Fun around the South Bay

This past Saturday I took Caydan and drove around town looking for new places to take pictures....I didn't end up finding anything - just some of the same places I've already done photos.....BUT, since I have a new camera and new editing techniques, it feels like they're new locations all over again! :)

Here's some of my favorites below....the photo of Caydan sitting on the bridge with the giant smile on his face - that's a new editing technique I'm working on....I've seen other tons of other photos edited similarly, but I could never figure out how they did it....but I've tapped into it a bit here....I love the look, very retro.  Like a photo from the 50's or something (lol, I could totally have my decade wrong here though!). :)

Anyways, here's my favorites that I took....I'm seriously considering getting him into modeling, probably later this year because I'm going to have a bunch of free time open up for me then. :) :)  What do you think?  Could he make it as a child model?? :)

Oh - I almost forgot to mention his cry-baby pics...he is very sensitive sometimes...so if I tell him that he's not listening to me (which is constantly! But what do you expect from a 4 yr old...) then he gets upset and says that he'll listen...he doesn't like to be scolded at all...and he cries at the drop of a hat....so I took some pics because he was so cute crying. :)

The B Family (continued)

I almost forgot how much I loved this shoot til I went back through them today to edit...there were so many favorites that I just couldn't pick a few...there's a bunch here. :) :)
My favorite part has got to be the giant hot pink tutu...loooove it. :) :)

The "B" Family

This morning I met with two beautiful twin girls, their jubilant big sister, and their fabulous parents. They introduced me to a gorgeous new location that overlooks all of the South Bay, L.A., and on a clear day - all the way out to Malibu!

In addition to a spectacular location, they also brought tutu's for all 3 of their girls!! For those people connected on my facebook site, you may have seen recently that I posted a note about really wanting to take pictures of kids in tutu's...well this family didn't even see that post, yet they brought tutu's!! Talk about making my day! :) Even better - the big sister's tutu was EXTRA fluffy and just so fun! :)

Another thing that I was really astounded by....I was able to witness that bond that twins have. When we got the twins side by side they both turned to each other and put their heads together...then they would kiss each other and just keep pushing their heads together. It was amazing to witness this because you could see that there was definitely this unseen connection between the two of them that they could feel. A beautiful thing. :)

Below is a sneak peek at the pics...the twins were a bit taken back by all the camera commotion and just wanted to be with mom and dad...so we got a lot of crying pics (which are also super cute and I'll post some later), but we did manage to get some happy baby pictures which are always preferred. :)
