saint’s game though, Monday night football! WHO DAT!

Here are my favs from their session:
