Williams Family :: Grayson Is One!

I had the pleasure of shooting the Williams family again for Grayson's one year birthday. You can see their previous session here. This time, Jess let me in on one of her secret shooting spots and let's just say I was IN LOVE. Appropriate since this is what little G was wearing!

 

 Hehe. I think this family session is by far one of my favorites, not only because of the location, lighting, etc, but because you can just feel the love that they have for each other and for their little blessing. You can see some of my favorites here and if you get a chance you must check out Jessica's blog for pictures from his adorable party and some of her favorites from our session.

 

 

 One of my FAVEs!

 

Happy boy!

Thanks Jess for another amazing session. It's always a pleasure to capture your family memories!! I seriously love all these photos!

Jacob's 1st Birthday!

I recently had the pleasure of shooting a first birthday party for this handsome guy:

 It was actually his second party (lucky duck had one in Hawaii the week before) and it was a traditional Korean party at a Chinese restaurant in Anaheim (awesome food btw). Dad is Korean and mom is Chinese so it was a nod to both sides of his heritage. He and mom wore traditional Korean attire and the party included a traditional Korean game, Doljabi.

 It was an intimate afternoon with family and friends, coming together to celebrate Jacob's first year. The family was so genuinely nice and made me (the hired help) feel so welcome. Everyone laughed and had a great time. I even discovered that Tracy (Jacob's mom) is from Hawaii too! Must be why we got along so well. The party was quick but I think I managed to get quite a few shots of the birthday boy...

  

 

 

Tracy, thank you so much for contacting me to photograph Jacob's party. I had such a great time with you and your family! Can't wait to meet your new little guy as well!
